Synthesis, growth and electrical characterization of l-tartaric acid–nicotinamide (LTN) single crystals

Structure, crystalline perfection, mechanical, second harmonic generation efficiency, laser damage threshold and piezoelectric properties of bis nicotinamidium bis D-tartrate 1.25-hydrate single crystals

“…However, Athimoolam and Natarajan reported the structure of bis (nicotinamidium) bis ((2R,3R)-tartrate) 1.25-hydrate [12] which is matched with lattice parameters of previous report [11]. Growth and some characterization studies of LTN single crystals were reported in the literature [13][14][15].…”

“…The SHG efficiency of the grown crystal is found to be 1.24 times that of KDP, which is higher than some of other tartrate organic compounds [23][24][25][26][27][28][29] and less than LTN [14] as presented in Table 2. Plenty of hydrogen bond interactions are present in the title compound structure.…”

Crystal growth and characterization of semiorganic single crystals of l-histidine family for NLO applications

“…Hence, from this study, it can be said that the crystals can retain texture up to 174 1C and LHHC has slightly more stability than LHHCTA. It is interesting to see that the grown crystals have more thermal stability than that of some known crystals [12,17,18]. The melting point of LHHC is much greater than that of previously reported one [12], which may due to the purity of raw materials used in the present investigation.…”

“…L-tartaric acid (LTA) single crystal has been grown and its SHG efficiency was found to be nearly equal to that of the standard potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) [17]. Following this, L-tartaric acid-nicotinamide (LTN) has been grown successfully and the SHG efficiency was found to be increased 1.3 times than that of pure tartaric acid [18]. Since the Tartaric acid itself is a NLO material, it is chosen to dope with LHHC to study the effect of tartaric acid on the properties of the L-histidine hydrochloride monohydrate single crystals.…”

Growth and characterization of an adduct 4-aminobenzoic acid with nicotinic acid

“…Current interest in device fabrication has stimulated the need for newer and efficient organic crystals. In organic molecular crystals, the energy of van der Waals interactions or even hydrogen bonds are responsible for the intermolecular cohesion of the lattice that is, orders of magnitude lower than that of intramolecular chemical bonds [1][2][3]. An organic crystal has innumerable potential application in telecommunications, frequency doubling, optical computing and also acts as a source in electro-optics.…”
