“…Some procedures have been used in many previous works to modify and enhance the properties of ZTS crystal such as heating [12], mixing [17,[23][24][25], and doping [18,22,[26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34]. Previous, in terms of heating, it was found that increasing temperature leads to changing the optical parameters of ZTS crystal [12].…”

“…One from these studies reported that the phosphate mixed ZTS crystal may be a better NLO material for SHG [17]. Another study demonstrated that 10 mol% of phosphate mixed ZTS crystal has better SHG efficiency than pure ZTS [23]. In addition, magnesium sulfate [24] and urea [25] mixed ZTS crystals have been studied and compared with pure ZTS crystal.…”

Zinc tris-thiourea sulfate (ZTS) single crystals, pure and doped with different concentrations of cobalt, were synthesized and grown by the slow evaporation technique of supersaturated aqueous solutions at 315 K. Co 2+ concentration in the solution was 2, 4 and 6 mol%. Optical transmittance was measured for the obtained crystals as a function of wavelength in the range of 190-900 nm. The present investigation shows that doping ZTS crystal with Co 2+ modifies its optical properties. The absorption coefficient of ZTS crystal exhibits an exponential dependence on photon energy following Urbach relation. Doping ZTS crystal with Co 2+ changes the values of optical transmittance, cut off wavelength, absorption coefficient, optical energy gap, Urbach tail energy and steepness parameter. The changes are systematic i.e. the mentioned optical parameters increase or decrease continuously with increasing Co 2+ concentration in the growth solution. The electrical conduction of ZTS crystal is increased with cobalt doping. The Urbach tail energy changes reversely with the optical energy gap.

“…In recent years, organometalic non linear optical (NLO) materials have attained immense appeal form researchers due to a range of their technological applications in photonic field [1]. Zinc tris (thiourea) sulfate is one of the most important organometalic non linear optical crystals having applications in laser experiments and for second harmonic generation (SHG).…”

Pure and potassium sulfate doped Zinc tris-Thiourea sulfate (ZTS) crystals were grown by single diffusion gel technique. The morphological alteration was occurred as a result of doping. An elemental confirmation was performed by using Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis (EDAX). An orthorhombic structure of both crystals was confirmed and the value of lattice parameters was calculated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The presence of functional groups was obtained by FT-TR analysis. Vickers micro hardness study was carried out for both crystals and it was founded that doped crystal was harder than pure crystal. Photoluminescence study gave confirmation of insulating nature of both crystals. Second harmonic Generation efficiency was confirmed by Kurtz-Perry powder method and it gave result of enhancement of SHG efficiency of doped ZTS crystal.
