Single crystal growth of new Organic compounds and their Characterization for third order Nonlinear optical applications

Abstract

Single crystals have become an inevitable part for the fast newlinedevelopment of science and technology In recent years nonlinear optical newlineNLO crystals have been a great deal of interest due to their potential newlineapplications mainly in the field of optoelectronics and photonic technologies newlineLarge sized single crystals are essential for device fabrication Hence efforts newlinewere taken to grow large single crystals in short duration with low cost newlineOrganic compounds possess advantages over inorganic compounds in many newlineextends Several organic compounds exhibit large NLO response and in many newlinecases order of magnitude is better than widely known inorganic materials In newlinethis interesting context organic nonlinear materials have been accepted as newlineforefront candidates for fundamental and applied investigations involving in newlinea joint effort mainly by chemists, material scientists crystal growers and newlineoptical engineers newline newline
