摘要:Single crystal growth of γ-glycine has been grown by solution growth technique. The lattice parameters and crystal system of the grown crystals were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The functional groups present in the grown crystal were identified by FT-IR spectral analysis. The optical property of the γ-glycine crystal is studied by UV-Visible spectrum. Optical constants such as band gap, refractive index, extinction coefficient and electrical susceptibility were calculated to analyze the optical property from UV-Visible spectrum. The thermal analyses revealed good thermal stability of the material thus proving its suitability for NLO applications. The second harmonic generation (SHG) test has been confirmed by the Kurtz powder test. The dielectric studies of γ-glycine crystal were studied in the different frequency and different temperatures. Photoconductivity measurements were carried out in order to reveal the negative photoconductivity of the γ-glycine crystal.
