Abstract : | |
An inorganic single crystal Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP) and an additive of organic methyl violet dye doped KDP crystal has been grown by slow evaporation solution growth technique. In order to characterize the changes in KDP behavior due to an organic additive - spectral analysis has been carried out to confirm the functional groups in the crystals by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. The grown crystal has been subjected to X-ray diffraction analysis for structural analysis. Presence of element with weight percentage has been identified and calculated by Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy. Nonlinear optic measurement has been used to find the SHG efficiency. Thermo gravimetric and differential thermal analysis helps to find the thermal stability of the grown crystal. To determine the electrical property, the grown crystal has been subjected to conductivity and capacitance analysis. And the mechanical property has been determined by Vicker's micro hardness test. |
