Abstract: Semi organic Nonlinear optical material bismuth thiourea zinc acetate (BTZA) single crystals were grown by slow evaporation technique. Solvent used here was water. The solubility range is about 25-45C whose PH value is 3.1.The structural parameters of grown crystal were estimated by XRD. Spectral bands have been compared with thiourea complex using FTIR in the range 400-4000cm-1. FTIR studies confirm the functional groups present in the grown crystal. During the making of this crystal mechanical stress was applied on the crystal while cutting and polishing. Using Vickers’s hardness test hardness of crystal was estimated. NLO property was confirmed using Nd: YAG laser of wavelength 1064nm and efficiency was estimated three times higher than that of KDP.
Keywords: Slow evaporation technique, XRD, FTIR, Thermal analysis and SHG.
