Abstract: A nonlinear semi-organic single crystal of γ-Glycine has been grown by slow-evaporation method. Well developed good quality crystal of size 13X11X10mm3 was harvested. The cell parameters of the grown crystal were estimated by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of functional group was identified from FT-IR spectrum. The UV absorption spectra of this crystal show the cut off wavelength. Thermal analysis (TGA/DTA) was performed to study the thermal stability of the grown crystal. Vickers micro hardness and photo conductivity were carried on the well-developed crystal to study its mechanical strength and field dependent current. The dielectric response of the sample is studied as a function of frequency and temperature.
