Single crystals of Glycinium oxalate (GLO) are grown by top seeded solution growth method. Characterization of the grown crystal is done by CHN test and powder X-ray diffraction. UV-Vis-NIR, FTIR spectroscopic analysis, thermal studies by TGA/ DTA and DSC, photoconductivity and photoluminescence studies, micro topography and chemical etching studies have also been carried out. crystal has a wide transperancy window from 324nm to 2500 nm making it suitable for applications in the whole region for higher harmonic generation and other optoelectronic applications. The good thermal stability of the material ensures its suitability for possible applications in lasers, where the crystals are required to withstand high temperatures. Z scan study under open aperture configuration illustrates the nonlinear optical behaviour of the grown crystal. The comparatively high value of two photon absorptive index demonstrates that the GLO crystal has potential for optical limiting applications.

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
