Abstract

A new crystalline material guanidinium L-monohydrogentartrate L- tartaric acid (GuHTT) has been grown successfully. The optically nonlinear active single crystal is synthesized by slow evaporation technique. In this work, we discuss about the transmittance spectrum, optical band gap, optical constants, second harmonic generation efficiency, dielectric constant etc. in detail. The optical and electrical conductivity of the crystal have been calculated..

Keywords

Nonlinear optical materials, Optical band gap, Dielectric constant.
