Crystal growth, morphology, spectrographic characterization and thermal properties of Glycine Barium Bromo Chloride crystals

• Glycine Barium Bromo Chloride single crystal with size 15 × 10 × 5 mm3 was obtained.
• The functional groups of GBBC were analyzed using FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopy.
• The third-order NLO properties of GBBC were investigated using Z-scan technique.

Glycine Barium Bromo Chloride material was purified by repeated recrystallization. Single crystal was grown by the slow evaporation solution technique (SEST). The presence of functional groups in the grown crystals was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectrum analysis. Thermal properties of the crystals were investigated using thermogravimetric (TG) and differential thermal analyses (DTA). The dielectric studies were carried out to identify the phase transition temperature and the dielectric constant was found. The transparency of crystal was tested using UV–visible spectra. Single crystal X-ray diffraction study has been carried out to find the crystal system and unit cell parameters.
