• Growth of a new organic NLO active crystal, a chalcone derivative is reported.
• Band gap energy is estimated by Kubelka–Munk function.
• Structure is elucidated and inter-/intramolecular hydrogen bonding interactions are analyzed by Hirshfeld surface and fingerprint analysis.
• Superior NLO activity than the reference material KDP is observed.
Single crystals of a chalcone, (E)-3-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one (BHP), were grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique. The structure is elucidated by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and the crystal belongs to the monoclinic system with noncentrosymmetric space group P21. Optical studies reveal that the absorption is minimum in the visible region and the cut-off wavelength is at ∼468 nm. The band-gap energy was estimated by the application of the Kubelka–Munk algorithm. The powder X-ray diffraction pattern reveals the good crystallinity of the as-grown specimen. The vibrational patterns in FT–IR are used to identify the functional groups and thermal studies indicate the stability of the material. The second harmonic generation efficiency (SHG), as estimated by Kurtz and Perry powder technique, reveals the superior nonlinear optical character of this material. Hirshfeld surface analysis is done to quantify the intermolecular interactions, responsible for developing a nonlinear atmosphere. As-grown crystals were further characterized by SEM, NMR, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis.
