• Study on electrical and optical properties of formic acid (FA) added KDP was reported for the first time.
• Optical properties were found to be enhanced with increasing concentration of FA.
• The SHG efficiency of 1 mol% FA added KDP was 1.13 times that of KDP.
• The high concentration of FA contributed lower dielectric properties to KDP suitable for microelectronics applications.
• The improved third order nonlinear parameters were ascertained with addition of FA in KDP crystal.
In present investigation 0.5 and 1 mol% formic acid (FA) added potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP) crystals have been grown by a slow evaporation technique. The cell parameters of the grown crystals were determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The presence of different functional groups has been qualitatively analyzed by the FT-IR spectral analysis. The optical transparency and optical constants were assessed employing UV–visible studies in the range of 200–900 nm. The wide optical band gap of 1 mol% FA added KDP has been found to be 5 eV. The frequency dependent dielectric measurements were studied for pure and KDP added FA crystals. The enhanced second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency of grown crystals was determined by a classical Kurtz–Perry powder technique. The encouraging third order nonlinear properties were examined employing a Z-scan technique using He–Ne laser, at 632.8 nm. The effective negative index of refraction and high figure of merit (FOM) essential for laser stabilization were determined for grown crystals.
