Abstract
Good-quality single crystals of organic non-linear optical material 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-(4-chloro phenyl)-2-propen-1-one were grown by slow evaporation technique. The crystal structure analysis and the molecular arrangement of these crystals are determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. From single-crystal XRD studies, it is found that the compound crystallizes in the monoclinic system with a space group P21/a, and the corresponding lattice parameters were calculated. FT-IR spectra were recorded to identify the various functional groups present in the compound. The biggest grown crystal has the dimension, 18Ã8Ã2Â mm3 and was characterized using UV visible spectra. The refractive index of the crystal was measured using Brewster's angle method and the second-harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency of 0.7 times that of urea.
