Pure and urea-doped gamma-glycine (γ-glycine) single crystals were grown by solution method with slow evaporation technique. When urea was added as dopant, morphological alterations were noticed in γ-glycine crystals. Structural characterization of the grown crystals was carried out by single and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods and it is observed that the samples crystallize in non-centrosymmetric space groups. UV–visible transmittance studies were performed to analyse optical transparency of pure and urea-doped γ-glycine crystals and found that the crystals were transparent in the entire visible–NIR region. Density and melting point of the grown crystals were measured. Second harmonic generation (SHG) for the grown crystals of this work was confirmed using Nd:YAG laser. Thermogravimetric and differential thermal analyses (TG/DTA) thermograms reveal that the materials have good thermal stability. From Microhardness studies, it is observed that urea-doped γ-glycine crystal is harder than pure (undoped) sample. |
