Abstract :
In present investigation, Potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate (KDP) doped with Bio-semiorganic (Ficus religiosa Chlorophyll-a) novel crystal was grown by slow evaporation solution growth method. The presence of different functional groups has been analyzed by FT-IR spectral analysis. The cell parameters of the KDP doped with Ficus religiosa Leaves Chlorophyll-a crystal was determined using single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. UV-vis-NIR transmission spectra recorded for the grown crystals reveal the optical transparency and optical quality, energy gap, refractive index and reflectance. Using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDAX), the presence of the elemental composition with weight percentage has been calculated. The Vicker’s microhardness studies of doped crystals have been carried out at different loads. Further, the Vicker`s microhardness as well as parameters such as yield strength (σV), fracture toughness (Kc), brittleness index (B) are presented. The spectral and luminescent properties of Chlorophyll-a Doped Potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate (KDP) Crystal were analyzed.
