Abstract :
This article deals with the growth and characterization of 2-Amino-5-Chloropyridinium-4-hydroxybenzoate crystals by slow evaporation technique using methanol as solvent. The structural analysis infers the formation of title crystal in to monoclinic system. The various modes of vibrations are detected with suitable FT-IR and FT-Raman peaks. The cut off wavelength of 311 nm and rapid increase in transmission across the visible region assured the transparent nature of the crystal beyond UV region. Further, the broad ultraviolet emission peak centered at 373 nm observed in the photoluminescence analysis strengthen the emission characteristics. In terms of thermal stability, the crystal is stable up to 126 °C with ? 10% weight loss and then degrades rapidly. The dielectric parameters depict the usual behavior of the crystal for optical materials. The high work- hardening coefficient 2.38 justifies that the crystal belongs to soft material type. The nonlinear optical characteristics are examined by Z-Scan analysis with an excitation source of 532 nm.
