Abstract :
The present investigation deals with study of effect of glutamic acid on various properties of pure KDP crystals. The crystals were grown at room temperature by evaporation method. Transparent and rectangular shaped crystals were grown after 25 days. The various characterizations such as elemental, structural, FTIR spectroscopic and optical were carried out on the grown crystals. The elemental analysis showed the presence of dopant atoms. The structural analysis showed the single-phase nature of the doped crystals. The FTIR analysis showed the presence of characteristic vibrations of glutamic acid along with KDP. The SHG analysis showed reduction in SHG efficiency of doped crystals. The UV-Vis analysis showed reduction in transmittance and optical energy band gap energy of doped crystals.
