Studies on the growth aspects, structural and third-order nonlinear optical properties of Piperidinium 3-carboxy-4-hydroxy benzenesulfonate single crystal
Organic PBS crystal was grown by slow evaporation method. PBS crystal belongs to monoclinic crystal system with space group P21/n. The cut-off wavelength of PBS was found to be 360 nm. Crystal possesses high LDT value of 4.3 GW/cm2. NLO parameters (n2)=1.945×10−10 m2/W and (β)=9.465×10−4 cm/W were measured.
