Growth of bulk single crystals of cytosinium hydrogen selenite (CHS) is reported.
Dielectric constant of CHS is measured as a function of Frequency and temperature.
Lower cut off value of UV–vis-NIR spectrum of CHS crystal is observed at 210 nm.
Meyer’s index value of CHS crystal calculated identifies it as a soft material.
Powder SHG efficiency of CHS is about 1.5 times that of KDP crystal.
