Abstract
Glycine phosphite (GPI), a semi-organic nonlinear optical NLO material, has been synthesized at room temperature. Slow evaporation method has been adopted to grow the single crystals of GPI and acetic acid, benzoic acid, formic acid, oxalic acid, and succinic acid-doped GPI crystals. The synthesized crystals are exposed to x-ray diffraction XRD, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and differential scanning calorimetry analysis DSC. The effects of doping on the structural parameters are analyzed. All the functional groups are identified by the corresponding peaks in the FTIR spectra. The UV–Vis spectrum shows that the materials have good optical transparency. The energy band gap values are found to be in the range of 5.1–5.4 eV for all the crystals. The mechanical stability of the grown crystals changes with different doping acids. The thermal studies were also affected by the addition of doping acids to the GPI crystal. Growth patterns and defect formation were studied by means of chemical etching. The dielectric constant and loss were evaluated from 300 to 410 K. It confirms that the dielectric constant value of GPI is higher than the acid-doped crystals.
