Abstract

1,2,3-Benzotriazole 4-chloro-2-Nitrobenzoic acid (BTPCZ) single crystal was successfully grown by conventional slow evaporation solution technique (SEST) using methanol as the solvent. BTPCZ single crystal was grown for the first time in the literature. The crystal system and space group of the BTPCZ single crystal were identified by single crystal X-ray diffraction (SXRD) analysis. The BTPCZ crystal was subjected to powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) to endorse the crystalline quality of the material. The UV–Visible-NIR study exposes the transparency and cut-off wavelength of the BTPCZ crystal. The vibrational assignments and their functional groups were identified from the FTIR and FT-Raman analyses. The thermal properties such as thermal stability, melting point, and decomposing point were examined by Thermogravimetric/Differential thermal analysis (TG–DTA). To understand the intermolecular interaction of crystal packing, the BTPCZ material was investigated by Hirshfeld surface analysis and it was calculated that the molecular H–H interactions are of higher value compared to other interactions of the total molecules. The mechanical strength was investigated by Vickers microhardness tester. The frequency dependent dielectric properties of the crystals were investigated. To determine the appropriateness of the grown crystal for the high-power laser application, laser damage threshold (LDT) analysis has been carried out by Nd: YAG laser of wavelength of 1064 nm. The third-order nonlinear optical properties like refractive index (n2), absorption co-efficient (β) and susceptibility (χ(3)) were studied using Z-scan technique at 632.8 nm of He–Ne laser.
