Abstract

The growth of semicarbazone of p-hydroxy benzaldehyde (SPHB) single crystal by slow evaporation solution growth technique is reported in this article. The grown crystal was subjected to powder XRD study to identify the crystalline nature. Single crystal XRD study was done to measure unit cell parameters and to confirm the crystal structure. In the presence of various functional groups of SPHB was identified by FTIR spectrum. Its optical behavior was examined by UV–Vis–NIR spectrum and the crystal was found to have transparency in the region between 245 and 1100 nm. Thermal properties of the crystal were investigated using thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), which indicated that the melting of the material occurred before decomposition. The nonlinear optical (NLO) property was tested by Kurtz–Perry powder technique for second harmonic generations.
