Abstract
The single crystals of pure and Potassium doped L-alanine cadmium chloride (LACC), a metallo organic nonlinear optical material is grown by a slow evaporation technique. The grown crystals were confirmed by single crystal, powder XRD analyses and atomic absorption studies. Dielectric measurements were carried out for different frequencies at different temperatures. The dielectric constant decreases due to the introduction of large ionic radius K+ ion in the pure LACC crystal. The low dielectric constant and dielectric loss suggest that it can be used as inter-metal dielectric material.
