Abstract

Potassium acid phthalate (KAP) which is also known as potassium hydrogen phthalate (KC8H5O4), a semi-organic compound was grown from its aqueous solution only by slow evaporation method at room temperature. The effect of metallic salts HgCl2 and PbCl2 as dopants in the growth aspects, thermal properties and SHG efficiency of KAP were determined using UV-VIS, FTIR spectral studies, thermal (TG and DTA) analysis and NLO test. There is only one significant mass loss step on TG curve of pure and doped KAP crystal. DTA curve exhibit a higher peak temperature in case of doped KAP crystal compared to those of pure KAP crystals.
