Study on Second and Third Order Nonlinear Optical Properties of Triglycine Sulpho Succinate Single Crystals

Abstract

A third orders nonlinear optical single crystals of Triglycine Sulpho Succinate (TGSSu) has been grown by slow cooling method. The grown crystals were characterized using X-ray diffraction analysis technique and its found the grown crystals in monoclinic structures.Thermal analysis of TGSSu crystal were carriedout and its compared to TGS crystal. The second harmonic generation efficiency was studied Kurtz-Perry powder technique. The third-order nonlinearities of grown crystals have been investigated by Z-scan method. Nonlinear refractive index (n2), the nonlinear absorption coefficient (β) and third-order nonlinear susceptibility (χ(3)) were estimated for the sample. The results were discussed in detailed.
