Experimental investigation on the structural and physio-chemical properties of 2-amino-4,6-dimethyl-pyrimidinium hydrogen sulphate (2dphs) single crystal
摘要
The single crystal of 2-Amino-4,6-dimethylpyrimidinium hydrogen sulphate (2DPHS) has a distinctive structural composition that offers several potential benefits, particularly in the fields of materials science and chemistry. This paper emphasizes the growth of defect-free, high-quality, measured-size 2DPHS single crystals via a solution growth process. The grown crystal was investigated for its structural, optical, thermal, and third-order nonlinear optical (NLO) properties. “The XRD results confirm that 2DPHS crystallizes in a monoclinic structure. FTIR analysis verifies the presence of the required functional groups in the 2DPHS single crystal. An extensive discussion on the crystal’s linear and third-order nonlinear optical characteristics is presented in this work. The substantial photocurrent output exhibited by the 2DPHS single crystal highlights its potential application in various optical devices, including light-emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, and optical modulators. The modified growth conditions enhance the optical properties of the grown crystals compared to our previous reports.
