L-asparagine L-tartrate (LAT), an organic compound has been synthesized from aqueous solution and bulk single crystal has been grown by slow evaporation technique. Powder X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the monoclinic structure of the grown LAT crystal. The presence of functional groups of the grown crystal was identified by FTIR studies. Linear optical property of the grown crystal was studied by UV-Vis spectral analysis. Microhardness studies reveal that the crystal possesses relatively higher hardness compared to other organic nonlinear optical crystals. Dielectric response of the L-asparagine L-tartrate crystal was analyzed for different frequencies at various temperatures. Kurtz-Perry powder second harmonic generation test confirmed the nonlinear optical properties of the as-grown LAT crystal.

AbstractA soluble, asymmetrically substituted polydiacetylene, poly(BPOD), has been reported to form stable monolayers at the air-water interface by the Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique [2]. Preformed polydiacetylene has been deposited onto hydrophobic substrates as multilayers to form second order nonlinear optical thin films. Second harmonic generation was found to increase with the number of layers. From previous atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies backbone orientation along the dipping direction with an interchain spacing of about 5 A° was indicated [2].The film morphology and preferential molecular orientation of these LB films are further investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). A specifically tailored sample preparation method for the ultrathin LB films was used. Multilayer films were deposited on hydrophobic collodion covered glass substrates for this purpose. Electron diffraction was employed to study the crystalline organization of mono and multilayers of LB films as well as cast films.
