    Abstract:
    Amino acid family crystals exhibit excellent nonlinear optical and electro optical properties. l-Ornithine monohydrochloride single crystal, belongs to the amino acid group, was grown by the slow evaporation solution growth technique at room temperature. The grown crystals were characterized by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, TGA, DTA and DSC analyses. UV-vis-NIR spectrum shows excellent transmission in the UV, visible and NIR region (300-1600nm). The mechanical properties of grown crystals were studied using Vickers microhardness tester. Its second harmonic generation efficiency was tested using Nd:YAG laser and is 1.25 times that of KDP.
