P.R. Deepthi , R. Dhivyalakshmi, K.Vijayakumaran Nair

L-Alanine doped KDP crystals were grown from aqueous solution by natural evaporation method. The grown L-Alanine doped KDP crystals were characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy, FTIR spectroscopy powder X-ray diffraction studies and Second harmonic generation efficiency measurements. L-Alanine doped KDP crystals were found highly transparent and full faced. The experimental results evidence the suitability of the grown crystal for optoelectronic applications.
