College (Autonomous), Mannampandal, Mayiladuthurai <p style="text-align: justify;">A semi-organic crystal&ndash;[(E)-benzylideneamino] thiourea(EBAT) was grown by adopting slow evaporation solution growth technique (SESGT) using methanol as a solvent.The functional group of harvested crystals were studied by the Fourier Transform (FT-IR) spectral analysis. The UV Spectra confirms the optical transparency. This is more helpful to use these crystals in opto applications. The harvested crystal of [(E)-benzylideneamino] thiourea was characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance and 13C NMR spectra which shows the molecular structure of the crystal. The TGA and DSC confirm the decomposition of the sample at 153.50oC. It further confirms the grown crystal [(E)-benzylideneamino] thiourea (EBAT) is thermally stable up to 153.50oC. The crystalline powder of the grown crystals was examined by X-ray diffraction studies. Second harmonic generation efficiency of the powdered [(E)-benzylideneamino] thiourea was tested using Nd:YAG laser and it is found to be ~5.1 time that of potassium<br /> dihydrogen ortho phosphate.</p> https://journalofchemistry.org/paper/555/ solution growth slow evaporation technique spectral characterization Thermal analysis
