Crystallization and characterization of mixed crystals of strontium calcium barium tartrate

Author(s): M. Mary Freeda, R. Krishna Priya, T. H. Freeda, S. Mary Delphine

Single crystals of strontium calcium barium tartrate (SCBT) were grown by controlled diffusion in silica gel at ambient temperature. The structural characterization of the grown crystals was carried out by Single crystal and Powder X-ray diffraction analysis. The functional groups present in the crystals were identified using Fourier Transform Infrared spectral analysis. The UV-Vis-NIR transmission spectrum was recorded to study the optical transparency of the grown crystals. The nonlinear optical (NLO) property of the grown crystals was confirmed by Kurtz- Perry powder technique. The chemical composition of the sample was verified using EDAX spectrum. Mechanical strength of the grown crystals was analyzed by Vickers microhardness test. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the crystal were measured as a function of frequency and temperature.
