Abstract: | Tris(tetraethylammonium) pentabromozincate(II) monohydrate, is a new semiorganic compound synthesized and crystallized by slow evaporation solution growth method at room temperature. The formation of the compound in the stoichiometric ratio was confirmed by elemental analysis. The crystalline nature of the compound was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction method and the crystal system was found to be triclinic. The absorption spectrum of the compound shows absorption at 247 nm and it has wide transparency in the visible region. The lower cut-off wavelength and the optical transmittance window of the compound were identified by optical transmittance study. The thermogravimetric and differential thermal (TG–DTA) analyses were studied to find out the thermal stability of the synthesized compound. The thermal anomalies observed in the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis indicate that the compound shows a first order phase transition. The FTIR spectrum was used to characterize the various chemical bonds and water molecule present in the compound. The nonlinear optical property (NLO) of the material was analyzed by modified Kurtz–Perry powder technique and found that it has SHG efficiency three times greater than that of KDP. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the compound decrease with increase in frequency. |
