Nonlinear optical studies of cadmium magnesium oxalate crystal grown by gel method

摘要

The growth of Cadmium Magnesium Oxalate (CMO) crystals were achieved successfully by gel technique. The effect of various parameters such as specific gravity of Sodium Meta silicate(SMS), concentration of oxalic acid solution, concentration of reactants cadmium chloride and magnesium chloride, gel set time of the crystals have been studied. The study of FTIR spectrum reveals the presence of various bands of functional groups. The study of UV-Vis spectrum shows that optical transparency of the grown crystals. The absorption co-efficient and energy band gap were discussed and reported.
