Structural, optical, thermal, mechanical, dielectric and laser damage threshold studies of a succinate salt of creatinine for nonlinear optical applications

摘要

In this work, the structural, optical, mechanical, dielectric, thermal and laser-induced damage threshold (LDT) studies of a promising organic NLO material creatininium succinate (CS) were reported. CS exhibits admirable properties such as good thermal stability (247 degrees C), low dielectric constant (epsilon(r)=8.5) at higher frequencies and higher LDT up to 5.24 GW/cm(2) (3.5 times greater than urea) which favor this material most suitable for advanced laser applications.
