Crystal growth and characterization of 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)-3- acetamidonitrobenzene, a new organic material for nonlinear optics

Abstract

The linear and nonlinear optical properties have been determined for a new organic nonlinear material 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)-3-acetamidonitrobenzene. Room-temperature angularly tuned type I phase matching for doubling of 1.064 μm radiation was achieved with a deff =27 pm/V. Favorable crystal growth habits were observed.
