Abstract
Single crystals of pure and lanthanum doped ammonium pentaborate (AB5) have been successfully grown from aqueous solution by slow evaporation technique. The growth conditions of both pure and La3+ doped AB5 are optimized and the grown crystals are investigated by powder X-Ray diffraction technique. The grown crystals of pure and La3+ doped AB5 are subjected to FT-IR and UV-Vis-NIR spectral techniques and the influences of La3+ are reported. The second harmonic generation of the crystals was confirmed by Kurtz and Perry powder technique and the influence of La3+ is also discussed.
