Abstract

NLO active and thermally stable Co(II) doped Mn(II)L-Histidine hydrochloride crystals are grown by slow evaporation technique at room temperature from aqueous solutions. The grown crystals are characterized by powder X-Ray diffraction, EPR, FTIR, UV-VIS, 1H NMR,13C NMR, Mass spectral analysis, Thermal analysis, SEM, Chemical etching and Vicker's micro hardness studies. Both the measured NLO and antibacterial activity of the grown crystals is encouraging.

Keywords: L-Histidine, NLO, Thermal, Morphological and Biological Studies.
