    Crystal structure of semiorganic antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate crystals: a redetermination
    (2009) Upadhya, M.K.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    The growth of antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate (ATBM) single crystals by evaporation technique at room temperature is reported here. Antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Cmca with unit cell parameters a = 12.320(7) A, b = 11.668(7) A, c = 18.615(11), and z = 8. The structure has been solved by direct methods and refined to a final R value of 0.0239.

    Electron irradiation effects on optical properties of semiorganic antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate single crystals
    (2010) Mahesha Upadhya, K.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    Antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate (ATBM) single crystals were grown by solution growth technique at room temperature for the first time. The UVvis, FT-IR and fluorescence spectra were recorded and electron irradiation effects on these properties were studied. The optical absorption edge of the UVvis spectrum shifts towards lower wavelength with the increase of irradiation. The fluorescence quantum yield is increased for electron irradiated ATBM crystals. The FT-IR analysis shows that the water of crystallization is weakly bonded in as-grown and electron irradiated ATBM crystals. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Synthesis, microhardness, FT-IR, and thermal decomposition of semiorganic antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate single crystals
    (2012) Mahesha Upadhya, K.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    Antimony thiourea bromide monohydrate (ATBM) single crystals were grown by a solution growth technique at room temperature. Microhardness studies on the grown crystal were carried out using the Vickers microhardness tester to estimate the mechanical strength of the crystal. The FT-IR analysis ascertains the presence of a metal-sulphur bond in ATBM crystals. The thermal decomposition of ATBM crystals was investigated by means of thermogravimetric analysis. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011.

    Electron irradiation effects on optical properties of semiorganic antimony thiourea tetra chloride single crystals
    (2012) Mahesha Upadhya, K.; Udayashankar, N.K.; Ganesh, S.
    Antimony thiourea tetra chloride single crystals were grown by solution growth technique at room temperature. The UV-visible, fourier transform infrared and fluorescence spectra were recorded and electron irradiation effects on these properties were studied. The optical absorption edge of the UV-visible spectrum slightly shifts towards longer wavelength with the increase of irradiation dose. The fluorescence quantum yield is decreased for electron irradiated antimony thiourea tetra chloride crystals. The presence of functional group of the as-grown and electron irradiated complex was confirmed by fourier transform infrared spectral study. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Synthesis, structural, optical and electrical (DC) properties of a semiorganic Thiourea Barium Chloride (TBC) single crystal
    (Elsevier GmbH journals@elsevier.com, 2017) Mahendra, K.; D'Souza, A.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    In the present study, TBC single crystals were synthesized using solution evaporation method. The structural analysis of TBC crystal was studied using Powder X-ray diffraction. Optical properties of TBC crystals were carried out using UV–vis, FTIR, Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The crystal shows absorbance maxima at 209 nm and transparent in the visible region 300–900 nm. The various optical constants such as refractive index, reflectance, speed of light, extinction coefficient, electrical susceptibility, dielectric constant, optical and electrical conductivity were evaluated. Thus results revealed that all these optical constants shows a strong dependence on optical absorption coefficient. Using single oscillator model (Wemple ?Didomenico), lattice dielectric constant and the ratio of free charge carrier to their effective mass were evaluated. The PL study of TBC crystals shows two emission peaks (419 nm ?S, 441 nm- Ba) in blue region. The DC resistivity and conductivity of the crystal was investigated in the temperature range 26 °C–115 °C. © 2017 Elsevier GmbH

    Effect of Zn doping on the structural, optical, photoluminescence and mechanical properties of thiourea barium chloride (TBC) crystal
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2017) Mahendra, K.; D'Souza, A.; Udayashankar, N.K.
    In the present work, a synthesis and comparative study on the effect of Zinc (Zn) on thiourea barium chloride (TBC) single crystals has been reported. Crystals of thiourea barium chloride and Zn-doped thiourea barium chloride crystals are prepared using slow evaporation from the saturated solution. The samples were subjected to single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction to study the unitcell parameters and structural variations. The functional groups present in the crystals are derived using FTIR and Raman analysis. The enhancement of transmittance with the addition of Zn and the variations in the parameters such as bandgap, extinction coefficient, reflectance, refractive index, optical and electrical conductivity, real and imaginary part of dielectric constant are studied from UV–vis spectrum analysis. Vickers hardness measurements are conducted for pure and Zinc-doped TBC single crystals. The emission spectrum of pure and Zn doped single crystals are studied using photoluminescence analysis. © 2017 Elsevier Ltd
