Abstract:
Highly translucent nonlinear single crystals of L-Threoninum Sodium Bromide (LTSB) has been grown because of their rising need for everyday life and the XRD studies (PXRD and SXRD) solemnly affirmed the crystallinity and non-centrosymmetric space group of LTSB materials. The bonding nature and diverse functional groups in LTSB were demonstrated by FTIR analysis when they absorb infrared radiation. The optical behavior of LTSB crystals was explored through UV-Vis spectroscopy, which shows optical parameters depend on photon energy with band gap Eg = 5.7 eV which was suitable for optoelectronic devices. The electrical properties of LTSB crystals were measured by using dielectric measurement. The solid state parameters of LTSB crystal were calculated. An antibacterial activity developed by LTSB crystals against different pathogenic bacteria were examined using the Agar disk diffusion process. The antibacterial inhibitory activity of LTSB crystal revealed that it can be used to treat a variety of bacterial infections.
