Abstract

We present preliminary results on the SHG properties of a number of organic materials in powder form using a Q-switched Nd-YAG laser (7 ns, λ=1064 nm) as the fundamental input. The organic powder was packed into sealed cells, which is set at an angle of 45⁰ to the input beam. The intensity of reflected S.H. light (λ= 532 nm) was measured at an angle of 90° to the input beam. The urea was subjected to the same treatment, and used as a reference. Beside that we have calculated second-order hyperpolarizibilities (β) of the studied materials using PC-GAMESS package.
