Tristhiourea Zinc(II)Sulphate(ZTS) and L-Arginine added Tristhiourea Zinc(II)Sulphate compounds were synthesized and single crystals were grown by slow evaporation technique. The cell parameters of the grown crystals were evaluated by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique. The powder X-ray diffraction patterns were recorded and indexed for further confirmation of crystalline nature of grown crystals. The crystalline perfection has been identified by etching studies. The presence of functional groups in the crystals has been confirmed by FTIR analysis. UV-Visible absorption spectra have been recorded to find the cutoff wavelength of the grown crystals. TGA/DTA and DSC studies show the thermal behavior of the grown crystals. The microhardness studies on the crystal samples revealed that the hardness increases with applied load for all the grown crystals. From the values of work hardening coefficient, it is found that ZTS and L-Arginine added ZTS crystals belong to the soft category materials. The second harmonic generation in the grown crystals was confirmed by Kurtz Perry powder method using Nd:YAG laser..

Active accounts were imported to the new platform and assigned a random password by default. In order to access your account you need to access the login page and go through the Lost Password dialog (involves the system sending you an email with instructions) in order to reset your password. This step is necessary as passwords are kept in hashed form and the new platform uses modern hashing algorithms incompatible with the previous ones.
