Introduction A material that has good crystalline nature is also having good optical and electrical properties [1-3]. Many organic and inorganic crystal materials had high polarization ability and are good candidates for nonlinear optical (NLO) studies [4]. However, the net polarization depends on the material symmetry properties, with respect to the impinging fields. So far, there are many organic crystals which is used for NLO yet, piperizanium p- aminobenzoate having the adorable nature of nonlinear properties. In the present article, gives the advancement of new NLO material (piperizanium p- aminobenzoate); which is being characterized with the help of XRD, FTIR, UV, Raman and PL. 2. Materials and Methods Piperazinium p-aminobenzoate crystal was prepared in the room temperature by slow evaporation growth method [5] by using as a methanol solvent. The precursor’s materials of Piperazine (98%) and p-aminobenzoic acid (99%) were taken in the equimolar ratio of 1:1 for the synthesis process is shown in figure 1. The p-Aminobenzoic acid was first dissolved in the solvent of methonal, after M. Vallikkodi and S. Sudhahar/ BIBECHANA 16 (2019) 15-22: RCOST p.16 (Online Publication: Dec., 2018) complete dissolved acid material and then the base compound of Piperazine was added little by little with the acid solution. The solution is allowed to get a homogenous mixture by continuously stirring for 8 hours using the temperature control magnetic stirrer in the room temperature circumstances [5]. After attaining the homogenous saturated state the solution was filtered using the whatman filter paper which is having the fine holes in the range of 110 µm and the filtered solution was covered with the perforated sheet having the fine holes for the evaporation and it was kept at the room temperature without disturbance. After 2 successive recrystallization process the good quality PZPAB crystal was harvested with in the span of 60 days. The figure 2 shows the crystal of PZPAB.

The x-ray diffraction spectrum of PZPAB was recorded using the X’pert PRO powder diffractometer with CuKα radiation having the wavelength of λ = 1.5406 Å. The sample was scanned from the range of 10° to 80° at the rate of 2°/minute. The recorded powder x-ray diffraction spectrum is shown in Figure 3. The presence of sharp and well defined peaks confirms the good crystalline nature of piperazinium p-aminobenzoate crystal and the corresponding peaks were indexed. The sharp intense peaks are shown in the table 2. FTIR Analysis The FTIR spectrum was recorded to understand the chemical bonding and it provides useful information regarding the molecular structure of the compound. The KBr pellet technique was used to analyze the sample. FTIR spectrum was taken for the powdered sample in the wavelength range 4000-400 cm-1 using 380 FTIR Spectrophotometer having the resolution of 0.5 cm-1 and the spectrum of FTIR is shown in Figure 4.The observed FTIR is summarized in table 3. Raman Analysis Laser Raman spectrum was taken for the powdered sample in the wavelength range 4000-400 cm-1 using STR 500 mm focal length laser Raman spectrometer and the Raman spectrum is shown in the figure 5. Raman bands along with their vibrational assignments are summarized in table 4. UV-Visible optical Absorption spectral analysis The optical absorption spectral analysis of the grown PZPAB crystal was carried out using Perkin Elmer Lambda35 spectrometer between 250 and 800 nm. The absorption & transmittance spectrum of the as grown PZPAB crystal is shown in the Figure 6. The UV cut off wavelength of the crystal was found to be at 317 nm. The absence of absorption in the visible region suggests that the crystal possess the good nonlinear optical property. M. Vallikkodi and S.

UV-Visible optical Absorption spectral analysis The optical absorption spectral analysis of the grown PZPAB crystal was carried out using Perkin Elmer Lambda35 spectrometer between 250 and 800 nm. The absorption & transmittance spectrum of the as grown PZPAB crystal is shown in the Figure 6. The UV cut off wavelength of the crystal was found to be at 317 nm. The absence of absorption in the visible region suggests that the crystal possess the good nonlinear optical property. Photoluminescence studies Photo luminescence spectroscopy is a non -destructive method for finding out the electronic structure and optical behavior. The Photoluminescence spectrum of the grown PZPAB was recorded in the wavelength region between 300 nm and 550 nm using RF-5301 spectrophotometer. The PL spectrum (Figure 7) of PZPAB grown crystal is excited at 350 nm. From the PL spectrum, one high intensity blue emission peak and one medium intensity violet emission peak was observed at 455 nm, 384 nm M. Vallikkodi and S. Sudhahar/ BIBECHANA 16 (2019) 15-22: RCOST p.21 (Online Publication: Dec., 2018) respectively, and it attributes to shallow defects in the band gap and more ordered structure. The sharp high intensity caused because of the similar transition occurring at the various energy levels within the band gap. Fig. 6: UV-Visible absorption & transmittance spectrum of PZPAB.
