摘要

Slow evaporation was used to successfully generate bis(3-methyl-N-(1-(pyrazin-2-yl)ethylidene)benzohydrazonato-κ3O,N,N′)nickel(II) (MPBN) single crystals, which crystallised in the non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Aba2. Their appropriateness for second-order non-linear optical (NLO) processes was validated by structural analysis. Excellent durability for high-power photonic applications was highlighted by optical investigations that showed a large transparency window with a cut-off at 251 nm and a high laser damage threshold of 1.3311 GW/cm2. Strong second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency was demonstrated by MPBN, which was almost 3.3 times as efficient as potassium dihydrogen phosphate (KDP). Along with notable pyroelectric (5 × 10−3 C·m−2·K−1 at 50°C), piezoelectric (d33 = 17.21 pC/N), and ferroelectric responses (Pᵣ ≈ 0.61 μC/cm2), the material demonstrated consistent dielectric behaviour, with negligible energy loss at high frequencies. Its versatility was further demonstrated by room-temperature ferromagnetism with considerable saturation magnetisation. A rare single-phase multiferroic crystal with significant NLO activity, MPBN is a prospective candidate for use in energy harvesters, frequency converters, sensors, and magneto-optoelectronic devices due to its synergistic optical, electrical, and magnetic capabilities.
