- Abstract
Since the discovery of lasers, high-quality nonlinear optical (NLO) single crystals have served as the foundation for the creation of novel, cutting-edge devices that meet societal demands. Modern optoelectronic applications such as telecommunication lasers, optical fibers, photodiodes, solar cells, etc. favor high-performance nonlinear optical single crystals with improved optical nonlinearity. Organic crystals are extensively explored for these applications because of their high NLO coefficient. This paper deals with the problems and advancements of organic nonlinear optical single crystals. Here, we review the growth and characterizations of various tosylate family crystals from the vast realm of organic single crystals and their potential applications in the field of optoelectronic devices. Various properties like linear and nonlinear optical, thermal, mechanical, and laser damage threshold values for these samples have been summarized. The attempts are made for highlighting how these tosylate (p-Toluenesulfonic acid based) family crystals can be realized into efficient optoelectronic devices by summarizing variously reported cut-off wavelengths and their wide transmission ranges.
