Photoconductivity, Microhardness and Dielectric Studies of 2- Amino 5- Nitropyridinium Hydrogen Oxalate (2A5NPHO) Single Crystal

A good optical quality single crystal of 2- Amino 5- Nitro pyridinium Hydrogen Oxalate (2A5NPHO) was grown by using unidirectional solution growth method. Photoconductivity, Microhardness and Dielectric studies of 2- Amino 5- Nitro Pyridinium Hydrogen Oxalate (2A5NPHO) were carried out.  KEITHLEY 480 picometer was used for photoconductivity studies of a triclinic crystal (2A5NPHO). Microhardness was measured by using Vicker’s hardness tester. Dielectric studies were performed with help of HIOKI HITESTER model 3532- 50 LCR meter
