Abstract
Nitropyridine derivatives have long been known as potential materials for nonlinear optical applications [1]. The chiral molecule (+)2-(α-methylbenzylamino)-5-nitropyridine (MBA-NP) was identified as a promising material by the powder technique [2]. MBA-NP possessed a powder efficiency 20 times that of a urea reference when the fundamental wavelength was 1064 nm. This value is in good agreement with that reported by other authors [3].
