Abstract
The novel composite LaCoO3/MoS2 hybrid nanostructure was synthesized via a combination of sol-gel, hydrothermal, and ultrasonication methods. Alizarin Red S (ARS) and Rhodamine B (RhB) were employed as a model pollutant, to assess the photodegradation efficiency of synthesized catalysts. The effect of MoS2 (2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, and 10%) on LaCoO3 (LCO) and its photocatalytic performance was studied. The properties of synthesized catalysts were assessed using various material characterization techniques. The photocatalytic dye degradation of ARS and RhB was investigated under visible light. Among the synthesized catalyst LM-5% composite (LaCoO3 with 5% MoS2) is determined to be the best photocatalyst as it degrades 96 % (ARS) and 90 % (RhB) in 40 min and 80 min, respectively. The photocatalyst is stable even after multiple runs and exhibits negligible loss in degradation efficiency during the cyclic test. Trapping experiments reveal the significance of superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals against the photodegradation of ARS and RhB. The kinetics of photodegradation of ARS and RhB by LM-5% is found to be 5.70 × 10-2 and 2.25 × 10-2 min-1, respectively. Herein, we demonstrated a catalyst possessing excellent photodegradation activity which may ignite the possibilities of using efficient photocatalysts for environmental remediation.

Abstract
ZnO hexagonal tube and ZnO/r-GO nanocomposites were synthesized by hydrothermal method and the nanostructures were characterized by XRD, UV-DRS, PL, FTIR, FESEM, and TEM techniques. The main violet emission peak of the synthesized nanostructures is due to the transition between interstitial zinc and hole (valence band) of ZnO. The potential of ZnO/r-GO nanocomposite was evaluated using methyl orange (MO) and rhodamine-B (RhB), and the results were compared with the activity of synthesized ZnO nanostructures. More than 95% of MO and RhB were by ZnO/r-GO nanocomposite and it was found to be higher than that of ZnO hexagonal tube. The degradation MO and RhB were found to follow first-order kinetics and it has a rate constant of 7.68 × 10-2and 7.83 × 10-2 min-1, respectively. These results are mainly due to the enhanced charge transport property. Trapping experiments show that superoxide radical anion and hydroxide radicals are chief species responsible for the degradation of MO and RhB. The chemical stability of the nanocomposite was evaluated by cycle test experiments and it reveals that the catalyst can be reused up to few cycles without considerable loss of photocatalytic activity. This work affords a simple stratagem to integrate ZnO hexagonal tubes and r-GO nanosheets to construct effective catalysts for the degradation of organic compounds.

Abstract
Organic Uronium 3-carboxy-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonate (UCHBS) nonlinear optical single crystal was grown by solution growth technique. The solubility and nucleation studies were performed for UCHBS at different temperatures 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 55°C. The crystal structure of UCHBS was elucidated from single crystal X-ray diffraction study. High resolution X-ray diffraction technique was employed to study the perfection and internal defects of UCHBS crystal. Infrared and Raman spectra were recorded to analyze the vibrational behavior of chemical bonds and its functional groups. The physico-chemical changes, stability and decomposition stages of the UCHBS compound were established by TG-DTA studies. The dielectric phenomenon of UCHBS crystal was studied at different temperatures with respect to frequency. Linear optical properties of transmittance, cut-off wavelength, band gap of UCHBS were found from UV-visible spectral studies. Third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility, nonlinear refractive index, nonlinear optical absorption coefficient values were measured by Z-scan technique. The mechanical properties of UCHBS crystal was studied by using Vicker's microhardness test. The growth features of UCHBS crystal were analyzed from etching studies.

Abstract
The single crystal of guanidine carbonate doped nickel sulfate hexahydrate was grown from solution for ultraviolet filters. The single crystal XRD confirms that the grown single crystal belongs to the tetragonal system with the space group of P4₁2₁2. The crystallinity of the grown crystal was estimated by powder X-ray diffraction studies. The optical transmission and thermal stability of as-grown guanidine carbonate doped nickel sulfate single crystals have been studied. The optical transmission spectrum demonstrates the characteristics of ultraviolet filters. The TG/DTA studies confirm the thermal properties of grown crystals. Thermo-gravimetric analysis showed that the dehydration temperature of the guanidine carbonate doped nickel sulfate crystal is about 100 °C, which is much higher than that of pure nickel sulfate hexahydrate (NSH) crystals which is 72 °C. The growth behaviors and dislocation density were detected under the high resolution XRD and etching studies respectively.

Abstract
The organic single crystals of 4-nitroaniline 4-aminobenzoic acid (4NAABA) were grown from ethanol solvent. The lattice parameters of the grown crystal have been confirmed from single crystal XRD analysis. The powder XRD pattern shows the various planes of grown crystal. The FTIR and (1)H NMR spectral analysis confirm the presence of various functional groups and the placement of proton in 4NAABA compound respectively. The UV absorption was carried out which shows the cutoff wavelength around 459 nm. The optical band gap of the crystal has been evaluated from the transmission spectra and absorption coefficient by extrapolation technique. In addition, a fluorescence spectral analysis is carried out for 4NAABA crystals. The thermal properties of crystals were evaluated from thermogravimetrical analysis. It shows that the grown crystal is stable up to 160°C and the crystal has sharp melting point at 151°C.

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C6H5N3·C7H6O3, comprises independent benzotriazole and 4-hydroxybenzoic acid molecules. The dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the benzotriazole ring system is 15.18 (7)°. The mean plane of the carboxyl group is twisted at an angle of 18.55 (1)° with respect to the benzene ring. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak intermolecular N—H⋯N, O—H⋯N, O—H⋯O and C—H⋯O interactions, forming a three-dimensional network.

Abstract
In the title compound, CH5N2O+·C7H5O6S−, the dihedral angle between the benzene ring and the mean plane of the uronium cation is 76.02 (8)°. The carboxyl group in the anion is twisted by 1.47 (9)° from the benzene ring. In the crystal, the cation is linked to the anion by weak O—H⋯O and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds and π–π interactions [centroid–centroid distance = 3.8859 (8) Å], forming a three-dimensional network.
