The glycine sodium nitrite crystal reported by Khandpekar and Pati in the paper entitled, Synthesis and characterisation of glycine sodium nitrite crystals having non linear optical behaviour, Opt Commun 285, 2012 288-293 is actually gamma-glycine. In addition, we show that glycine barium ammonium nitrate, glycine sodium zinc sulfate, glycine barium calcium nitrate, glycine acetamide and glycine dimer are dubious crystals.
The authors of the title paper (Optik, 125 (2014) 1825-1828) claim to have synthesized a new nonlinear optical (NLO) gamma bis glycinium oxalate (GBGOx) crystal by slow evaporation solution technique. In this communication, many points of criticism, concerning the characterization of this so called GBGOx NLO crystal are highlighted to prove that the title paper is completely erroneous.
We argue that the L-aspartic acid nickel chloride crystal reported by the authors of the title paper (Optics Communications 2013) is actually the well-known diaqua(L-aspartato)nickel(II) hydrate crystal.
