Several researchers have grown materials in single crystal form by gel technique and doped these materials by suitable dopant to determine the effect of doping on their characteristics. Among the several tartrate compounds, ammonium hydrogen tartrate and rubidium hydrogen tartrate have received greater attention because of their applications in transducers and in several linear and non-linear devices. In the present study, Growth of Zinc doped potassium hydrogen tartrate single crystal by gel technique is reported. The crystal is characterized by using EDAX, PL,UV-vis, powder XRD, FTIR, RAMAN and ANTI BACTRIAL analysis.
