Single crystals of L-methionine-doped triglycine sulfate (LMTGS) were grown by the low temperature solution growth method. The influence of the dopant on the morphological changes has been studied and reported. The grown crystals were characterized using Laue X-ray diffraction, microhardness and polaroid absorption studies.
