Single crystals of tartrate compounds are of great interest on account of their excellent optoelectronic properties. These properties explore the possibility of tartrate compounds to be exploited for various device applications. This has attracted the attention of researchers to grow single crystals of tartrate compounds and study their properties. The present work reports the optical properties of pure and sodium modified copper tartrate single crystals. Single crystal growth of these materials followed by their characteristics has already been published somewhere else. Having achieved the growth of pure and sodium modified copper tartrate single crystals and established their basic characteristics, it is thought worthwhile to have an understanding of their optical properties and their modification on replacement of some copper ions in the lattice of copper tartrate by sodium ions.
