Abstract
A new cesium hydroxyborate CsB3O4(OH)2, was designed and synthesized by a hydrothermal method. Remarkably, CsB3O4(OH)2 presents novel [B3O4(OH)2]∞ chains formed by [B3O4(OH)2] fundamental building blocks (FBBs). The report of less common [B3O4(OH)2] FBBs and [B3O4(OH)2]∞ chains in CsB3O4(OH)2 enriches the structural diversity of hydroxyborates. In addition, CsB3O4(OH)2 has a wide transparent window in the DUV spectral range and a large birefringence.

Abstract
An antimony fluoride melamine birefringent crystal, (C3N6H7)2SbF5·H2O, was obtained by introducing the π-conjugated delocalized melamine and antimony trifluoride via a simple aqueous solution evaporation method. It features one-dimensional parallel [C3N6H7]∞ chains further connected by hydrogen bonds originated from [SbF5]2- groups with lone pairs. The experimental optical band gap (4.74 eV) allows it to be used in the ultraviolet region. The first-principles calculations suggest that (C3N6H7)2SbF5·H2O exhibits a large birefringence (∼0.38@550 nm), which is twice larger than that of the commercial CaCO3 crystal. Therefore, introducing the fluoride into π-conjugated melamine may be a good tactic to obtain birefringent crystals with large optical anisotropy.

Abstract
Fluorine-containing compounds have stimulated the exploration of ultraviolet/deep-ultraviolet nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. Alkali/alkaline-earth metal phosphates are one of the important potential systems as NLO materials, while the common small birefringence limits the phase-matching (PM) ability in the ultraviolet/deep-ultraviolet region. Herein, by applying a "fluorination synergy-induced enhancement of optical property" strategy, novel structures of phosphate fluoride/fluorophosphate in BePO3F with good thermodynamic/dynamic stability and promising NLO-related properties are discovered via performing crystal structure prediction combined with first-principles calculations. BePO3F-I-VI exhibit relatively large birefringence of 0.025, 0.048, 0.049, 0.049, 0.059, and 0.063 at 1064 nm, respectively. Simultaneously, BePO3F-I (Pc) is a new thermodynamically stable phosphate fluoride which possesses a wide band gap (Eg = 8.03 eV), large second-harmonic generation (SHG) coefficient (d11 = 0.67 pm/V, 1.7 × KDP), and the shortest PM wavelength of 292 nm. Other five thermodynamically metastable noncentrosymmetric (NCS) BePO3F structures (II-VI) belong to fluorophosphates and exhibit deep-ultraviolet PM wavelengths of 187, 183, 186, 188, and 196 nm. It reveals that the aligned nonbonding O 2p orbitals of [BeO2F2] and [PO4] units lead to a large SHG coefficient in the phosphate fluoride BePO3F-I. For fluorophosphates (BePO3F-II-VI), the synergy of [BeO3] planar units and [PO3F] units induces relatively large birefringence. Our research results provide an idea for exploring novel high-performance NLO materials.

Abstract
Currently, π-conjugated [B2O5] moieties are rarely studied for designing deep-UV birefringent crystals. Here, we report a new deep-UV birefringent crystal Ba2Zn2B6O13 with a deep-UV cut-off edge of 190 nm and large birefringence (Δn = 0.085@ 532 nm), indicating that it can be used as the birefringent material in the DUV area. The first-principles calculation analyses suggest that its large birefringence mainly originates from the coplanar [B2O5] dimers in the unnoted U-shaped [B6O13].

Abstract
A new sodium hydroxyfluorooxoborate, NaB3O4F(OH) (NBOFH), was discovered and synthesized. NBOFH features the unprecedented [B3O4F(OH)] infinite chain constructed by the novel fundamental building block (FBB) of [B3O5F(OH)]. NBOFH has a large birefringence of 0.097 at 1064 nm and short ultraviolet (UV) cutoff edge below 200 nm. First-principles calculations and response electron distribution anisotropy (REDA) were performed to explain the structure-property relationships. This work provides a novel strategy for the synthesis of deep-ultraviolet birefringent crystals and enriches the structural diversity of the emerging hydroxyfluorooxoborates.

Abstract
A novel guanidinium-templated ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical zinc carbonate crystal, [C(NH2)3]2Zn(CO3)2 (GZCO), has been synthesized in a closed system at low temperatures. GZCO crystallizing in the tetragonal noncentrosymmetric nonpolar space group, P41212 exhibits a three-dimensional anionic framework constructed by interconnected [Zn6C6O32] 12-membered ring channels with inorganic CO3 triangles and ZnO4 tetrahedra. Notably, the anhydrous GZCO shows a very high thermal stability among guanidine-based hybrid NLO materials benefiting from the confinement effect of the organic cations within inorganic channels. The UV-visible transmittance spectrum reveals that GZCO has a short UV cutoff edge of 210 nm, corresponding to the large band gap of 5.9 eV. GZCO exhibits a mild second-harmonic generation efficiency of 0.5 × KH2PO4 with type-I phase-matching behavior.

Abstract
A series of ammonium-containing fluoroiodates, NH4IO2F2 and (NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O, with isolated [IO2F2] units have been fabricated by a fluorine-oxygen substitution strategy from NH4IO3. The two compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system, but in different space groups, noncentrosymmetric Pca21 for NH4IO2F2 and centrosymmetric Pnma for (NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O, and show wide band gaps of 4.53 eV for (NH4IO2F2) and 4.55 eV for ((NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O). In addition, NH4IO2F2 exhibits a 1.2 × KDP second harmonic generation response, a short ultraviolet cutoff edge in iodates, and a good crystal growth habit. The crystal of NH4IO2F2 with a size of 11 × 5 × 2 mm3 was obtained by the aqueous solution method. The results enrich the structural diversity of iodate and supply a greater understanding of the design of new functional materials based on the fluoroiodates.

Abstract
Two new borogermanate/borosilicate fluorides, namely, NaBa3[M2B7O16(OH)2]F2 (M = Ge, Si), have been successfully synthesized through a conventional mild hydrothermal method. They represent the first examples of mixed alkali and alkaline-earth borogermanate/borosilicate fluorides. NaBa3[M2B7O16(OH)2]F2 (M = Ge, Si) crystallize in the space group of C2/c, and their structures feature a unique 3D anionic framework composed of [B7O16(OH)2]13- polyanions corner-sharing with SiO4 or GeO4 tetrahedra, forming 1D 10-membered-ring tunnels along the b axis, which are filled by Na+, Ba2+, and F- ions. UV-vis-near-IR absorption spectra identify the title compounds possessing short deep-ultraviolet absorption edges (below 200 nm), while their birefringences were calculated to be 0.021 and 0.016 at 1064 nm, respectively. Optical property, thermal stability, and theoretical calculations have also been conducted on NaBa3[M2B7O16(OH)2]F2 (M = Ge, Si).

Abstract
Birefringent materials play a significant role in modulating polarized light in optical communication and the laser industry. However, the discovery of deep ultraviolet (DUV, λ<200 nm) birefringent materials still faces a serious challenge. Herein, we propose hydroxylated π-conjugated [B(OH)3 ] and [B3 O3 (OH)3 ] units for designing DUV birefringent materials. Innovatively, four new hydroxyborates have been synthesized under mild synthesis conditions. They present four novel pseudo layers that benefit from the large degree of freedom assembly modes of [B(OH)3 ] and [B3 O3 (OH)3 ] genes and large birefringence (0.057-0.123@532 nm). Moreover, the Cs3 [B(OH)3 ]2 Cl3 crystal features a short DUV cutoff edge (180 nm), which further indicates that the reported compounds are potential DUV birefringent crystals. Free and flexible assembly modes of π-conjugated [B(OH)3 ] and [B3 O3 (OH)3 ] groups endow them a particular advantage as significant genes for exploring promising DUV birefringent materials.

Abstract
Inorganic metal halides play important roles in wide range of areas including fluorescence, X-ray detection, and nonlinear-optics. Herein, two new mixed alkali metal tantalum fluorides, CsKTaF7 and CsNaTaF7 , have been obtained based on the strategy of cations regulation in A2 MF7 (A represents monovalent cations and M is d0 transition-metal cation) system by a conventional hydrothermal route. CsKTaF7 crystallizes in the centric Pnma space group, while CsNaTaF7 crystallizes in the polar Cmc21 space group and exhibits moderate and phase-matchable NLO activity. Both halides possess large optical band gaps above 5.0 eV. The crystal structure evolution, optical properties, and detailed theory calculations of these two halides were elucidated in this work.

Abstract
Deep-ultraviolet (DUV) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals that can extend the output range of coherent light below 200 nm are pivotal materials for solid-state lasers. To date, KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF) is the only usable crystal that can generate DUV coherent light by direct second harmonic generation (SHG), but the layered growth habit and toxic ingredients limit its application. Herein, we report a new fluoroborophosphate, (NH4)3B11PO19F3 (ABPF), containing four different functional units: [BO3], [BO4], [BO3F] and [PO4]. ABPF exhibits a KBBF-like structure while eliminating the limitations of KBBF crystal. The unique [B5PO10F]∞ layers enhance ABPF’s performance; for example, it has a large SHG response (1.2 × KDP) and a sufficient birefringence (0.088 at 1064 nm) that enables the shortest phase-matching wavelength to reach the DUV region. Meanwhile, the introduction of strong B-O-P covalent bonds decreases the layered growth habit. These findings will enrich the structural chemistry of fluoroborophosphate and contribute to the discovery of more excellent DUV NLO crystals.

Abstract
The development of high-power solid-state lasers is in urgent need of new infrared nonlinear optical (IR NLO) materials with a wide band gap and a high laser-induced damage threshold. A new infrared nonlinear optical material Na2Ga2SiS6 has been synthesized for the first time, crystallizing in the Fdd2 (no. 43) noncentrosymmetric space group. Its three-dimensional tunnel framework consists of two typical NLO active motifs [GaS4] and [SiS4], with Na+ cations located inside the tunnels. Na2Ga2SiS6 exhibits comprehensive optical properties, namely, a wide transmission range, a high laser-induced damage threshold (10 × AgGaS2), a type-I phase-matching second-harmonic generation response (0.2 × AgGaS2), and especially a wide band gap (3.93 eV), which is the largest in the A2MIII2MIVQ6 (A = alkali metals; MIII = IIIA elements; MIV = IVA elements; Q = S and Se) family. Therefore, Na2Ga2SiS6 does not produce two-photon absorption under a 1064 nm laser pump and could be used in high-energy laser systems, which makes Na2Ga2SiS6 a promising candidate for high-energy IR NLO applications.

Abstract
For the first time, the polar covalent tetrahedron [SO2 (NH2 )2 ] is revealed as a new deep-ultraviolet (DUV) nonlinear optical (NLO)-active unit according to theoretical calculations. Furthermore, sulfamide consisting of polar [SO2 (NH2 )2 ] units was confirmed as an excellent candidate as a DUV NLO crystal. Sulfamide provides the optimal balance between composition, structure, and properties, in addition to a very short absorption of 160 nm. It achieves multiple optical performance records for non-π-conjugated DUV NLO materials, including the strongest second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency (about 4 times that of KDP), the largest birefringence (obv.: 0.07@589.3 nm) and the shortest SHG wavelength predicted as 188 nm.

Abstract
SO4 tetrahedral groups have weak polarization anisotropy, which thus results in the small birefringence of sulfates. Here, we report new sulfate CsY(SO4)2·4H2O with unprecedented birefringence among deep-ultraviolet (deep-UV) sulfates. Its single crystal (10 mm × 3.5 mm × 1.5 mm) was simply grown by an aqueous solution evaporation technique, and it features a rare layered structure composed of YO9 polyhedra, SO4 tetrahedra, and H2O molecules. Interestingly, each SO4 group donates two oxygen atoms to edge-share with one adjacent YO9 polyhedron and thus causes severe distortion of these groups. The characteristic edge-sharing mode gives CsY(SO4)2·4H2O a large birefringence of ∼0.045@546 nm, which is the maximum among deep-UV sulfates and phosphates with similar non-π-conjugated anionic groups. The ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared diffuse reflection and transmission spectra, infrared spectrum, thermal stability, and theoretical calculations are also presented. The fascinating results will improve our understanding of sulfates and may provide useful insights into the exploration of deep-UV sulfates with large birefringence.

Abstract
A new borate, Na2SrB16O26, was synthesized by the high-temperature solution method. It exhibits complicated interpenetrating 3D B-O frameworks composed of the functional building block (FBB) [B8O16]. The UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy shows that it has a deep-ultraviolet (DUV) cutoff edge (<200 nm). The relationship between the structures and optical properties was uncovered by theoretical calculations. By the first-principles calculation, the birefringence is estimated to be 0.07 at 1064 nm. The response electron distribution anisotropy (REDA) analysis indicates that the [BO3] units contribute mainly to the generation of the moderate birefringence.

Abstract
Two new borophosphates, Cs3B3P4O16 and Li(NH4)2B3P4O16, and two new fluoroborophosphates, K4B2P2O9F2 and Rb3B2PO5F4, have been obtained via the high-temperature solution method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction indicates that all of them exhibit various anion frameworks although they crystallize in the same space group, P21/c. Two-dimensional (2D) [B3P4O16]∞ layers and a 3D [B3P4O16]∞ network can be found in Cs3B3P4O16 and Li(NH4)2B3P4O16, respectively, while isolated [B2P2O9F2] and [B2PO5F4] exist in K4B2P2O9F2 and Rb3B2PO5F4, respectively. The effect of the alkali metal cation size on the framework structures of Cs3B3P4O16 and Li(NH4)2B3P4O16 has been discussed in detail. The IR spectra confirm their structural validity. UV-Vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy indicates that the new compounds exhibit short cutoff edges. In addition, theoretical calculations were carried out to understand their electronic structures and optical properties.

Abstract
Three mixed-alkali-metal fluorooxoborates, KNaB3O4F3 (I), K2B3O4F3 (II), and KCsB3O4F3 (III), were acquired in a closed system. I-III are isomorphic and adopt orthorhombic structures [Pbcn (No. 60)] with wavy parallelly arranged pseudolayers composed of ∞1[B3O4F3] chains, which exhibit slight differences in the arrangement modes of the fundamental building blocks. First-principles calculations illustrate that they all have moderate birefringence and large band gaps on the order of 7.0 eV, suggesting deep-ultraviolet (DUV) cutoff edges. In order to investigate the main source of the optical properties, the electronic structure and anisotropy of the response electron distribution were analyzed. Experimental characterizations for I confirm the structure and DUV transparence ability.

Abstract
The first alkaline earth metal borate-nitrate, namely Ba2B5O8(OH)2(NO3)·3H2O (BBNOH), has been synthesized by the hydrothermal method. BBNOH crystallizes in the space group of P21/c and shows two-dimensional (2D) 2∞[B5O8(OH)2]3- borate anion layers, and the hydrated barium cations and the [NO3]- anions are located between the layers. The process of optimizing the structure of Ba2B5O8(OH)2OH to BBNOH has been discussed. The first principles calculation has been used to calculate the birefringence of Ba2B5O8(OH)2(NO3)·3H2O, and the value is 0.033@1064 nm, which is mainly originated from the borate anions and the π conjugated [NO3]- anions.

Abstract
The exploration of A-Mo-P-O (A = Rb, Cs) systems has allowed several new Mo(V) phosphates, Rb2MoP2O9, Rb6Mo2P4O19 and Cs6Mo2P4O19, to be synthesized through the spontaneous nucleation method. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the identical stoichiometry compounds Rb2MoP2O9 and Cs2MoP2O9 belong to different space groups C2/c and Pbca, respectively. Both compounds consist of dissimilar 1D [Mo-O-P]∞ chains with different repeated building units, while monovalent cations fill in spaces to form 3D structures. However, Rb6Mo2P4O19 and Cs6Mo2P4O19 are isostructural and crystallize in the same space group of P21/c. They exhibit a 3D framework structure with 0D Mo2O5O6P4O8 groups, which are separated by Rb/Cs atoms. Interestingly, structural relationships between the different monophosphates of the A-Mo-P-O (A = Rb, Cs) systems are presented in which distinct polyanionic configurations appear owing to the A/P ratios, as well as the size of the univalent cations. Further, detailed structural comparisons, optical properties and theoretical calculations are also discussed.

Abstract
The enhancement mechanism of birefringence is very important to modulate optical anisotropy and materials design. Herein, the different cations extending from alkaline-earth to alkaline-earth, d 10 electron configuration, and 6s 2 lone pair cations are highlighted to explore the influence on the birefringence. A flexible fluorooxoborate framework from AEB 4 O 6 F 2 (AE = Ca, Sr) is adopted for UV/deep-UV birefringent structures, namely, M II B 4 O 6 F 2 (M II = Be, Mg, Pb, Zn, Cd). The maximal enhancement on birefringence can reach 46.6% with the cation substitution from Ca, Sr to Be, Mg ( route-I ), Pb (route-II), and Zn, Cd (route-III). The influence of the cation size, the stereochemically active lone pair, and the binding capability of metal cation polyhedra is investigated for the hierarchical improvement on birefringence. Significantly, the BeB 4 O 6 F 2 structure features the shortest UV cutoff edge 146 nm among the available anhydrous beryllium borates with birefringence over 0.1 at 1064 nm , and the PbB 4 O 6 F 2 structure has the shortest UV cutoff edge 194 nm within the reported anhydrous lead borates that hold birefringence larger than 0.1 at 1064 nm. This work sheds light on how metal cation polyhedra modulate birefringence, which suggests a credible design strategy to obtain desirable birefringent structures by cation control.

Abstract
Exploring significant ultraviolet/deep-ultraviolet nonlinear optical (NLO) materials is hindered by rigorous and contradictory requirements, especially, possessing a moderate optical birefringence to meet phase-matching (PM). Except for suitable birefringence, small chromatic dispersion is also crucial to blue-shift the PM wavelength. Here, the introduction of fluorinated tetrahedral boron-centred chromophore strategy was proposed to optimize the chromatic dispersion. Herein, [BF4]- unit with large HOMO-LUMO band gap was introduced to Na-B-O-F system and Na4B8O9F10 was designed and synthesized successfully for the first time. Na4B8O9F10 with optimized chromatic dispersion can achieve a short second harmonic generation PM wavelength of 240 nm with a relatively small birefringence (cal. 0.036@1064 nm). Notably, Na4B8O9F10 is the first acentric crystal with [BF4]- unit among reported metal-fluorooxoborate system, involving isolated [BF4]- and novel [B7O10F6]5- fundamental building blocks.

Abstract
A new alkaline-earth metal borate, Sr3B14O24, was successfully synthesized by a high-temperature solution method. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c (no. 14) and features a fundamental building block (FBB) [B14O30] which is composed of eight [BO3] and six [BO4] units. The FBBs further condense to form an unwonted infinite 2D double layer extended in the bc plane. The UV-Vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectrum shows that the cutoff edge of Sr3B14O24 is less than 200 nm, which indicates its potential use in the deep UV region. In addition, the first principles theoretical study was carried out to better understand the relationship between the structure and performance.

Abstract
Chalcogenide-containing compounds have been widely studied as infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. However, they have never been applied in the ultraviolet (UV) region owing to the high energy levels of chalcogen anions, leading to band gap narrowing. We report the synthesis of a new UV NLO oxysulfide La3 Ga3 Ge2 S3 O10 with an exceptionally wide band gap of 4.70 eV due to from the unique anion-ordered frameworks comprising 1D 1 ∞ [(Ga3/5 Ge2/5 )3 S3 O3 ] triangular tubes and 0D (Ga3/5 Ge2/5 )2 O7 dimers of corner-sharing (Ga/Ge)S2 O2 and (Ga/Ge)O4 tetrahedra, respectively. Second harmonic generation (SHG) measurements revealed that La3 Ga3 Ge2 S3 O10 was phase matchable with twice the SHG response of KH2 PO4 . The results of theoretical calculations suggest that the strong SHG response is mainly attributable to the S-3p and O-2p orbitals in the occupied states. The anion-directed band-gap engineering may give insights into the application of NLO oxychalcogenides in the UV regions.

Abstract
The introduction of d0 transition metal Mo6+ cations into a phosphate generates a new acentric molybdophosphate, RbMo2P3O14. It shows uncommon [Mo2P3O14]∞ layers composed of isolated [MoO6] octahedra and [P3O10] groups. To the best of our acknowledge, it exhibits the largest birefringence (a calculated value of 0.166 at 546 nm) among reported molybdophosphates. In addition, it also possesses a shorter UV cut-off edge (about 250 nm) than other molybdates and molybdophosphates, indicating that it can be used as a birefringent crystal in the UV optical region. First-principles electronic structure analysis suggests that the large birefringence mainly originates from highly distorted [MoO6].

Abstract
Two new sodium aluminum borates, Na3 AlB8 O15 and Na3 Al2 B7 O15 , have been successfully synthesized by the high-temperature solution method. They crystallize in the different space groups, P21 /c and P2/c, respectively. The B-O configurations of β-Na2 B6 O10 , Na3 AlB8 O15 and Na3 Al2 B7 O15 are compared to feature complicated different dimensional open-framework structures caused by the substitution of [BO4 ] by [AlO4 ] covalent tetrahedra. Moreover, the experimental results indicate that Na3 AlB8 O15 and Na3 Al2 B7 O15 have short ultraviolet (UV) cutoff edges (<187 nm). The first-principles calculations show that Na3 AlB8 O15 and Na3 Al2 B7 O15 have moderate birefringence (0.075 and 0.041@1064 nm, respectively).

Abstract
Exploring non π-conjugated phosphate birefringent crystal with a large birefringence has been a great challenge. Herein, based on the unique two-dimensional layered structure in KBe2 BO3 F2 (KBBF), two new compounds, Sn2 PO4 I and Sn2 BO3 I, were designed and synthesized successfully, maintaining the layer structural feature and enhancing the optical anisotropy of crystals. In particular, the birefringence of Sn2 PO4 I is larger than or equal to 0.664 @546 nm, which is largest among the reported borates and phosphates, even surpassing commercial birefringent crystals YVO4 and TiO2 . This work indicates that a breakthrough in birefringence of inorganic compound was achieved. Also, it provides a guiding idea for exploring large birefringence materials in the future.

Abstract
Discovering new functional genes and developing high-performance materials are the goals being pursued by scientists. In this work, we successfully obtained a second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) material via the aqueous solution method, Y[N(CN)2 ]4 [NH(C2 H5 )3 ] ⋅ 3H2 O, which is the first NLO material with the anionic group N(CN)2 - . Remarkably, this material is not only strongly NLO-active at 1064 nm with a response of about 2.8 × KH2 PO4 , but also possesses a short UV absorption edge of 250 nm. In-depth first-principles calculations illustrate well that the optical properties are mainly from the strong interaction of N, C and Y atoms. This result indicates that the N(CN)2 - anion may be a new NLO functional gene. This work enriches the diversity of NLO functional genes and materials.

Abstract
The combination of RbB3 O4 F2 and NaF generates a new member of fluorooxoborates, NaRbB3 O4 F3 , with a wide transparency range from the IR to DUV region. NaRbB3 O4 F3 shows a three-dimensional (3D) structure composed of 1D [B3 O4 F3 ]∞ chains, [NaO3 F3 ] and [RbO5 F5 ] polyhedra. The structural evolution from NaRbB3 O4 F3 to RbB3 O4 F2 , as well as the structural comparison between NaRbB3 O4 F3 and its identical stoichiometry compound, Li2 B3 O4 F3 were discussed in detail. The IR spectrum verifies its structural validity. The spectral measurement shows that the reflectance has no obvious change in the range of 175-300 nm, and its cutoff edge is below 175 nm. In addition, theoretical calculations are carried out to understand its electronic structure and optical properties.

Abstract
It remains a challenge to develop UV nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals that can achieve a desirable trade-off on UV absorption edge, second harmonic generation (SHG), and birefringence. Here we report a thiosulfate UV NLO crystal of a 2D van der Waals layered structure, [C(NH2)3]2SO3S. Remarkably, this thiosulfate realizes the desired trade-off, with a short absorption edge of 254 nm, a strong SHG response of approximately 2.8 times that of the benchmark KH2PO4, and a sufficient birefringence of 0.073 at the wavelength of 546 nm. In addition, it exhibits strong in-plane anisotropy of the SHG intensity. According to the first-principles calculations, the non-π-conjugated [SO3S]2- anion is the dominant SHG functional gene, while the π-conjugated [C(NH2)3]+ cation serves as the functional gene of birefringence. This is different from common UV NLO materials whose functionals of SHG and birefringence are the same. These findings indicate that combining different function genes may be an effective strategy to develop outstanding NLO materials with the desirable property trade-off.

Abstract
A new congruent-melting lead barium borate, Ba2.5Pb1.5B12O22, was synthesized via a high-temperature solid-state reaction under atmospheric pressure. It crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space group Cmc21 with a unit cell of a = 19.051(8) Å, b = 10.726(3) Å, c = 8.612(3) Å, and Z = 4. It features a new functional building block (FBB), [B12O26]16-, that is made up of five [B3O8]7- and one [BO3]3- connected by sharing vertex O atoms. It is derived by introducing Pb into Ba2B6O11, which leads to a structural transformation from a centrosymmetric to a noncentrosymmetric space group. Its second harmonic generation response (SHG) is approximately 0.9 times that of KDP at the fundamental wavelength of 1064 nm and is also phase-matchable. It has a wide transparent region with a UV cutoff edge of about 250 nm according to the reflectance spectra and high thermal stability, which illustrates that it is a potential candidate for ultraviolet nonlinear optical materials.

Abstract
Metal iodates are of current research interest because of their potential application as nonlinear optical crystals but the exploration of new iodates is mainly concentrated on complex cation iodates. In contrast, iodates with multiple anion groups are rarely reported. In this communication, the first noncentrosymmetric alkaline-metal iodate-sulfate, Na7(IO3)(SO4)3 has been designed, synthesized and characterized.

Abstract
Birefringent materials are widely applied as photoelectric functional field devices to modulate the polarization of lasers. The introduction of a halogen into the structure of crystals could balance the relationship between the band gap Eg and nonlinear optical (NLO) coefficient owing to their outstanding electronegativity and control the optical anisotropy. In this work, the optical properties of phosphohalides α/β-Cd2P3X (X = Cl, Br, I) were studied. It was found that the birefringences of α/β-Cd2P3Cl (0.23/0.24 @ 1064 nm) are unexpectedly 8 times larger than those of α/β-Cd2P3I (0.04/0.03 @ 1064 nm). To find the optical property origins and explore the contributions of microscopic groups to the optical anisotropy and NLO responses in Cd-P-X (X = Cl, Br, I), the first-principles, real-space atom-cutting, and polarizability anisotropy analysis methods were used. This reveals that the electron distribution is susceptible to halogen electronegativity. Halogen atoms can modulate the polarization anisotropy of the active polyhedron and influence the birefringence significantly, owing to the synergistic effect of the anion size and strong covalent interactions between halogens and metal cations. This work clarifies the optical anisotropy origin mechanism and provides a general strategy for finding promising birefringent crystals in phosphohalide systems.

Abstract
A new ternary Ba-based selenide, Ba3SiSe5, was synthesized by a high-temperature solid-state method. It crystallizes in the centrosymmetric space group Pnma (no. 62) of the orthorhombic system. The structure of the title compound consists of unique Se(4)Ba layers and discrete SiSe4 tetrahedra. The structure and computational properties of Ba3SiSe5 are systematically studied together with those of the Ba-MIV-Q (MIV = Si, Ge; Q = S, Se) system, and show an interesting difference in dimensions formed by one of the crystallographic Ba atoms and MIVQ4 tetrahedra, as well as optical property transformations modulated by MIV atoms. First principles methods were employed to obtain a better understanding of the relationship between structures and properties. Ba3SiSe5 maintains a moderate birefringence of 0.044@1064 nm and the real space atom cutting method indicates that the SiSe4 tetrahedra make the major contribution to its birefringence.
