Abstract
Infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials are the core devices to realize IR laser output, which are of vital importance in civilian and military fields. Non-centrosymmetric chalcogenide and pnictide compounds have already been widely accepted as favorable systems for IR-NLO materials. Compared to the extensively investigated IR-NLO chalcogenides during the past few decades, the research of non-centrosymmetric phosphides as IR-NLO materials is relatively scarce. In this frontier article, the recent progress of pnictides as emerging IR-NLO candidates has been highlighted based on the perspective of new crystal exploration. These IR-NLO pnictides recently reported were divided into three groups from binary to quaternary according to their chemical compositions. The synthetic methods, structural chemistry, and structure-activity relationships are analyzed and summarized in detail. Finally, current problems and the future development of this field are also proposed.

Abstract
Two new diamond-like (DL) chalcogenides, Li2MgGeSe4 and Li2MgSnSe4, have been successfully synthesized using a conventional high-temperature solid-state method. The two compounds crystallize in the non-centrosymmetric space group Pmn21 with a = 8.402 (14) Å, b = 7.181 (12) Å, c = 6.728 (11) Å, Z = 2 for Li2MgSnSe4, and a = 8.2961 (7) Å, b = 7.0069 (5) Å, c = 6.6116 (6) Å, Z = 2 for Li2MgGeSe4. The calculated results show that the second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients of Li2MgSnSe4 (d33 = 12.19 pm/v) and Li2MgGeSe4 (d33 = -14.77 pm/v), mainly deriving from the [MSe4] (M = Ge, Sn) tetrahedral units, are close to the one in the benchmark AgGaS2 (d14 = 13.7 pm/V). The calculated band gaps for Li2MgSnSe4 and Li2MgGeSe4 are 2.42 and 2.44 eV, respectively. Moreover, the two compounds are the first series of alkali and alkaline-earth metal DL compounds in the I2-II-IV-VI4 family, enriching the structural diversity of DL compounds.

Abstract
Quaternary chalcogenide materials have long been a source of semiconductors for optoelectronic applications. Recent studies on I2-II-IV-X4 (I = Ag, Cu, Li; II = Ba, Sr, Eu, Pb; IV = Si, Ge, Sn; X = S, Se) materials have shown particular versatility and promise among these compounds. These semiconductors take advantage of a diverse bonding scheme and chemical differences among cations to target a degree of antisite defect resistance. Within this set of compounds, the materials containing both Ag and Sr have not been experimentally studied and leave a gap in the full understanding of the family. Here, we have synthesized powders and single crystals of two Ag- and Sr-containing compounds, Ag2SrSiS4 and Ag2SrGeS4, each found to form in the tetragonal I4̅2m structure of Ag2BaGeS4. During the synthesis targeting the title compounds, two additional materials, Ag2Sr3Si2S8 and Ag2Sr3Ge2S8, have also been identified. These cubic compounds represent impurity phases during the synthesis of Ag2SrSiS4 and Ag2SrGeS4. We show through hybrid density functional theory calculations that Ag2SrSiS4 and Ag2SrGeS4 have highly dispersive band-edge states and indirect band gaps, experimentally measured as 2.08(1) and 1.73(2) eV, respectively. Second-harmonic generation measurements on Ag2SrSiS4 and Ag2SrGeS4 powders show frequency-doubling capabilities in the near-infrared range.

Abstract
Chalcogenides with diamond-like (DL) structures are a treasury of infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. Here, a ternary Hg-based chalcogenide with a defect DL structure, Hg3P2S8, is synthesized by solid-state reaction. Driven by the highly distorted [HgS4] tetrahedra, this compound displays an interesting structural symmetry degradation from tetragonal to orthorhombic compared with its analogue Zn3P2S8. Meanwhile, the overall performances of Hg3P2S8 are quite remarkable, including a very strong phase-matchable second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (4.2 × AgGaS2), large band gap (2.77 eV), wide IR transparent range (0.45-16.7 μm), and high laser-induced damage threshold (4 × AGS). Furthermore, the theoretical analysis and local dipole moment calculations elucidate that the highly distorted [HgS4] tetrahedra contribute a lot to the enhancement of the SHG effect. This discovery will motivate the exploration of other DL Hg-based chalcogenides serving as high-performing mid-IR NLO materials.

Abstract
Two triclinic A2ZnSi3S8 (A = Rb and Cs) with layered structures were successfully synthesized, and their physicochemical performances including optical bandgap, thermal behavior, and optical anisotropy were investigated. A2ZnSi3S8 could be viewed as the first discovered Si-based examples in the known A2MIIMIV3Q8 family (2-1-3-8 system; A = monovalent alkali metal; MII = divalent transition metal; MIV = group 14 metal; Q = chalcogen). The A2MIIMIV3Q8 family members crystallize in five different space groups (P1̅, P21, P21/n, P212121, and Pa3̅), and their structural transformation and optical performances (bandgap, NLO coefficient, and birefringence) were systematically studied based on the first-principles calculation among 13 A2MIIBMIV3Q8 (MIIB = Zn, Cd, and Hg) compounds without cubic β-K2ZnSn3S8. Research result shows that the above 13 compounds exhibit the layered structures, but diverse wavelike layers and their optical anisotropy (Δn) undergo an increasing trend range from the triclinic to orthorhombic systems. Moreover, P212121 compounds have very weak NLO effects compared with those of the P21 compounds since the polarization directions of anionic groups (MIIBQ4 and MIVQ4) in P212121 compounds are directing oppositely and almost completely canceled out by the dipole moment calculation, which further indicates that P21 compounds exhibiting the relatively strong NLO effect and large optical anisotropy could be expected as potential IR NLO candidates.

Abstract
One of the key scientific issues for exploration of novel infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals is to obtain ones with good hybrid NLO behaviors. Herein, we report four diamond-like Ag-based sulfides via stepwise Li substitution of Ag in Ag2ZnSnS4, including Ag2ZnSnS4 (1), (Li1.22Ag0.78)ZnSnS4 (2), (Li1.58Ag0.42)ZnSnS4 (3), and Li2ZnSnS4 (4). With the increase of Li content, the sulfide's noncentrosymmetric crystal structure changes from tetragonal I42m for 1, to orthorhombic Pmn21 for 2 and 3, and to monoclinic Pn for 4. Accordingly, their NLO responses are improved along with the increase of Li content, viz. from non-NLO-active for 1, to non-phase-matchable for 2 and 3, and to phase-matchable for 4. Their optical band gaps also increase regularly. The relationship between their chemical compositions, crystal structures, and NLO activities is investigated by means of chemical structural analysis and theoretical calculation. This work offers a new systematic case for designing promising NLO-active compounds via rarely adopted cation's stepwise partial substitution and understanding the chemical composition-structure-NLO property relationship.

Abstract
Large band gap and strong nonlinear optical (NLO) effect are two valuable but contradictory parameters, which are difficult to balance in one infrared (IR) NLO material. Herein, the first alkali and alkaline-earth metal diamond-like (DL) IR NLO material Li4 MgGe2 S7 , presenting a honeycomb-like 3D framework constructed by 6-membered LiS4 rings and GeMgS6 zigzag chains, was rationally designed and synthesized. The introduction of rigid alkali metal and alkaline-earth metal LiS4 and MgS4 tetrahedra effectively broadens the band gap of DL compound to 4.12 eV (the largest one in the reported quaternary metal chalcogenides), generating a high laser damage threshold of 7 × AgGaS2 at 1064 nm. Furthermore, Li4 MgGe2 S7 displays a suitable SHG response (0.7 × AgGaS2 ) with a type I phase-matching behavior. The results indicate that Li4 MgGe2 S7 is a promising IR NLO material for the high-power laser application and it provides an insight into the design of new DL compound with outstanding IR NLO performances.

Abstract
Quaternary nonlinear optical single crystals AgxGaxGe1-xSe2 (x = 0.250, 0.167) were grown by the Bridgman method in a four-zone furnace. The thermal expansion behavior of AgxGaxGe1-xSe2 (x = 0.25, 0.167) was studied by the method of single-crystal X-ray diffraction from 150 to 295 K and powder X-ray diffraction in the range of 298-773 K. Both results show the crystals have positive linear thermal expansion coefficients in different directions and a positive volume thermal expansion coefficient, and it is observed that they satisfy the relationship of αa > αc > αb and αV ≈ αa + αb + αc for the orthorhombic structure. It is found that the AgxGaxGe1-xSe2 (x = 0.25, 0.167) unit cells varying with temperature were mainly dominated by variations in framework geometry (AgSe4 tetrahedron), and the thermal motion of Ag atoms in the AgSe4 tetrahedron. As it was revealed, according to the powder X-ray diffraction, it is found that the isotropic thermal atomic displacement parameter of the Ag atoms is much larger than those of the Se and Ga(Ge) atoms in the AgSe4 tetrahedron. Furthermore, anisotropic atomic displacement parameters (ADPs) of Ag atoms are extracted from the single-crystal diffraction; the ADPs along the a axis, b axis, and c axis have a significant difference, which means the thermal vibration of Ag atoms is anisotropic. It is of great significance for improving crystal growth technology and understanding the thermal properties of this kind of crystals.

Abstract
Balancing the second-harmonic generation (SHG) coefficient, band gap, and birefringence is a vital but addressable challenge for designing infrared nonlinear optical materials. By applying a "rigidity-flexibility coupling" strategy, a quaternary diamond-like phosphide, Mg2In3Si2P7, with wurtzite-type superstructure was successfully designed and synthesized. Remarkably, it achieved the rare coexistence of giant second-harmonic generation (2 × ZnGeP2 and 7.1 × AgGaS2), suitable band gap (2.21 eV), moderate birefringence (0.107), and wide IR transparent range (0.56-16.4 μm). First-principles calculations revealed that the giant SHG response and large birefringence can be attributed to the synergy of arrangement-aligned [InP4] and [SiP4] tetrahedra. This work not only opens a new avenue for designing advanced infrared nonlinear optical materials but also may spur more explorations on quaternary diamond-like pnictides.

Abstract
Despite the fact that nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals such as AgGaS2 and AgGaSe2 have been widely used in the infrared (IR) range due to their large second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients and wide range of IR transparency windows, the small laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) remains a great issue hindering their high-power applications. Herein, three noncentrosymmetric (NCS) chalcogenides AZn4Ga5Se12 (A = K, Rb, or Cs) are successfully obtained through an appropriate flux method after the extensive design and synthesis of the A/Zn/Ga/Q system. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction data demonstrate that they adopt trigonal space group R3 (No. 146) with three-dimensional diamond-like frameworks composed of [M9Se24] layers (M = Zn or Ga) stacking in the same direction and filled by charge-balancing A+ cations. Noticeably, they all exhibit strong powder SHG responses (2.8-3.7 × AgGaS2) and amazing LIDTs (19.2-23.4 × AgGaS2). In addition, theoretical calculations are performed to further determine the relationship between NCS structures and NLO properties. This work provides effective solutions for overcoming the trade-off between strong SHG and high LIDT in IR-NLO materials.

Abstract
Concurrently achieving suitable second harmonic generation (SHG) effect and high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) is challenging for infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. Here, a series of pentanary infrared NLO materials CsMIIIMIVSnSe6 (MIII = Ga, In; MIV = Si, Ge) have been obtained by a three-in-one strategy, viz. three kinds of elements (MIII, MIV, and Sn) in one position, which is first adopted to design NLO materials. Their three-dimensional structures are constructed by the MQ4 (M denotes MIII, MIV, and Sn) tetrahedral units. They exhibit promising hybrid NLO properties, witnessed by their moderate/large SHG effects of 0.52, 0.98, 1.05, and 1.12 × AgGaS2, and high powder LIDT values of 6.9, 4.1, 8.1, and 5.4 × AgGaS2, respectively. These NLO properties are well verified by the DFT calculation results. The three-in-one strategy of designing high-performance infrared NLO materials will stimulate more investigations in this field.

Abstract
A series of pentanary chalcogenoborates (A3X)[InB12(InQ4)3] (A = K, Rb, Cs; X = Cl, Br, I; Q = S, Se) were obtained by high-temperature solid-state reactions. These salt-inclusion chalcogenides crystallize in the hexagonal space group P6322, a type of Kleinman-forbidden noncentrosymmetric structure. Their structures feature a [InB12(InQ4)3] open framework built by InQ6 octahedra and InQ4 tetrahedra consolidated B12 cluster, which accomodates octahedral cavities for XA6 units. They are second-harmonic generation active, and their optical properties were studied experimentally and theoretically. This work can evoke more interest in chalcogenoborate-based second-order nonlinear optical materials.

Abstract
Metal chalcogenides play a critical role in the infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) field. However, Eu-based chalcogenide-type IR NLO materials are still scarce up to now. In this paper, two new quaternary Eu-based chalcogenides, EuHgGeSe4 and EuHgSnS4, containing the "NLO active groups" [HgQ4]6- (Q = S, Se) and [GeSe4]4-/[SnS4]4- were synthesized through traditional high-temperature solid-state reactions. They possess noncentrosymmetric structures, crystallizing in the Ama2 space group, and exhibit strong phase-matchable second-harmonic-generation (SHG) responses (3.1× and 1.77× that of AgGaS2 for EuHgGeSe4 and EuHgSnS4, respectively). Meanwhile, the optical band gaps of EuHgGeSe4 (1.97 eV) and EuHgSnS4 (2.14 eV) were determined from UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectra. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses reveal the congruent-melting behavior of EuHgGeSe4. Furthermore, structural analysis and theoretical calculations verify the critical driving effects of [HgQ4]6- tetrahedra on the strong SHG activity. The overall results demonstrate that EuHgGeSe4 and EuHgSnS4 are potential IR NLO materials.

Abstract
Exploration of a new nonlinear optical (NLO)-active functional motif is important in the rational design of promising infrared (IR) NLO materials. Compared with typical tetrahedral MQ4 (M = IIB, III, IV metals; Q = S, Se) motifs, MQ3 (M = As, Sb) pyramids favor high second-harmonic generation (SHG) efficiency while frequently hindering phase matching (PM) because of excessively large optical anisotropy. The surfactant-thermal method was first adopted to achieve PM in MQ3-containing systems and synthesize mixed covalent-ionic IR NLO materials. Two new thioarsenates of AMnAs3S6 (A = Cs, Rb) exhibiting strong PM SHG efficiencies comparable to commercial AGS and laser-induced damage thresholds of one order higher than AGS were obtained. The [As3S6]3- unit in their structures is an unprecedented NLO-active functional motif, which can be useful in designing new IR NLO compounds with large SHG efficiency. In addition, the surfactant-thermal method provides a new general strategy for synthesizing new IR NLO materials.

Abstract
To design pnictide nonlinear optical materials with wide band gap and large second-harmonic generation, the heavy halogen I was introduced into pnictides through anionic aliovalent substitution with diamond-like ZnS as templates. Thus, four excellent halopnictide-based infrared nonlinear optical crystals, MII 3 PnI3 (MII =Zn, Cd; Pn=P, As), were obtained. They all exhibited defect diamond-like structures with highly parallel-oriented [MII PnI3 ] mixed-anionic tetrahedral groups, leading to excellent physical properties including wide band gaps (2.38-2.85 eV), large second harmonic generation responses (2.7-5.1×AgGaS2 ), high laser-induced damage thresholds (5.5-10.7×AgGaS2 ), and good IR transparency. In particular, Cd3 PI3 and Cd3 AsI3 achieved phase-matching (Δn=0.035 and 0.031) that their template β-ZnS could not do. Anionic aliovalent substitution provides a feasible strategy to design novel promising halopnictide IR NLO materials.

Abstract
Owing to wide infrared (IR) transparency ranges, high laser damage thresholds, and being easy to grow in open air, germanates are emerging as promising mid-infrared (mid-IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. However, the germanates as NLO materials have not been investigated comprehensively and the crystals with large second harmonic generation (SHG) response have not been identified. Herein, we used the first-principles high-throughput screening pipeline for NLO materials to search for excellent NLO crystals from germanates collected in the inorganic crystal structure database. After two steps of screening, three crystals are picked out from 128 structures based on their predicted energy gaps, birefringences, and SHG coefficients. Subsequently, the three germanates are synthesized and measured. The results show that Pb3Ga2Ge4O14 and Ba2TiGe2O8 exhibit a wide energy gap (>3.1 eV) and a strong phase-matchable SHG intensity that are comparable to the benchmark AgGaS2 (0.8 and 1.2 × AgGaS2, respectively). In addition, the statistical analyses of different categories classified according to their cations show that the d0-transition metal and lone pair cations are more conducive to achieving a larger SHG response and birefringence compared to other cations in germanates. It gives a guideline for exploring new mid-IR NLO materials.

Abstract
The two functional chalcogenides K2MnGe2Se6 and Na2HgSn2Se6, featuring a straight-chain structure, have been successfully prepared and fully characterized. K2MnGe2Se6 shows paramagnetic behavior. The birefringence of Na2HgSn2Se6 is as large as 0.3107 and derives from the superposition of the polarizabilities of its fundamental building blocks, on the basis of first-principles calculations. Moreover, the flexible framework of the A2MIIMIV2Se6 family enables a variety of heterogeneous substitutions and thus offers possible birefringence tunability, which may inspire the design and exploratory synthesis of IR birefringent materials.

Abstract
The balance between second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity and laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT), together with phase-matchable behavior, is the key point for exploration of novel nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. In this work, the NLO property of defect wurtzite-type hexagonal-In2Se3 (γ) is extensively explored first. It exhibits a strong SHG intensity of 2.6 × AgGaS2 (AGS) at 2.1 μm, and a high powder LIDT of 7.3 × AGS. From wurtzite to γ-In2Se3, the birefringence changes from 0.003 to 0.075, resulting in the phase-matchable phenomenon of γ-In2Se3. This is well ascribed to the contribution of the unique InSe5 unit in γ-In2Se3 from the result of birefringence calculation and analysis.

Abstract
Combining high-throughput screening and machine learning models is a rapidly developed direction for the exploration of novel optoelectronic functional materials. Here, we employ random forests regression (RFR) model to investigate the second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients of nonlinear optical crystals with distinct diamond-like (DL) structures. 61 DL structures in Inorganic Crystallographic Structure Database (ICSD) are selected, and four distinctive descriptors, including band gap, electronegativity, group volume and bond flexibility, are used to model and predict second-order nonlinearity. It is demonstrated that the RFR model has reached the first-principles calculation accuracy, and gives validated predictions for a variety of representative DL crystals. Additionally, this model shows promising applications to explore new crystal materials of quaternary DL system with superior mid-IR NLO performances. Two new potential NLO crystals, Li2CuPS4 with ultrawide bandgap and Cu2CdSnTe4 with giant SHG response, are identified by this model.

New compounds with multiple anions are receiving increasing interest in view of their diverse structures and physical properties. Here we report four isostructural hexanary RE6Ta2MgQB8O26 (RE = Sm, Eu, Gd; Q = S, Se), belonging to the rare chalcogenide borates. Their structures feature an unprecedented [B4O10]8- unit comprised of one BO4 and three BO3 units. Their 3D structures are constructed by the connection between QRE6 octahedra and the ∞{[Mg(TaB4O13)2]16-} polyanionic layer. Density functional theory calculations on the electronic structure and a birefringence of 4 are also performed.

Abstract
A hot topic in materials science is to search for nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals, which are indispensable in current laser technology, future optical information, and precision measurements. In the period of the 1980s and 1990s, the anionic group theory proposed by Prof. Chuangtian Chen has greatly promoted the inventions of BaB2O4 (BBO), LiB3O5 (LBO), and KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF) which are widely applied in the ultraviolet (UV) spectral region today. From the beginning of this century, the rapid development of laser science and technology urgently demands new NLO crystals for wider application ranges. However, commercial NLO crystals in deep-UV and mid-infrared (mid-IR) regions are scarce. The challenge arises from the stringent criteria at various wavelengths and inefficient exploration strategy. As such, more comprehensive and quantitative theoretical guidance is necessary to improve and supplement the NLO structure-property understandings. Benefiting from high-performance computing resources, first-principles design and simulations came into being, which is more applicable to the understanding of mid-IR NLO mechanism and suitable for the efficient design of new NLO structures for current needs. In the past decade, a complete set of computational research programs based on first-principles simulations have been developed, which have promoted the development of NLO crystals in the deep-UV and mid-IR regions, and guided the subsequent and further experimental explorations. Based on our developed first-principles materials design system, the discoveries of NLO materials have ranged from basic theoretical design to rapid-prototyping and final experimental synthesis. In this Account, we will concisely summarize our ab initio guided and forward-looking studies on NLO crystals, which are our original contributions to this field and can be consulted by other material fields. First, we will review the development of NLO crystals and the important features of NLO materials. Second, we will summarize the important role of computer-aided design in advancing the NLO material field and our developed NLO material design system based on the first-principles simulations. Third, we will introduce the first-principles design for new deep-UV NLO crystals using two novel design proposals, i.e., interlayer cationic replacement and intralayer anionic substitution. Meanwhile, we will illustrate the hierarchical molecular engineering optimizations for mid-IR NLO crystals by illustrating an extended mid-IR NLO family pedigree, from which many promising mid-IR NLO systems were predicted theoretically and confirmed experimentally. Finally, we will give an outlook to explore new functional NLO crystals guided by our first-principles design and simulations. We believe that the computer-assisted exploration for new functional NLO materials is useful for understanding structure-property relationships and can provide researchers with a new approach to cost-effective and data-driven materials design.
