Abstract
This study pioneers a novel strategy for synthesizing solar-blind ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals through functional groups sequential construction, effectively addressing the inherent trade-offs among broad transmittance, enhanced second-harmonic generation (SHG), and optimal birefringence. We have developed two innovative van der Waals layered germanous phosphites: GeHPO3, the first Ge(II)-based oxide NLO crystal which exhibits a black phosphorus-like structure, and K(GeHPO3)2Br, distinguished by its exceptional birefringence and graphene-like structure. Significantly, GeHPO3 exhibits a remarkable array of NLO properties, including the highest SHG coefficient recorded among all NLO crystals for phase-matching and generating 266 nm coherent light via quadruple frequency conversion. It delivers a potent SHG intensity, surpassing KH2PO4 (KDP) by 10.3 times at 1064 nm and β-BaB2O4 by 1.3 times at 532 nm, complemented by a distinct UV absorption edge at 211 nm and moderate birefringence of 0.062 at 546 nm. Comprehensive theoretical analysis links these exceptional characteristics to the unique NLO-active GeO3 4- units and the distinctive, highly ordered layered structures. Our findings deliver essential experimental insights into the development of Ge(II)-based optoelectronic materials and present a strategic blueprint for engineering structure-driven functional materials with customized properties.

Abstract
Oriented synthesis of functional materials is a focus of attention in material science. As one of the most important function materials, infrared nonlinear optical materials with large second harmonic generation effects and broad optical band gap are in urgent need. In this work, directed by the theoretical structure prediction, the first series of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) alkali-alkaline earth metal [PS4]-based thiophosphates LiCaPS4 (Ama2), NaCaPS4 (P21), KCaPS4 (Pna21), RbCaPS4 (Pna21), CsCaPS4 (Pna21) were successfully synthesized. Comprehensive characterizations reveal that ACaPS4 could be regarded as promising IR NLO materials, exhibiting wide band gap (3.77-3.86 eV), moderate birefringence (0.027-0.064 at 1064 nm), high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT, ~10×AGS), and suitable phase-matching second harmonic generation responses (0.4-0.6×AGS). Structure-properties analyses illustrate that the Ca-S bonds show non-ignorable covalent feature, and [PS4] together with [CaSn] units play dominant roles to determine the band gap and SHG response. This work indicates that Li-, Na- and K- analogs may be promising infrared nonlinear optical material candidates, and this is the first successful case of "prediction to synthesis" involving infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals in the thiophosphate system and may provide a new avenue to the design and oriented synthesis of high-performance function materials in the future.

Abstract
Manipulating the crystal orientation plays a crucial role in the conversion efficiency during second harmonic generation (SHG). Here, we provide a new strategy in controlling the surface-dependent anisotropic SHG with the precise design of (101) and (21 ‾ ${\bar 1}$ 0) MAGeI3 facets. Based on the SHG measurement, the (101) MAGeI3 single crystal exhibits larger SHG (1.3×(21 ‾ ${\bar 1}$ 0) MAGeI3). Kelvin probe force microscopy imaging shows a smaller work function for the (101) MAGeI3 compared with the (21 ‾ ${\bar 1}$ 0), which indirectly demonstrates the stronger intrinsic polarization on the (101) surface. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirms the band bending within the (101) facet. Temperature-dependent steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy show shorter lifetime and wider emission band in the (101) MAGeI3 single crystal, revealing the higher defect states. Additionally, powder X-ray diffraction patterns show the (101) MAGeI3 possesses larger in-plane polar units [GeI3]- density, which could directly enhance the spontaneous polarization in the (101) facet. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation further demonstrates the higher intrinsic polarization in the (101) facet compared with the (21 ‾ ${\bar 1}$ 0) facet, and the larger built-in electric field in the (101) facet facilitates surface vacancy defect accumulation. Our work provides a new angle in tuning and optimizing hybrid perovskite-based nonlinear optical materials.

Abstract
The exploration of nonlinear optical crystals with ultraviolet (UV) transparent ranges and easy-to-grow large-size crystals is one of the current research interests. Herein, by combining borate and phosphate groups, a novel congruently melting alkali-mixed metal borophosphate, Li3Na7B4P6O26 (LNBPO) with UV transparency was successfully designed and synthesized using a high-temperature flux method. LNBPO crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric (NCS) and polar orthorhombic space group Pca21 (no. 29), showcasing interesting (B2P3O13)∞ chains along the c axis. Notably, LNBPO has a moderate second harmonic generation (SHG) response (∼0.38 × KDP) and displays a wide transmission ranging from 0.22 to 3.68 μm, as measured by a [001]-oriented crystal wafer. Furthermore, a high-quality single crystal of LNBPO with sizes up to 14 × 14 × 12 mm3 was grown using the top-seeded solution growth method. The refractive indices of LNBPO were determined by applying the minimum deviation angle method. These results show that LNBPO possesses a phase-matching wavelength as short as 483 nm, indicating its potential as a new UV NLO crystal.

Abstract
Solid-state structures with the superhalogen [BO2]- have thus far only been observed with a few compounds whose syntheses require high reaction temperatures and complicated procedures, while their optical properties remain almost completely unexplored. Herein, we report a facile, energy-efficient synthesis of the first [BO2]-based deep-ultraviolet (deep-UV) transparent oxide K9[B4O5(OH)4]3(CO3)(BO2) ⋅ 7H2O (KBCOB). Detailed structural characterization and analysis confirm that KBCOB possesses a rare four-in-one three-dimensional quasi-honeycomb framework, with three π-conjugated anions ([BO2]-, [BO3]3-, and [CO3]2-) and one non-π-conjugated anion ([BO4]5-) in the one crystal. The evolution from the traditional halogenated nonlinear optical (NLO) analogues to KBCOB by superhalogen [BO2]- substitution confers deep-UV transparency (<190 nm), a large second-harmonic generation response (1.0×KH2PO4 @ 1064 nm), and a 15-fold increase in birefringence. This study affords a new route to the facile synthesis of functional [BO2]-based oxides, paving the way for the development of next-generation high-performing deep-UV NLO materials.

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals that can expand the spectral range of laser outputs have attracted significant attention for their optoelectronic applications. The research progress from the discovery of new single crystal structures to the realization of final device applications involves many key steps and is very time consuming and challenging. Consequently, exploring efficient design strategies to shorten the research period and accelerate the rational design of novel NLO materials has become imperative to address the pressing demand for advanced materials. The recent shift in paradigm toward exploring new NLO crystals involves significant progress from extensive "trial and error" methodologies to strategic approaches. This review proposes the concept of rational structure design for nonlinear optical crystals leveraging advantageous templates. It further discusses their optical characteristics, promising applications as second-order NLO materials, and the relationship between their structure and performance, and highlights urgent issues that need to be addressed in the field of NLO crystals in the future. The review aims to provide ideas and driving impetus to encourage researchers to achieve new breakthroughs in the next generation of NLO materials.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2311391.

Abstract
Guided by a superb dual-ions cosubstitution strategy, two novel, highly optically anisotropic hybrid bismuth halides are designed and synthesized. The first compound, Gu3Bi2NO3Cl8 (Gu = C(NH2)3), is developed using the 2D perovskite halide Cs3Bi2Cl9 as the maternal structure. This involved substituting all Cs+ cations with organic Gu+ and replacing some Cl- anions with [NO3]-. Further substitution of Cl- with additional [NO3]- resulted in the formation of nitrate-rich Gu2Bi(NO3)3Cl2 crystal, exhibiting a 3.4-fold increase in [NO3]- per unit volume. Both compounds have a structurally 0D nature, comprising bismuth-centered polyhedra formed by coordinated chlorides and monodentate/bidentate nitrate moieties, with Gu+ serving as a separator and linker. Notably, the presence of superb optically anisotropic dual-ions, i.e., planar Gu+ and [NO3]-, enables these crystals to possess sharply enhanced optical anisotropy, with birefringence values more than 1 order of magnitude higher than that of the initial crystal Cs3Bi2Cl9 (0.162/0.186vs 0.011 at 546 nm). The discovery and characterization of Gu3Bi2NO3Cl8 and Gu2Bi(NO3)3Cl2 crystals provide new insights into achieving expected modifications in optical properties through the utilization of a dual-ions cosubstitution strategy.

Abstract
High-performance nonlinear-optical (NLO) crystals need to simultaneously meet multiple basic and conflicting performance requirements. Here, by using a partial chemical substitution strategy, the first noncentrosymmetric (NCS) PbBeB2O5 crystal with a BeB2O8 group was synthesized, exhibiting a two-dimensional [BeB2O5]∞ layer constructed by interconnecting BeB2O8 groups and bridged PbO4 with an active lone pair. The crystal shows a promising UV NLO functional feature, including a strong SHG effect of 3.5 × KDP (KH2PO4), large birefringence realizing phase matchability in the whole transparency region from 246 to 2500 nm, a short UV absorption edge of 246 nm, and single-crystal easy growth. Remarkably, theoretical studies reveal that the BeB2O8 group has high nonlinear activity, which could stimulate the discovery of a series of excellent NLO beryllium borates.

Chem Sci 2024; 15:6572-6576.

Abstract
The key properties of nonlinear optical (NLO) materials highly rely on the quality of functional chromophores (FCs) and their optimized interarrangement in the lattice. Despite the screening of various FCs, significant challenges persist in optimizing their arrangement within specific structures. Generally, FC alignment is achieved by designing negatively charged 2D layers or 3D frameworks, further regulated by templating cations. In this study, a novel 0D adduct NLO material, SbF3·glycine, is reported. Neutrally charged 0D [SbF3C2H5NO2] FCs, comprising [SbF3] pyramids and zwitterionic glycine, are well-aligned in the structure. The alignment is facilitated by the hydrogen bonding, reinforcing a 'head-to-tail' ligation of [SbF3C2H5NO2] FCs. Consequently, the title compound exhibits favorable NLO properties, including a large second-harmonic generation efficiency (3.6 × KDP) and suitable birefringence (cal. 0.057 @ 1064 nm). Additionally, its short absorption cut-off edge (231 nm) positions it as a promising short-wave ultraviolet NLO material. Importantly, the binary SbF3-amino acid system is expected to serve as a new resource for exploring ultraviolet NLO crystals, owing to the abundance of the amino acid family.

Abstract
Oxides have attracted considerable attention owing to their potential for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications. Although significant progress has been achieved in optimizing the structural characteristics of primitives (corresponding to the simplest constituent groups, namely, cations/anions/neutral molecules) comprising the crystalline oxides, the role of the primitives' interaction in determining the resultant functional structure and optical properties has long been underappreciated and remains unclear. In this study, we employ a π-conjugated organic primitive confinement strategy to manipulate the interactions between primitives in antimonates and thereby significantly enhance the optical nonlinearity. Chemical bonds and relatively weak H-bonding interactions promote the formation of cis- and trans-Sb(III)-based dimer configurations in (C5H5NO)(Sb2OF4) (4-HPYSOF) and (C5H7N2)(Sb2F7) (4-APSF), respectively, resulting in very different second-harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies and birefringences. In particular, 4-HPYSOF displays an exceptionally strong SHG response (12 × KH2PO4 at 1064 nm) and a large birefringence (0.513 at 546 nm) for a Sb(III)-based NLO oxide as well as a UV cutoff edge. Structural analyses and theoretical studies indicate that polarized ionic bond interactions facilitate the favorable arrangement of both the inorganic and organic primitives, thereby significantly enhancing the optical nonlinearity in 4-HPYSOF. Our findings shed new light on the intricate correlations between the interactions of primitives, inorganic primitive configuration, and SHG properties, and, more broadly, our approach provides a new perspective in the development of advanced NLO materials through the interatomic bond engineering of oxides.

Yan M, Tang RL, Yao WD, Liu W, Guo SP. Exploring a new short-wavelength nonlinear optical fluoride material featuring unprecedented polar cis-[Zr 6F 34] 10- clusters. Chem Sci 2024; 15:2883-2888. [PMID: 38404379 PMCID: PMC10882493 DOI: 10.1039/d3sc06683e] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/15/2024] [Indexed: 02/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Traditional fluorides are rarely reported as candidates for nonlinear optical (NLO) materials featuring a deep-ultraviolet cutoff edge. Theoretical investigations suggest that the ZrF8 dodecahedron shows large polarizability anisotropy and benefits for large birefringence. Herein, a new fluorine-rich fluoride, K3Ba2Zr6F31, was synthesized by coupling the ZrF8 group, featuring acentric cis-[Zr6F34]10- clusters with a 63-screw axis. Significantly, K3Ba2Zr6F31 exhibits a short UV cutoff edge (below 200 nm) and moderate second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (0.5 × KH2PO4). It also possesses a relatively large birefringence (0.08@1064 nm), together with a broad transparency window (2.5-21.1 μm). First-principles calculations suggest that the cis-[Zr6F34]10- cluster built by ZrF8 dodecahedra are the dominant contributors to the large band gap (7.89 eV, cal.) and SHG response simultaneously. Such systematic work highlights that Zr-based fluorides afford a new paradigm for the development of efficient NLO materials with a short UV cutoff edge.

Abstract
Acquiring high-performance ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials that simultaneously exhibit a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) coefficients, as short as possible SHG phase-matching (PM) wavelength and non-hygroscopic properties has consistently posed a significant challenge. Herein, through multicomponent modification of KBe2 BO3 F2 (KBBF), an excellent UV NLO crystal, Mg(C3 O4 H2 )(H2 O)2 , was successfully synthesized in malonic system. This material possesses a unique 2D NLO-favorable electroneutral [Mg(C3 O4 H2 )3 (H2 O)2 ]∞ layer, resulting in the rare coexistence of a strong SHG response of 3×KDP (@1064 nm) and short PM wavelength of 200 nm. More importantly, it exhibits exceptional water resistance, which is rare among ionic organic NLO crystals. Theoretical calculations revealed that its excellent water-resistant may be originated from its small available cavity volumes, which is similar to the famous LiB3 O5 (LBO). Therefore, excellent NLO properties and stability against air and moisture indicate it should be a promising UV NLO crystal.

Abstract
A novel zinc phosphate derivative of Sr2Be2B2O7 (SBBO), K(NH4)Zn2(PO4)2 (KNZP), featuring [Zn2P2O8]∞2- double layers akin to the [Be2B2O7]∞4- layers in SBBO, was successfully synthesized via a moderate hydrothermal method. Through the substitution of BeO4 and BO3 with ZnO4 and PO4, the issue of toxicity has been effectively resolved, while the enhanced interlayer interactions facilitated by covalent and hydrogen bonding in KNZP overcome the inherent structural instability. Notably, KNZP exhibits a wide transparent window and a moderate second-harmonic generation (SHG) intensity, reaching 0.7 times that of KH2PO4 (KDP), rendering it type-I phase-matchable, indicating that it is a promising UV nonlinear optical (NLO) material.

Abstract
Herein, two new Sb3+-based phosphites, Sb2O2(HPO3) (I) and Sb2O(HPO3)2 (II), were successfully obtained by ingeniously combining Sb3+-based polyhedra containing stereochemically active lone pair (SCALP) and HPO3 polar groups. Both reported compounds exhibit unique 2D van der Waals layered structures, [Sb4O4(HPO3)2]∞ and [Sb2O(HPO3)2]∞, respectively, which favors compounds with large optical anisotropy. Interestingly, the different curvatures of the two layers resulted in the two title compounds showing significantly different birefringences (0.079@546 and 0.046@546 nm, respectively). Both compounds endow wide optical band gaps (4.32 and 4.54 eV, respectively), which indicates their potential as promising ultraviolet (UV) birefringent crystals. The synthesis of the two title compounds enriched Sb3+-based phosphites in the UV region and provided guidance for the subsequent synthesis of superior optical materials.

Abstract
Second-harmonic generation (SHG) response and birefringence stand as fundamental optical properties for nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. Up to now, engineering a strong SHG response and substantial birefringence in the sulfamate system has proven to be exceedingly challenging. A novel noncentrosymmetric compound, Sr(NH2SO3)(NO3)·H2O, has been meticulously designed by introducing the (NO3)- group characterized by significant polarizability anisotropy and hyperpolarizability into the polar non-π-conjugated (NH2SO3)- system. This compound exhibits a robust SHG response (5.2 × KDP), ample birefringence (0.077 at 546.1 nm), and a short ultraviolet (UV) absorption edge (290 nm). The linear and nonlinear optical properties can be attributed to the (NO3)- group and the (NH2SO3)- group. This study presents an effective approach that contributes to the design of more composite anionic UV NLO materials with excellent and balanced optical properties.

Abstract
Oxides are emerging candidates for mid-infrared (mid-IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. However, their intrinsically weak second harmonic generation (SHG) effects hinder their further development. A major design challenge is to increase the nonlinear coefficient while maintaining the broad mid-IR transmission and high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of the oxides. In this study, it is reported on a polar NLO tellurite, Cd2 Nb2 Te4 O15 (CNTO), featuring a pseudo-Aurivillius-type perovskite layered structure composed of three types of NLO active groups, including CdO6 octahedra, NbO6 octahedra, and TeO4 seesaws. The uniform orientation of the distorted units induces a giant SHG response that is ≈31 times larger than that of KH2 PO4 , the largest value among all reported metal tellurites. Additionally, CNTO exhibits a large band gap (3.75 eV), a wide optical transparency window (0.33-14.5 µm), superior birefringence (0.12@ 546 nm), high LIDT (23 × AgGaS2 ), and strong acid and alkali resistance, indicating its potential as a promising mid-IR NLO material.

Abstract
Herein, we have successfully synthesized two rubidium antimony (III) oxalates, namely, Rb2Sb(C2O4)2.5(H2O)3 and RbSb2(C2O4)F5, utilizing a low-temperature hydrothermal method. These two compounds share a similar chemical composition, consisting of Sb3+ cations with active lone pair electrons, alkali metal Rb+ ions, and planar π-conjugated C2O42- anions. However, they exhibit different symmetries, Rb2Sb(C2O4)2.5(H2O)3 is centrosymmetric (CS), while RbSb2(C2O4)F5 is noncentrosymmetric (NCS), which should be caused by the presence of F- ions. Notably, the NCS compound, RbSb2(C2O4)F5, demonstrates a moderate second-harmonic generation (SHG) response, approximately 1.3 times that of KH2PO4 (KDP), and exhibits a large birefringence of 0.09 at 546 nm. These characteristics indicate that RbSb2(C2O4)F5 holds promising potential as a nonlinear optical material for ultraviolet (UV) applications. Detailed structural analysis and theoretical calculations confirm that the excellent optical properties arise from the synergistic effects between Sb3+ cations with SCALP and planar π-conjugated [C2O4]2- groups.

Abstract
Three polyborates, namely, LiNa11B28O48, Li1.45Na7.55B21O36, and Li2Na4Ca7Sr2B13O27F9, were synthesized via the high-temperature solution method. All of them feature high-symmetry [B12O24] units, yet their anion groups exhibit distinct dimensions. LiNa11B28O48 features a three-dimensional anionic structure of 3[B28O48]∞ framework, which is composed of three units: [B12O24], [B15O30], and [BO3]. Li1.45Na7.55B21O36 possesses a one-dimensional anionic structure of 1[B21O36]∞ chain consisting of [B12O24] and [B9O18] units. The anionic structure of Li2Na4Ca7Sr2B13O27F9 is composed of two zero-dimensional isolated units, namely, [B12O24] and [BO3]. The novel FBBs [B15O30] and [B21O39] are present in LiNa11B28O48 and Li1.45Na7.55B21O36, respectively. The anionic groups in these compounds exhibit a high degree of polymerization, thereby augmenting the structural diversity of borates. And the crystal structure, synthesis, thermal stability, and optical properties were meticulously discussed to guide the synthesis and characterization of novel polyborates.

Abstract
Borates provide an excellent platform for investigating the optical nonlinearity and linearity of crystals as photoelectric functional materials. In our work, borate derivatives with isolated [B3O3] six-membered rings as structural features are the preferred system due to their simple functional units and excellent properties. Herein, by utilizing the target-oriented synthesis, a series of borate derivatives, A2[B3O3F4(OH)] (A= NH4, Rb, Cs) (ABOFH), K2.3Cs0.7B3O3F6 (KCsBOF), and Cs3[B3O3(OH)3]Cl3 (CsBOHCl), with novel heteroanionic groups containing [BOxF4-x] (x = 0-3) and/or [BO2(OH)] units were obtained. ABOFH, KCsBOF, and CsBOHCl construct different two-dimensional pesudolayers featuring [B3O3F4(OH)], [B3O3F6], and [B3O3(OH)3] units, respectively. Also, the optical properties and the arrangement information of these anionic groups were studied. Among the total five compounds, (NH4)2[B3O3F4(OH)] and Cs3[B3O3(OH)3]Cl3 with enlarged birefringence and sufficient band gaps were screened out as promising birefringent crystals due to the optimally aligned configuration of birefringence-active heteroanionic units. The successful results of target-oriented synthesis indicate a more profound conclusion that the borate system now has more diversified structural chemistry, and an effective strategy was proposed to modify the arrangement and species of anionic units to optimize the performance of optical crystals.

Abstract
A polar tetragonal tungsten bronze, Pb1.91 K3.22 □0.85 Li2.96 Nb10 O30 (□: vacancies), has been successfully synthesized by a high temperature solid-state reaction. Single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction indicate that the structure of Pb1.91 K3.22 □0.85 Li2.96 Nb10 O30 crystallizing in the noncentrosymmetric (NCS) space group, P4bm, consists of 3D framework with highly distorted NbO6 , LiO9 , PbO12 , and (Pb/K)O15 polyhedra. While NCS Pb1.91 K3.22 □0.85 Li2.96 Nb10 O30 undergoes a reversible phase transition between polar (P4bm) and nonpolar (P4/mbm) structure at around 460 °C, the material decomposes to centrosymmetric Pb1.45 K3.56 Li3.54 Nb10 O30 (P4/mbm) once heated to 1200 °C. Powder second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements with 1064 nm radiation indicate that Pb1.91 K3.22 □0.85 Li2.96 Nb10 O30 exhibits a giant phase-matchable SHG intensity of ≈71.5 times that of KH2 PO4 , which is the strongest intensity in the visible range among all nonlinear optical materials reported to date. The observed colossal SHG should be attributable to the synergistic effect of dipole moments from the well-aligned NbO6 octahedra, the constituting distortive channels with vacancies, and highly polarizable cations.

Abstract
Two melamine-based metal halides, (C3 N6 H7 )(C3 N6 H6 )HgCl3 (I) and (C3 N6 H7 )3 HgCl5 (II), are synthesized by incorporating the heavy d10 cation, Hg2+ , and the halide anion, Cl- . The noncentrosymmetric structure of I results from two unique attributes: large asymmetric secondary building units produced by direct covalent coordination of melamine to Hg2+ and a small dihedral angle between melamine molecules. The former makes inorganic modules locally acentric, while the latter prevents planar organic groups from forming deleterious antiparallel arrangement. The unique coordination in I results in an enlarged band gap of 4.40 eV. Due to the large polarizability of the heavy Hg2+ cation and the π-conjugated system of melamine, I exhibits a strong second-harmonic generation efficiency of 5 × KH2 PO4 , larger than any reported melamine-based nonlinear optical materials to date. Density functional theory calculations indicate that I possesses giant optical anisotropy, with a birefringence of 0.246@1064 nm.

Abstract
Two novel mixed-alkali-metal selenate nonlinear-optical (NLO) crystals, Na3Li(H2O)3(SeO4)2·3H2O (I) and CsLi3(H2O)(SeO4)2 (II), have been successfully synthesized by an aqueous solution evaporation method. Both compounds feature the unique layers constructed of the same functional moieties including SeO4 and LiO4 tetrahedra: [Li(H2O)3(SeO4)2·3H2O]∞3- layers in I and [Li3(H2O)(SeO4)2]∞- layers in II. The titled compounds display wide optical band gaps of 5.62 and 5.66 eV, respectively, according to the UV-vis spectra. Interestingly, they exhibit significantly different second-order nonlinear coefficients (0.34 × KDP and 0.70 × KDP, respectively). Detailed dipole moment calculations manifest that the large disparity can be attributed to the difference in the dipole moment of the crystallographically independent SeO4 and LiO4 groups. This work confirms that alkali-metal selenate system is an excellent candidate for short-wave ultraviolet NLO materials.

Abstract
Inorganic adducts are an emerging class of infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. However, although the reported NLO adducts have sufficient birefringences and significant laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDTs), they commonly suffer from weak second harmonic generation (SHG) responses. In this work, a series of polar phosphorus chalcogenide cage molecules with strong hyperpolarizabilities were theoretically screened out to enhance the SHG responses of adducts. Accordingly, (CuI)3 (P4 S4 ), (CuI)3 (P4 Se4 ), (CuBr)7 (P4 S3 )3 and (CuBr)7 (P4 Se3 )3 with target polar cage molecules were successfully synthesized. As expected, they exhibit enhanced SHG responses while keeping moderate birefringences and high LIDTs. Notably, (CuBr)7 (P4 Se3 )3 possesses the largest SHG response (3.5×AGS@2.05 μm) among the known inorganic NLO adducts. Our study confirms that introducing NLO-active cage molecules into adducts is an efficient strategy for high-performance NLO materials.

Abstract
It is a great challenge to develop UV nonlinear optical (NLO) material due to the demanding conditions of strong second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity and wide band gap. The first ultraviolet NLO selenite material, Y3 F(SeO3 )4 , has been obtained by control of the fluorine content in a centrosymmetric CaYF(SeO3 )2 . The two new compounds represent similar 3D structures composed of 3D yttrium open frameworks strengthened by selenite groups. CaYF(SeO3 )2 has a large birefringence (0.138@532 nm and 0.127@1064 nm) and a wide optical band gap (5.06 eV). The non-centrosymmetric Y3 F(SeO3 )4 can exhibit strong SHG intensity (5.5×KDP@1064 nm), wide band gap (5.03 eV), short UV cut-off edge (204 nm) and high thermal stability (690 °C). So, Y3 F(SeO3 )4 is a new UV NLO material with excellent comprehensive properties. Our work shows that it is an effective method to develop new UV NLO selenite material by fluorination control of the centrosymmetric compounds.

Abstract
Enthusiasm for the exploration of nonlinear alkali metal borates remains high. Focusing on the Li-B-O-X (X = Cl and Br) system, two examples of noncentrosymmetric borates, Li3B8O13Cl and Li3B8O13Br, were obtained using a high-temperature solution method under vacuum conditions. Structurally, the Li3B8O13X crystals exhibit two independent alternately arranged three-dimensional B-O network structures formed by the basic building block unit B8O16. The performance measurements demonstrate their short ultraviolet cutoff edges. The theoretical calculation indicates that the BO3 units dominate the contribution to their large optical anisotropy with the birefringence, 0.094 and 0.088@1064 nm for Li3B8O13Cl and Li3B8O13Br, respectively.

Abstract
The accurate evaluation of nonlinear optical (NLO) coefficient, the main parameter affecting light conversion efficiency, plays a crucial role in the development of NLO materials. The Kurtz-Perry powder technique can evaluate second-harmonic generation (SHG) intensity in pristine powder form, saving a significant amount of time and energy in the preliminary screening of materials. However, the Kurtz-Perry method has recently been subject to some controversy due to the limitations of the Kurtz-Perry theory and the oversimplified experimental operation. Therefore, it is very meaningful to revisit and develop the Kurtz-Perry technique. In this work, on the basis of introducing the light scattering effect into the original Kurtz-Perry theory, the theoretical expression of second-harmonic generation intensity with respect to band gap and refractive index are analyzed. In addition, the reference-dependent SHG measurements were carried out on polycrystalline LiB3O5 (LBO), AgGaQ2 (Q = S, Se), BaGa4Q7 (Q = S, Se), and ZnGeP2 (ZGP), and the results of SHG response emphasize the importance of using appropriate references to the Kurtz-Perry method. In order to obtain reliable values of nonlinear coefficients, two criteria for selecting a reference compound were proposed: (1) it should possess a band gap close to that of the sample to be measured and (2) it should possess a refractive index close to that of the sample to be measured. This work might shed light on improvements in accuracy that can be made for effective NLO coefficients obtained using the Kurtz-Perry method.

Abstract
Two new borate halides, Sn3B3O7X (X = Cl and Br), were successfully synthesized via introducing Sn2+ with lone-pair and halogen into borate. Interestingly, halogen-induced variable coordination modes of Sn2+ and anion frameworks make them crystallize in different space groups, from noncentrosymmetric (Pna21) to centrosymmetric (Pbca). Sn3B3O7Cl possesses an SHG response of about 0.5 times that of KDP, while Sn3B3O7Br exhibits a large birefringence (0.123@1064 nm). The theoretical calculations were performed to elucidate the structure-property relationships.

Abstract
Birefringent materials are key components to control the light polarization in laser science and technology as well as optical communication. However, the performance of current commercial birefringent materials has been limited by the magnitude of birefringence, optical transparency range, or the attainability of large-scale single crystals. To explore new birefringent materials, we strategically incorporated a lone pair cation (Se4+) with large optical anisotropy, an alkali metal, and halogen ions (Rb+ and Cl-) with superior UV transparent capacity; thus a new compound, RbCl·(H2SeO3)2, was successfully discovered with the aid of the facile hydrothermal method. Interestingly, Rb-Cl chains locate in the [H2SeO3]∞ skeleton, which makes RbCl·(H2SeO3)2 a salt-inclusion selenite. Millimeter-sized single crystals (up to 4 × 2 × 1 mm3) were obtained, and the transmittance spectrum revealed that its UV cut-off edge can be as low as 230 nm. In addition, the calculated birefringence of RbCl·(H2SeO3)2 is 0.14 at 589 nm that is similar to the birefringent value of famous α-BaB2O4. Wide UV transparency, large birefringence, and feasible crystal growth make RbCl·(H2SeO3)2 a new member of birefringent materials for UV light applications.

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal, which simultaneously exhibits strong second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response and desired optical anisotropy, is a core optical material accessible to the modern optoelectronics. Accompanied by strong SHG effect in a NLO crystal, a contradictory problem of overlarge birefringence is ignored, leading to low frequency doubling efficiency and poor beam quality. Herein, a series of rare earth cyanurates RE5 (C3 N3 O3 )(OH)12 (RE=Y, Yb, Lu) were successfully characterized by 3D electron diffraction technique. Based on a "three birds with one stone" strategy, they enable the simultaneous fulfillment of strong SHG responses (2.5-4.2× KH2 PO4 ), short UV cutoff (ca. 220 nm) and applicable birefringence (ca. 0.15 at 800 nm) by the introduction of rare earth coordination control of π-conjugated (C3 N3 O3 )3- anions. These findings provide high-performance short-wavelength NLO materials and highlight the exploration of cyanurates as a new research area.

Abstract
The design of new materials with special performances is still a great challenge, especially for the deep-ultraviolet nonlinear optical materials in which it is difficult to balance large bandgaps and strong second harmonic generation responses due to their inverse relationship. Cation variation not only influences the whole structure frameworks but also directly participates in the formation of electronic structures, both of which could lead to the uncontrollability of the properties of the designed materials. Here, a novel approach, aiming at purposeful and foreseeable material designs, is proposed to characterize the role of cations. By the verification of several series of borates, the influences of cation variation on property changes are explored systematically. Accordingly, a feasible strategy of designing deep-ultraviolet nonlinear optical materials by substituting barium for lead has been concluded, which could obviously blue-shift the ultraviolet cutoff edge and maintain the relatively strong second harmonic generation response (more than 2 times of KH2PO4), achieving the property optimization, and especially works efficiently in fluorooxoborates. The property optimization design strategy and the cation characterization method are not only helpful in exploring nonlinear optical materials but also enlightening in material design and selection.

Abstract
Exploration of nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals that are competent in generating short-wavelength ultraviolet (UV, λ ≤ 266 nm, and even deep-UV, λ ≤ 200 nm) coherent light output by direct second harmonic generation (SHG) remains a formidable challenge. Herein, four UV/deep-UV NLO crystals, M2B4SO10 (M = K, Rb, and Cs) and Rb3B11PO19F3, were successfully synthesized by evolving the KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF) structure into mixed-anionic borosulfate and fluoroborophosphate systems. They display functional [B4SO10]∞ or [B11PO19F3]∞ KBBF-type layers that are composed of [BO3], [BO4], and [SO4] groups or [BO3], [BO4], [BO3F], and [PO4] groups, respectively. Experimental characterization and numerical computation results indicate that these crystals possess exceptional NLO performance, including large SHG responses (0.9-1.7 × KDP at 1064 nm and 0.1-0.3 × β-BBO at 532 nm) and adequate birefringence to fulfill the SHG phase-matching (PM) condition at 266 nm. In particular, the shortest type-I PM wavelength (λPM) of Rb3B11PO19F3 reaches 180 nm, which implies that Rb3B11PO19F3 can become a prospective deep-UV NLO crystal. In addition, single crystals of K2B4SO10, Rb2B4SO10, and Cs2B4SO10 are easily obtained by the high-temperature solution approach. This work will facilitate the discovery of short-wavelength PM NLO crystals by using the KBBF structure as the template.

Abstract
Polarization modulation of deep-UV light is of significance to current technologies, and to this end, the birefringent crystal has emerged as an invaluable material as it allows for effective light modulation. Herein, a double-modification strategy driven by F and OH anions that makes double effects towards the critical property enhancement of deep-UV birefringent crystals is proposed. This leads to a new hydroxyborate (NH4 )4 [B12 O16 F4 (OH)4 ] with giant cluster as a deep-UV birefringent crystal with large birefringence (Δnexp. =0.12@546.1 nm). This birefringence is a record among inorganic hydroxyborates with experimentally measured birefringence. Structural analysis shows that the near-plane arrangement of [B12 O16 F4 (OH)4 ] cluster is responsible for the large optical anisotropy. Theoretical calculations indicate that its π-conjugated [BO3 ] and [BO2 OH] units are the main source of this large optical anisotropy.

Abstract
Two mixed alkali-metal borates, K0.5Li[B6O10]·0.5H3O (1) and [(μ5-OH)@(Na4Li)]0.5[B6O10]·0.5B(OH)3 (2), have been prepared under solvothermal conditions. Both of them are obtained in the same synthetic system and contain a B6O138- cluster as the structural-building unit (SBU) but exhibit quite different structural features. 1 is a centric three-dimensional (3D) oxoboron (B-O) framework, where templated mixed K+ and Li+ cations occupied the cavities of the structure. 2 crystallizes in an acentric space group under the templating effect of a unique acentric alkali-metal cluster [(μ5-OH)@(Na4Li)]4+. The SBU of 2 is also the B6O138- cluster, which acts as six-connected nodes linked together to form a 3D B-O framework, showing different characters from 1 because of two types of templates; the acentric [(μ5-OH)@(Na4Li)]4+ clusters and the electroneutral B (OH)3 groups fill in two different cages in the framework and further connect each other via Na-O-B bonds to build a novel two-dimensional (2D) wavy bricklike network, resulting in a 3D B-O framework interpenetrated by a 2D [(μ5-OH)@(Na4Li)]-B(OH)3 network. As a crystal material with an acentric space group, 2 shows a good second harmonic generation response of about 2.8 times that of KDP (KH2PO4) and has a cutoff edge below 190 nm, which suggests that 2 is a potential deep-UV NLO material.

Abstract
Discovery of new efficient nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with large second-order nonlinearity for the short-wave ultraviolet spectral region (λPM ≤266 nm, PM=phase-matching) is still very challenging. Herein, a new beryllium-free borate CaZn2 (BO3 )2 with Sr2 Be2 B2 O7 (SBBO) double-layered like configuration was rationally designed, which not only preserves the structural merits but also eliminates the limitations of the SBBO crystal. CaZn2 (BO3 )2 shows a large PM second harmonic generation (SHG) reponse of 3.8×KDP, which is 38 times higher than that of its barium analogue. This enhancement mainly originates from the 1 [Zn2 O6 ]∞ polar chains with a large net dipole moment and [BO3 ] units with a high NLO active density. Our findings show the great significance of the [ZnO4 ] tetrahedra introduced strategy to design beryllium-free SBBO-type NLO crystals and also verify the feasibility of using simple non-isomorphic substitution to induce giant second-order nonlinearity enhancement.

Abstract
A new inorganic-organic hybrid zinc borate was prepared under hydrothermal conditions. This compound is the first KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF) derivative with zinc borate layers linked by mononegatively charged amino acids. Notably, it exhibits a relatively large second-harmonic-generation response of about 2.0 times that of KBBF and a moderate birefringence for phase matching in the UV region. The enhanced interlayer interaction was evaluated by theoretical calculations based on density functional theory.

Abstract
In crystal engineering, it is an effective and controllable approach to modify the electronic band structure and optimize crystal performances using rational chemical cosubstitution in a classic structure model. Herein, the noncentrosymmetric (NCS) rare-earth borate fluoride La2B5O9F3 was designed and synthesized successfully based on the extraordinarily stable M2B5O9X (M = Ca, Sr, Ba, Sn, Pb, and Eu; X = Cl, Br, and I) template. Moreover, all 70 rare-earth borate halides were discussed, and the ratio of crystallization in NCS group is only 17.1%, much lower than 34.9% in all anhydrous borates. Benefiting from the substitution of [MOX] by [LaOF] polyhedra with improved hyperpolarizability and anisotropy of polarizability, compared with the M2B5O9X family, La2B5O9F3 with optimized band structure exhibits the suitable SHG response (1.2 × KH2PO4 (KDP) @ 1064 nm), large band gap (6.58 eV), and moderate birefringence, which well achieves the optimal balance among the three critical parameters mentioned above for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications in the short-wavelength region. This work expands the research field of NLO materials to rare-earth borate fluorides and can lead to a better understanding of the role of rare-earth metal cations.

Abstract
Second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials have drawn enormous academic and technological attention attributable to their indispensable role in laser frequency conversion and other greatly facilitated applications. The exploration of new NLO materials with high performances thus has long been an intriguing research field for chemists and material scientists. However, an ideal NLO material should simultaneously satisfy quite a few fundamental yet rigorous criteria including a noncentrosymmetric structure, large NLO coefficients, desired transparent range, large birefringence, high laser damage threshold, and availability of a large-size single crystal. Therefore, the identification of promising compound systems, targeted design, and experience-based syntheses are crucial to discover novel NLO materials working in the spectral region of interest. As an important family of mixed-anion compounds, versatile metal oxyhalides containing metal-centered oxyhalide functional units ([MO m X n ] (X = F, Cl, Br, and I)) are becoming a marvelous branch for interesting NLO materials. Especially, when the central metals are d0/d10 transition metals or heavy post-transition metals, a number of novel NLO materials with superior functionalities are expected. Our thorough review on the recent achievements of metal oxyhalides for NLO materials are divided into the fast-growing NLO metal oxyhalides with single type halogen anions and the newly identified NLO metal oxyhalides with mixed halogen anions. Here we mainly focus on the design strategy, structural chemistry, NLO-related properties, and structure-property correlation of the metal oxyhalides with relatively large NLO responses. We hope this review can provide an insight on the rational design and future development of emerging metal oxyhalides for NLO and other applications.

Abstract
Chirality is an important concept in chemistry revealing intriguing optical properties such as circular dichroism (CD), circularly polarized luminescence (CPL), etc. As one of the non-centrosymmetric (NCS) classes, chiral materials with extended structures may exhibit unique nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, such as second-harmonic generation (SHG). In this Concept article, a series of recently discovered NCS coordination polymers (CPs) from use of carefully designed chiral organic ligands are reviewed. Combining several metal cations such as lanthanides, lead, zinc, and cadmium with rigid chiral ligands has resulted in interesting CPs with both polar and nonpolar structures. Detailed structures, SHG properties, and structure-property relationships are provided. The importance of hyperpolarizability formed by intermolecular hydrogen boding interactions to SHG is emphasized.
