Abstract
Herein, the first F-containing iodate-phosphate, namely Ba2Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4), was prepared via a hydrothermal reaction, in which HPF6 (70 wt% solution in water) was used as the source of both fluoride and phosphate anions for the first time. Ba2Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4) features an unprecedented 1D [Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4)]4- helix chain, composed of a 1D Ga(1)(IO3)O4F chain via the bridging of 0D Ga(2)(PO4)F5. The UV-Vis spectrum shows that Ba2Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4) has a wide bandgap with a short-UV absorption edge (4.35 eV; 253 nm). Birefringence measurement under a polarizing microscope shows that Ba2Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4) displays a moderate birefringence of 0.072@550 nm, which is consistent with the value (0.070@550 nm) obtained by DFT calculations, indicating that Ba2Ga2F6(IO3)(PO4) has potential applications as a short-UV birefringent material. This study highlights the crucial role played by the incorporation of specific functional groups into compounds, shedding light on their contribution to promising inorganic functional materials.

Abstract
Exploring materials that balance the second harmonic generation (SHG) effect and laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) is the frontier of nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal research at present. In this work, the NLO property of anhydrous aluminum iodate is extensively explored and discussed first. It exhibits a strong SHG intensity of 18.3 × KH2PO4 (KDP) and a high-powder LIDT of 1.4 × KDP at 1064 nm. Combining experimental and theoretical studies at the atomic level and electronic levels, it is found that the cations in the structure are replaced by cations with small radius and high valence, enabling the production of materials with large SHG responses. Unbonded and antibonding orbitals play a crucial positive role in the SHG response of the structure, whereas bonding orbitals produce a large negative contribution. This provides a scarce example of materials in which bonding orbitals make significant negative contributions.

Abstract
Exploring nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with short ultraviolet cutoff edges are significant for developing an all-solid-state laser. Here, a noncentrosymmetric zinc fluoride hydrate, ZnF2(H2O)4, was synthesized by a hydrothermal method. It crystallizes in the polar space group of Pca21. The compound consists of the central Zn2+ combined with F- and coordination water to form the [ZnF2(H2O)4] octahedra, and each octahedron is isolated from each other to form a 0-dimensional structure. As an acentric compound, ZnF2(H2O)4 shows a phase-matchable second-harmonic-generation (SHG) activity with an intensity about 0.5 times that of KH2PO4. More attractively, it also shows a short ultraviolet cutoff edge below 200 nm, which is rare in reported halide hydrate systems. Interestingly, from ZnF2 to ZnF2(H2O)4, the partial substitution of the coordinated F atoms by H2O molecules leads to the structural transformation from centric to acentric with SHG activity off to on. Structural analyses, NLO activity, and theoretical calculations are presented in this work.

Abstract
Exploring feasible tactics to induce the formation of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) structures, especially from centrosymmetric (CS) structures, is essential for the development of nonlinear optical crystals with more potential. An NCS alkali metal-containing molybdenum iodate hydrate, namely, NaMoO3(IO3)(H2O), was designed based on the CS matrix NaMoO3(IO3) via introducing a water molecule into the structure. The introduction of one crystalline water molecule results in the rearrangement of Λ-shaped cis-[MoO4(IO3)2] units, and the proper array of the cis-[MoO4(IO3)2] units in NaMoO3(IO3)(H2O) results in its strong SHG response of 4.6 × KH2PO4. In addition, NaMoO3(IO3)(H2O) exhibits a wider optical bandgap of 3.44 eV and a larger birefringence of 0.231 than its matrix. Furthermore, the framework of NaMoO3(IO3)(H2O) is highly similar to that of α-KMoO3(IO3), with water molecules assisting Na+ cations in occupying the position of K+. However, due to the extra hydrogen bond of water molecules, the [MoO3(IO3)]∞ layers in NaMoO3(IO3)(H2O) retain a parallel-stacking arrangement, different from the antiparallel arrangement of layers in α-KMoO3(IO3) with a centric structure. This study confirms the feasibility of applying a water molecule to adjust the orientation of basic building block units to assemble an NCS structure based on CS crystals.

Abstract
Introducing F- anions or substituting F- anions with IO3- groups has been proven to be ideal strategies for designing novel noncentrosymmetric (NCS) and polar materials, yet systematic investigation into the effect of F- anions or the substitution of IO3- for F- anions on structures and properties remains rarely explored. Herein, two new gallium iodates, NaGa(IO3)2F2 (1) and NaGa(IO3)4 (2), were successfully designed and synthesized based on NaGa(IO3)3F by introducing more F- anions and replacing F- anions with IO3 groups, respectively. Structurally, in compound 1, the adjacent [GaF3(IO3)3]3- polyanions are connected in an antiparallel manner, resulting in a complete cancellation of local polarity. While in compound 2, all IO3 groups in 2D [Ga(IO3)4]∞- layers are aligned, leading to large macroscopic polarization. Additionally, chemical substitution also results in a qualitative improvement in the functional properties of compound 2. It possesses strong SHG response (12 × KDP @1064 nm) and broad optical transparency, coupled with large birefringence (0.21 @1064 nm), showcasing its promise as a promising nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal. The effects of chemical substitution between F- anions and IO3- groups on the structures and properties are discussed in detail.

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals are indispensable for the solid-state lasers for their ability to expand wavelength spectral to the regions where the directing lasing is difficult or even impossible, yet the rational design of a high-performance NLO crystal remains a great challenge owing to the severe structural and properties' requirements. Herein, a new noncentrosymmetric (NCS) and polar gallium iodate, LiGa(IO3 )4 , with a novel 2D anionic layer, is successfully designed and synthesized by the aliovalent substitution strategy based on classic α-LiIO3 . The 2D [Ga(IO3 )4 ]∞ - layer in LiGa(IO3 )4 is built from the GaO6 octahedra and highly polarizable units IO3 . Compared with its parent compound, the partial replacement of A-site Li+ cation with main group Ga3+ cation facilitates LiGa(IO3 )4 to possess excellent NLO properties, including the large second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (14 × KH2 PO4 (KDP) @ 1064 nm), wide bandgap (4.25 eV), large birefringence (0.23 @ 1064 nm), and wide optical transparency from UV to mid-IR. These reveal that LiGa(IO3 )4 will be a promising NLO crystal.

Abstract
An optically anisotropic alkali-earth-metal gallium fluoroiodate, Ba2[GaF5(IO3F)] (1), was ingeniously obtained by integrating fluoride and fluoroiodate functional units under moderate hydrothermal conditions. It features a three-dimensional (3D) structure constructed by the highly polarizable fluoroiodate unit [IO3F] and the fluoride groups [GaOF5] and [BaO3Fx] (x = 6, 7). The compound is stable at temperatures up to 500 °C. With the synergistic interaction between [IO3F] and the fluoride groups, the mixed-metal fluoroiodate induces a short ultraviolet cutoff edge at about 230 nm, a medium measured birefringence of 0.068 @ 550 nm, and a wide optical transparent window (0.34-11.9 μm), indicating that 1 has potential applications as a birefringent material from near-UV to mid-infrared. Theoretical calculations prove that the optical characteristics of the compound are mainly attributed to [IO3F] and the fluoride functional groups. This work demonstrates that the presence of various specific functional groups in compounds will help to develop promising inorganic functional materials possessing good optical performance.

Abstract
In this study, we identify a novel class of second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals, non-π-conjugated piperazine (H10C4N2, PIP) metal halides, represented by two centimeter-sized, noncentrosymmetric organic-inorganic metal halides (OIMHs), namely H12C4N2CdI4 (P212121) and H11C4N2CdI3 (Cc). H12C4N2CdI4 is the first to be prepared, and its structure contains a CdI4 tetrahedron, which led to a poor NLO performance, including a weak and non-phase-matchable second harmonic generation (SHG) response of 0.5 × KH2PO4 (KDP), a small birefringence of 0.047 @1064 nm and a narrow bandgap of 3.86 eV. Moreover, H12C4N2CdI4 is regarded as the model compound, and we further obtain H11C4N2CdI3via the replacement of CdI4 with a highly polarizable CdNI3 tetrahedron, which results in a sharp enhancement of SHG response and birefringence. H11C4N2CdI3 exhibits a promising NLO performance including 6 × KDP, 4.10 eV, Δn = 0.074 @1064 nm and phase matchability, indicating that it is the first OIMH to simultaneously exhibit strong SHG response (>5 × KDP) and a wide bandgap (>4.0 eV). Our work presents a novel direction for designing high-performance NLO crystals based on organic-inorganic halides and provides important insights into the role of the hybridized tetrahedron in enhancing the SHG response and birefringence.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid nonlinear optical (NLO) materials are highly anticipated because of the integration of both merits of the organic and inorganic moieties. Herein, the 2-pyrimidinone cation (C4H5N2O)+ has been incorporated into the iodate system to form two polymorphic organic-inorganic hybrid iodates, namely, α- and β-(C4H5N2O)(IO3)·HIO3. They crystallize in different polar space groups (Ia and Pca21), and their structures feature one-dimensional (1D) chain structures composed of (C4H5N2O)+ cations, IO3- anions, and HIO3 molecules interconnected via hydrogen bonds. α- and β-(C4H5N2O) (IO3)·HIO3 exhibit strong and moderate second-harmonic-generation (SHG) responses of 6.4 and 0.9 × KH2PO4 (KDP), respectively, the same band gaps of 3.65 eV, and high powder laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) values [51 and 57 × AgGaS2 (AGS)]. The results of theoretical calculations revealed that the large SHG effect of α-(C4H5N2O)(IO3)·HIO3 originated from the IO3 and HIO3 groups. This work indicates that (C4H5N2O)+ is a potential group for designing new NLO materials with brilliant optical performances.

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
Semiconductor-based X-ray detectors with low detectable thresholds become critical in medical radiography applications. However, their performance is generally limited by intrinsic defects or unresolved issues of materials, and developing a novel scintillation semiconductor for low-dose X-ray detection is a highly urgent objective. Herein, a high-quality rare-earth iodate Tm(IO3 )3 single crystal grown through low-cost solution processing is reported with a wide bandgap of 4.1 eV and a large atomic number of 53.2. The roles of IO and TmO groups for charge transport in the Tm(IO3 )3 are revealed with the structural difference between the [101] and [ 1 ¯ 01 ] $[{\bar{1}}01]$ crystal orientations. Based on anisotropic responses of material properties and detection performances, it is found that the [ 1 ¯ 01 ${\bar{1}}01$ ] orientation, the path with fewer IO groups, achieves a high resistivity of 1.02 × 1011 Ω cm. Consequently, a single-crystal detector exhibits a low dark current and small baseline drifting due to the wide bandgap, high resistivity and less ion migration of Tm(IO3 )3 , resulting in a low detection limit of 85.2 nGyair s-1 . An excellent X-ray imaging performance with a high sensitivity of 4406.6 µC Gyair -1 cm-2 is also shown in the Tm(IO3 )3 device. These findings provide a new material design perspective for high-performance X-ray imaging applications.

The introduction of the transition metal cations with d0 electron configurations and F in the iodate systems generates a new polar compound, Ba2[WO3F(IO3)][WO3F2], which features the first example of a direct W-O-I bond in the structure. It exhibits excellent properties, including a large second harmonic generation response (∼3.5 × KH2PO4), a wide visible and mid-infrared transparency region (0.28-10.74 μm), and a moderate birefringence of 0.061@532 nm.

Abstract
The combination of d0 transition metal oxofluorides with iodate anions helps to synthesize polar crystals. Herein, a novel polar crystal, K3V2O3F4(IO3)3, which is the first metal vanadium iodate with two types of V5+-centered polyhedra (VO4F2 octahedron and VO3F2 trigonal bipyramid), has been prepared hydrothermally. It crystallizes in the polar space group of Cmc21 and its structure displays an unprecedented 0D [V2O3F4(IO3)3]3- anion, which is composed of Λ-shaped cis-[VO2F2(IO3)2]3- and [VO2F2(IO3)]2- anions interconnected via the corner-sharing of one oxo anion. The synergy gained from the VO4F2, VO3F2 and IO3 groups resulted in K3V2O3F4(IO3)3 exhibiting both a strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (1.3 × KTiOPO4) under 2050 nm laser irradiation and a large birefringence (0.158 @ 2050 nm). This study provides a facile route for designing SHG materials by assembling various vanadium oxide-fluoride motifs and iodate anions into one compound.

Abstract
A wide bandgap is an essential requirement for a nonlinear optical (NLO) material. However, it is very challenging to simultaneously engineer a wide bandgap and a strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) response, particularly in NLO materials containing second-order Jahn–Teller (SOJT) distorted units. Herein, we employ a bandgap engineering strategy that involves the dual fluorination of two different types of SOJT distorted units to realize remarkably wide bandgaps in the first examples of 5d0-transition metal (TM) fluoroiodates. Crystalline A2WO2F3(IO2F2) (A = Rb (RWOFI) and Cs (CWOFI)) exhibit the largest bandgaps yet observed in d0-TM iodates (4.42 (RWOFI) and 4.29 eV (CWOFI)), strong phase-matching SHG responses of 3.8 (RWOFI) and 3.5 (CWOFI) × KH2PO4, and wide optical transparency windows. Computational studies have shown that the excellent optical responses result from synergism involving the two fluorinated SOJT distorted units ([WO3F3]3− and [IO2F2]−). This work provides not only an efficient strategy for bandgap modulation of NLO materials, but also affords insight into the relationship between the electronic structure of the various fluorinated SOJT distorted units and the optical properties of crystalline materials. Wide bandgaps, strong SHG responses, and sufficient birefringence are observed in the first examples of 5d0-transition metal fluoroiodates, A2WO2F3(IO2F2) (A = Rb, and Cs), which were constructed by dual-fluorination-directed bandgap engineering.![]()

Abstract
Materials with multi-stabilities controllable by external stimuli are potential for high-capacity information storage and switch devices. Herein, we report the observation of pressure-driven two-step second-harmonic-generation (SHG) switching in polar BiOIO 3 for the first time. Structure analyses reveal two pressure-induced phase transitions in BiOIO 3 from the ambient noncentrosymmetric phase (SHG-high) to an intermediate noncentrosymmetric phase (SHG-intermediate) and then to a centrosymmetric phase (SHG-off). The three-state SHG switching is inspected by in-situ high-pressure powder SHG and polarization-dependent single-crystal SHG measurements. Local structure analyses based on the in-situ Raman spectra and X-ray absorption spectra reveal that the SHG switching are caused by the step-wise suppression of lone-pair electrons on the [IO 3 ] - units. The dramatic evolution of the functional units under compression also leads to subtle changes of the optical absorption edge of BiOIO 3 . Materials with switchable multiple stabilities provide a state-of-art platform for next-generation switch and information storage devices.

Abstract
Rationally designing a high-performance nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal remains a great ongoing challenge. It involves not only the design of noncentrosymmetric structures but also property optimization. In this communication, a new strategy for effectively designing the NLO crystal has been put forward, that is, using the structure-directing property of oxyfluoride anions to obtain a noncentrosymmetric and polar structure, and then by substitution of IO3 - for isovalent F- anions to further enhance the SHG response. With this strategy, a new iodate fluoride, Ba2 [MoO3 F(IO3 )](MoO3 F2 ) has been successfully designed from the Ba2 (MoO3 F2 )F2 with the cis-directing [MoO4 F2 ]4- groups. It exhibits a large SHG response (≈8×KDP), a wide transparent region (0.30-10.92 μm), a high laser-induced damage threshold (LDT) (88.53 MW cm-2 ), and a large birefringence (≈0.264@532 nm). These indicate Ba2 [MoO3 F(IO3 )](MoO3 F2 ) would be a promising NLO crystal.

Abstract
The indispensable condition for laser frequency-doubling crystal materials is that they crystallize in the noncentrosymmetric (NCS) structures. Here, ternary NCS Ba6In2S10 (1) and Ba6In2Se10 (2) (P63) were synthesized via conventional solid-state reactions. Their zero-dimensional structures feature isolated InQ4 tetrahedra and Q22- (Q = S, Se) dimers that are separated by Ba2+ counter cations. The structural relevance and differences with the centrosymmetric Ba12In4S19 and Ba12In4Se20 are analyzed in detail. Both 1 and 2 show obvious laser frequency-doubling activity, and their optical band gaps are 3.72 and 1.78 eV, respectively. This work provides a new type of IR nonlinear-optical materials.

Abstract
A new noncentrosymmetric iron-iodate-fluoride Ba2[FeF4(IO3)2]IO3 was ingeniously obtained based on the centrosymmetric Ba[FeF4(IO3)] through chemical tailoring. Ba2[FeF4(IO3)2]IO3 exhibits a strong phase-matchable second-harmonic generation effect, a large band gap, and a wide mid-infrared transparent window. The chemical tailoring design based on oxide-fluoride anions affords a feasible approach to design nonlinear optical materials.

Abstract
Birefringent crystals are very important optical materials, which are widely used in the fields of optics and communication. In this work, we reported a new iodate, NaGaI3O9F, synthesized by mild hydrothermal method. NaGaI3O9F crystallized in the monoclinic space group P21/c (No. 14) and it featured a novel ∞[Ga2(IO3F)2(IO3)4]2- layer stacked with Na+ cations located in the void maintaining charge balance. Notably, IO3- and IO3F2- anionic units appeared in the same time in the A-Ga-I-O/F (A = alkali metal) system. According to the experimental characterization and theoretical calculations, NaGaI3O9F showed a wide bandgap (4.27 eV) and large birefringence (Δnexp∼ 0.203, Δncal = 0.197 at 1064 nm), indicating its potential use as a birefringent material.

Abstract
A novel salt-inclusion fluoroiodate [GaF(H2O)][IO3F] derived from CsIO2F2 was ingeniously obtained through anisotropic polycation substitution. Because the catenulate [GaF(H2O)]2+ framework serves as a template for the favorable assembly of the polar [IO3F]2- groups and contributes to the nonlinear coefficient, [GaF(H2O)][IO3F] exhibits a greatly improved second-harmonic generation (SHG) effect of 10 times that of KH2PO4 (KDP) and a considerable band gap of 4.34 eV compared to the parent compound CsIO2F2 (3 × KDP, 4.5 eV). Particularly, to the best of our knowledge, [GaF(H2O)][IO3F] has the largest laser-induced damage threshold (LDT) of 140 × AgGgS2 of the reported iodates. All these results signify that [GaF(H2O)][IO3F] is a promising nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal. This work also proposes that anisotropic polycation substitution is an effective approach to optimize the SHG effect and develop excellent NLO materials.

Abstract
An organic-inorganic hybrid polyiodate, namely, [o-C5 H4 NHOH]2 [I7 O18 (OH)]⋅3 H2 O (I), featuring a novel branched polyiodate chain has been obtained by evaporation method. [o-C5 H4 NHOH]2 [I7 O18 (OH)]⋅3 H2 O (I) crystalizes in the polar space group Ia and features an [I7 O18 (OH)] ∞ 2 - branched polyiodate chain in which [I3 O9 ]3- trimers are grafted on the same side of the one-dimensional (1D) chain based on [I4 O11 (OH)]3- tetramers. The asymmetric organic amine groups are beneficial to the polymerization of iodate groups and inducing the formation of the non-centrosymmetric (NCS) structure. Compound I exhibits a rather large Second-Harmonic- Generation (SHG) signal of 8.5×KH2 PO4 (KDP) upon 1064 nm laser radiation, a moderate band gap of 3.90 eV and a high laser-induced-damage-threshold (LIDT) of 182.34 MW cm-2 , hence it is a promising new SHG material. The relationship between the structures of the organic amine groups and the overall structures has been also analyzed.

Abstract
ConspectusSecond-harmonic-generation (SHG) causes the frequency doubling of light, which is very useful for generating high-energy lasers with specific wavelengths. Noncentrosymmetry (NCS) is the first requirement for an SHG process because the SHG coefficient is zero (χ2 = 0) in all centrosymmetric structures. At this stage, developing novel NCS crystals is a crucial scientific topic. Assembling polar units in an addictive fashion can facilely form NCS crystals with outstanding SHG performance. In this way, our group has obtained many different NCS crystals with extremely large SHG intensities (>5 × KDP or 1 × KTP). In this Account, we first provide a brief review of the development of SHG materials and concisely highlight the features of the excellent SHG materials. Then, we present four facile and rational molecular design strategies: (1) Traditional BO33--based crystals feature short absorption edges but usually suffer from relatively weak SHG performance (<5 × KDP). The combination of two types of pure π-conjugated anions (BO33- and NO3-) in a parallel fashion in the same compound has afforded a metal borate nitrate with a strong SHG effect. (2) To overcome the problems of the weak SHG effect and small birefringence in the less anisotropic QO4-based compounds, highly polarizable cations such as Hg2+ and Bi3+ are introduced into these systems, which greatly enhances both SHG effects and birefringence. (3) Iodate anions can be condensed into polynuclear iodate anions with a higher density of I5+ per unit cell, hence polyiodate anions can serve as excellent SHG-active groups. We developed a novel synthesis method for hydrothermal reactions under a phosphoric acid medium and obtained a series of metal polyiodates with strong SHG effects. In addition, as the number of iodate groups increases, the structural configuration of the polyiodate anion changes from linear to bent. (4) We introduce the concept of aliovalent substitution which features site-to-site atomic displacement at the structural level. Such aliovalent substitution led to new materials that have the same chemical stoichiometries or structural features as their parent compounds. Thus, aliovalent substitution can provide more experimental opportunities and afford new high-performance SHG materials. The introduction of a fluoride anion and the replacement of metal cations in the MO6 octahedron can result in new metal iodates with balanced properties including a large SHG effect, a wide band gap, and a high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) value. Finally, we briefly discuss several problems associated with the studies of SHG materials and give some prospects for SHG materials in the future.

Abstract
An open-frame aluminophosphate, K[(Zn0.5Al0.5)2P2O8] (KZAPO), was rationally designed by a substitution design strategy and synthesized by a high-temperature molten salt method. Compared with the parent crystal of K[ZnBP2O8], KZAPO was characterized by similar 4 × 8 × 8 networks, a comparable short-wave ultraviolet transparency and a more regular tetrahedral frame with the mixing of (ZnO4)6- and (AlO4)5- anionic groups, highlighting the multifunctional roles that anionic group mixing played in structural and property modulations. In particular, KZAPO was characterized by a high thermal stability (over 850 °C) and a congruent-melting behavior, being conducive to practical applications.

Abstract
A new 3D noncentrosymmetric mixed-metal sulfate iodate, AgBi(SO4)(IO3)2, has been designed based on a 2D iodate of AgBi(IO3)4via the aliovalent substitution of [IO3]- groups by [SO4]2- groups. Enhancement of the second harmonic generation response (3.0 × KDP to 3.9 × KDP) has been achieved while retaining a favorable NLO framework. This is a novel strategy to upgrade structural dimensions.

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) materials have critically important applications in advanced laser technologies. However, achieving a good balance between the mutual competing NLO properties and band gap within one molecular structure remains a great challenge. In this study, two alkaline earth metal fluorinated molybdenum oxide selenite/tellurite, Ba(MoO2F)2(XO3)2 [X = Se (BMFS) and Te (BMFT)], were synthesized through a facile unary substitution: BMFS was obtained by partial substitution of oxygen atoms with highly electronegative fluorine in the parent compound BaMo2O5(SeO3)2 (BMS), while BMFT was achieved by further replacing lone-pair Se4+ cations in BMFS with heavier Te4+ cations in the same main group. By partially replacing oxygen with fluorine, BMFS shows a broadened band gap and enhanced second harmonic generation (SHG) response compared to BMS owing to the high electronegativity of fluorine anions and the favorable orientation and alignment of NLO-active [MoO5F]5- and [SeO3]2- groups, which is relatively rare for unary anion substitution. BMFS and BMFT are isostructural and both belong to the polar space group Aba2, featuring a three-dimensional (3D) double-layered framework composed of 2D [MoO4F(XO3)]∞ anionic layers interconnected by divalent barium cations. Both BMFS and BMFT exhibit good optical performance, including large SHG responses (3× and 4× KH2PO4), wide band gaps (3.30 and 3.27 eV) and optical transparency window, and high laser damage thresholds (60× and 53× AgGaS2), demonstrating their potential applications as promising second-order NLO crystals. DFT calculations have elucidated the crucial role of the [MoO5F]5- groups in the enlarged band gaps and enhanced SHG responses in BMFS and BMFT. This work proposes a feasible unary substitution strategy for synthesizing the first polar fluorinated molybdenum oxide selenite/tellurite with synchronously enlarged band gaps and SHG efficiency.

Abstract
Two mixed-metal zirconium iodates were prepared and studied as a case of chemical cosubstitution. The structure of Ag2 Zr(IO3 )6 (P21 /c) features 0D [Zr(IO3 )6 ]2- anion group and 1D [Ag(IO3 )2 ]- anionic chain, with the [Zr(IO3 )6 ]2- anion groups interconnected by Ag+ ions into 3D network; LaZr(IO3 )5 F2 (P21 /n) features 0D [Zr(IO3 )5 F2 ]3- anion group and 2D [La(IO3 )5 ]2- anionic layer, with the [Zr(IO3 )5 F2 ]3- groups interlinked by La3+ ions into 3D structure. Notably, LaZr(IO3 )5 F2 is the first zirconium iodate fluoride reported. Wide optical band gaps of 3.77 and 4.13 eV are given for Ag2 Zr(IO3 )6 and LaZr(IO3 )5 F2 , respectively. Theoretical calculations confirmed that the weak d-d transition of Zr4+ in the band structure leads to a moderate band gap of Ag2 Zr(IO3 )6 , and the introduction of F- into the zirconium iodate compound results in a large band gap of LaZr(IO3 )5 F2 . Both of the compounds are birefringent materials with birefringences of 0.064 @1064 nm and 0.082 @1064 nm, respectively.

Abstract
A new noncentrosymmetric (NCS) d0 transition-metal (TM) iodate BaTi(IO3)6·0.5H2O has been successfully synthesized by the typical hydrothermal method. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction shows that BaTi(IO3)6·0.5H2O crystallizes in the polar trigonal space group R3 (no. 146) with a = b = 11.1920(12) Å, c = 24.006(3) Å. The reported compound features zero-dimensional (0D) [Ti(IO3)6]2- clusters that are separated by Ba2+ cations and bound water in the structure. By comparing BaTi(IO3)6·0.5H2O with the centrosymmetric (CS) α- and β-BaTi(IO3)6 that were reported before, it can be found that the bound water plays an important role for the formation of NCS structure for BaTi(IO3)6·0.5H2O. In addition, based on the powder second harmonic (SHG) measurement, BaTi(IO3)6·0.5H2O can achieve type-I phase matching with a moderate SHG effect (∼1 × KDP). The source of SHG effect was analyzed by dipole moment calculation and structure comparison. UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric measurements are also presented.

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
Exploring novel functional materials via chemical substitution-oriented design is an emerging strategy. The method can be expanded to the discovery of high performance ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) solid state materials by a careful tuning of the substituted atoms. This minireview presents a brief introduction to chemical substitution-oriented design including single-site substitution, dual-site substitution, and multisite substitution. Several state-of-the-art UV NLO materials such as K3VO(O2)2CO3-type, KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF)-type, Ca5(PO4)3(OH)-type, and KTiOPO4 (KTP)-type phases successfully discovered by the chemical substitution method are discussed. A brief introduction to chemical substitution-oriented design to discover high performance ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) solid state materials is presented.![]()
