Abstract
With the continuous development of laser technology and the increasing demand for lasers of different frequencies in the infrared (IR) spectrum, research on infrared nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals has garnered growing attention. Currently, the three main commercially available types of borate materials each have their drawbacks, which limit their applications in various areas. Rare-earth (RE)-based chalcogenide compounds, characterized by the unique f-electron configuration, strong positive charges, and high coordination numbers of RE cations, often exhibit distinctive optical responses. In the field of IR-NLO crystals, they have a research history spanning several decades, with increasing interest. However, there is currently no comprehensive review summarizing and analyzing these promising compounds. In this review, we categorize 85 representative examples out of more than 400 non-centrosymmetric (NCS) compounds into four classes based on the connection of different asymmetric building motifs: (1) RE-based chalcogenides containing tetrahedral motifs; (2) RE-based chalcogenides containing lone-pair-electron motifs; (3) RE-based chalcogenides containing [BS3] and [P2Q6] motifs; and (4) RE-based chalcohalides and oxychalcogenides. We provide detailed discussions on their synthesis methods, structures, optical properties, and structure-performance relationships. Finally, we present several favorable suggestions to further explore RE-based chalcogenide compounds. These suggestions aim to approach these compounds from a new perspective in the field of structural chemistry and potentially uncover hidden treasures within the extensive accumulation of previous research.

Abstract
Developing high-performance infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials is urgent but challenging due to the competition between NLO coefficient and bandgap in one compound. Herein, by coupling NLO-active [BS3] planar units and halide-centered polycations, six new metal thioborate halides ABa3B2S6X (A = Rb, Cs; X = Cl, Br, I) composed of zero-dimensional [XBamRbn/Csn] polycations and [BS3] units, belonging to a newA I B 3 II C 2 III Q 6 VI X VII ${\mathrm{A}}^{\mathrm{I}}{\mathrm{B}}_{3}^{\mathrm{II}}{\mathrm{C}}_{2}^{\mathrm{III}}{\mathrm{Q}}_{6}^{\mathrm{VI}}{\mathrm{X}}^{\mathrm{VII}}$ family, are rationally designed and fabricated. The compounds show an interesting structural transition from Pbcn (ABa3B2S6Cl) to Cmc21 (ABa3B2S6Br and ABa3B2S6I) driven by the clamping effect of polycationic frameworks. ABa3B2S6Br and ABa3B2S6I are the first series metal thioborate halide IR NLO materials, and the introduction of [BS3] unit effectively widens the bandgap of planar unit-constructed chalcogenides. ABa3B2S6Br and ABa3B2S6I, exhibiting wide bandgaps (3.55-3.60 eV), high laser-induced damage thresholds (≈ 6 × AgGaS2), and strong SHG effects (0.5-0.6 × AgGaS2) with phase-matching behaviors, are the promising IR NLO candidates for high-power laser applications. The results enrich the chemical and structural diversity of boron chemistry and give some insights into the design of new IR NLO materials with planar units.

Abstract
Exploration of novel nonlinear optical (NLO) chalcogenides with high laser-induced damage thresholds (LIDT) is critical for mid-infrared (mid-IR) solid-state laser applications. High lattice thermal conductivity (κL ) is crucial to increasing LIDT yet often neglected in the search for NLO crystals due to lack of accurate κL data. A machine learning (ML) approach to predict κL for over 6000 chalcogenides is hereby proposed. Combining ML-generated κL data and first-principles calculation, a high-throughput screening route is initiated, and ten new potential mid-IR NLO chalcogenides with optimal bandgap, NLO coefficients, and thermal conductivity are discovered, in which Li2 SiS3 and AlZnGaS4 are highlighted. Big-data analysis on structural chemistry proves that the chalcogenides having dense and simple lattice structures with low anisotropy, light atoms, and strong covalent bonds are likely to possess higher κL . The four-coordinated motifs in which central cations show the bond valence sum of +2 to +3 and are from IIIA, IVA, VA, and IIB groups, such as those in diamond-like defect-chalcopyrite chalcogenides, are preferred to fulfill the desired structural chemistry conditions for balanced NLO and thermal properties. This work provides not only an efficient strategy but also interpretable research directions in the search for NLO crystals with high thermal conductivity.

Abstract
Fluorooxoborates are promising yet largely untapped crystal materials for linear and nonlinear optical applications. The introduction of a strong electronegative F atom into an oxyboron anionic group offers a virtually unlimited chance for structural engineering and ultimately purposeful tuning of the macroscopic optical properties of the crystal. Herein, a new mixed alkali/alkaline-earth fluorooxoborate, Na2BaB12O18F4, was synthesized in a closed system. Na2BaB12O18F4 features a [B6O11F2] fundamental building unit (FBB), which polymerizes into two new (first example) independent interpenetrating three-dimensional (3D) B-O/F anionic networks constructed entirely from BO3 and BO3F units. Based on optical characterizations and the first-principles calculations, Na2BaB12O18F4 exhibits a moderate birefringence (0.054 @ 1064 nm) and a short ultraviolet (UV) cutoff edge (below 190 nm). The successful synthesis and characterization of Na2BaB12O18F4 may speed up the subsequent discovery of other mixed alkali/alkaline-earth metal fluorooxoborates.

Abstract
Infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals are the major materials to widen the output range of solid-state lasers to mid-infrared regions, but they are still inadequate for application due to the difficulties in balancing the large band gaps and strong NLO response. The diamond-like structure is a potential structural template to explore IR NLO materials. Herein, a computational workflow is proposed for exploring compounds with diamond-like structures, a series of LiMgGaSe3 structures were predicted successfully through this workflow, and LiMgGaSe3-I-III exhibited good optical performances in a large band gap (2.75-2.92 eV), strong SHG response (1.2-1.3 × AGS), and suitable birefringence (0.0470-0.0783 at 1064 nm). The in-depth mechanism explorations strongly demonstrate that the synergistic effect of alkaline earth metal tetrahedral [MgSe4] and [GaSe4] units is the main origin of large SHG response. The foregoing results suggest that our workflow can accelerate the discovery of new mid-IR NLO materials with diamond-like structures.

Abstract
Deep-ultraviolet (DUV, wavelength λ < 200 nm) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal is the core component of frequency conversion to generate DUV laser, which plays an important role in cutting-edge laser technology and fundamental science. Significant progress has been made in both experimental exploration and theoretical design in the field of DUV NLO crystals over the past three decades. In-depth insight into "structure-property correlations", in particular, allows for rigorous and precise identification of DUV NLO crystals. In this article, we reviewed the current experimental and theoretical research progress while elucidating the core concepts and stringent criteria of qualified DUV phase-matched second-harmonic generation crystals. We also discussed the development of the DUV NLO "structure-property correlations" from first principles and how it has sparked interest in related materials, as well as future directions for obtaining potential DUV NLO crystals.

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

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

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals are widely applied in information technology, micro-manufacturing and medical treatment. Herein, a new lead mixed halide with strong second-harmonic generation (SHG) response, Cs3 Pb2 (CH3 COO)2 Br3 I2 , has been designed and rationally synthesized. Cs3 Pb2 (CH3 COO)2 Br3 I2 represents the rare NLO crystal featuring that three different anions (I- , Br- and O2- ) simultaneously coordinate the Pb(II) atom to form a severely distorted [PbBr2 I2 O2 ] polyhedron with a large polarizability. Remarkably, Cs3 Pb2 (CH3 COO)2 Br3 I2 not only exhibits a very strong phase-matching SHG response of 9×KH2 PO4 (KDP), but also possesses a large birefringence (0.27@1064 nm) and high laser damage threshold (LDT). The strong SHG effect of Cs3 Pb2 (CH3 COO)2 Br3 I2 mainly originates from the oriented arrangement of [Pb2 Br3 I2 ] chains. This study points out an effective strategy to develop new NLO crystals with strong SHG response.

Abstract
Reactions of (NH4 )2 WS4 with CuCN, CuCN/1,2-bis(4-pyridyl)propane (bppa) or [Cu(MeCN)4 ]PF6 /bppa under different reaction conditions afforded a set of two- or three-dimensional W/Cu/S cluster-based coordination polymers including {[Et4 N]2 [WS4 Cu4 (μ-CN)2 (μ-I)2 ]}n (1), [WS4 Cu4 (μ-CN)2 (bppa)2 ]n (2) and {[WS4 Cu4 (bppa)4 ](PF6 )2 }n (3), respectively. Compound 2 can be readily formed from reaction of 1 with bppa under solvothermal conditions. Compounds 1 and 2 feature two-dimensional networks with a "sql" topology, while 3 possesses a two-fold interpenetrated three-dimensional net with a rare "reo" topology. Compounds 1-3 in DMF exhibited different third-order nonlinear optical responses, and they all showed a reverse saturable absorption while 2 held a strong self-focusing effect.

Abstract
Van der Waals (vdW) deep-UV (DUV) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystal is an important material system recently developed. Herein, we review its concept and original intention, and then summarized the discovery process of related materials, including the role of A-site cations and the resulting two-/one-dimensional vdW DUV NLO systems. Finally, we evaluate the practical DUV NLO performance and prospected the opportunities and challenges.

Abstract
Van-der-Waals (vdW) deep-ultraviolet (DUV) nonlinear-optical (NLO) materials hold great potential to extend DUV NLO applications to two dimensions, but they are rare in nature. In this study, we propose a design principle to realize vdW DUV NLO materials via structural evolution from the non-vdW (BO3 )-(BeO3 F) layers in KBe2 BO3 F2 (KBBF) to the vdW (BO3 )-(BeO4 H) layers in berborite Be2 BO5 H3 (BBH) and the vdW (BO4 )-(BeO4 ) layers in beryllium metaborate BeB2 O4 (BEBO). Based on first-principles calculations, the fundamental NLO properties of BBH and BEBO demonstrate that a balanced DUV NLO performance can be achieved in these two systems. Importantly, BBH, a layered material existing in nature, can achieve an available DUV phase-matched output with strong second harmonic generation (SHG) for 177.3/193.7 nm DUV lasers, which is almost identical to that of KBBF. Remarkably, BEBO shows an excellent DUV SHG capacity and an even shorter phase-matching wavelength than KBBF. Therefore, the newly discovered vdW BBH and BEBO, once verified by experiments, could provide an ideal platform to study DUV NLO effects in three dimensions and two dimensions.
