Abstract
Large birefringence is a crucial but hard-to-achieve optical parameter that is a necessity for birefringent crystals in practical applications involving modulation of the polarization of light in modern opto-electronic areas. Herein, an oxyanion polymerization strategy that involves the combination of two different types of second-order Jahn-Teller distorted units is employed to realize giant anisotropy in a covalent molybdenum tellurite. Mo(H2O)Te2O7 (MTO) exhibits a record birefringence value for an inorganic UV-transparent oxide crystalline material of 0.528 @ 546 nm, which is also significantly larger than those of all commercial birefringent crystals. MTO has a UV absorption edge of 366 nm and displays a strong powder second-harmonic generation response of 5.4 times that of KH2PO4. The dominant roles of the condensed polytellurite oxyanions [Te8O20]8- in combination with the [MoO6]6- polyhedra in achieving the giant birefringence in MTO are clarified by structural analysis and first-principles calculations. The results suggest that polymerization of polarizability-anisotropic oxyanions may unlock the promise of birefringent crystals with exceptional birefringence.

Abstract
A new borotellurite, LaTeBO5, containing the highly distorted [Te(iv)O4] group has been synthesized. Interestingly, it exhibits a wide ultraviolet transmittance range and large birefringence (0.080@1064 nm). The response electron distribution anisotropy approximation and dipole moment calculation demonstrate that the synergistic effect of the highly asymmetric [Te(iv)O4] and BO3 groups is conducive to its large birefringence.

Abstract
The first examples of bismuth fluoride selenites with d0 -TM/TeVI polyhedrons, namely, Bi4 TiO2 F4 (SeO3 )4 (1), Bi4 NbO3 F3 (SeO3 )4 (2), Bi4 TeO4 F2 (TeO3 )2 (SeO3 )2 (3), Bi2 F2 (MoO4 )(SeO3 ) (4) and Bi2 ZrO2 F2 (SeO3 )2 (5) have been successfully synthesized under hydrothermal reactions by aliovalent substitution. The five new compounds feature three different types of structures. Compounds 1-3, containing TiIV , NbV and TeVI respectively, are isostructural, exhibiting a new 3D framework composed of a 3D bismuth oxyfluoride architecture, with intersecting tunnels occupied by d0 -TM/TeVI octahedrons and selenite/tellurite groups. Interestingly, compound Bi4 TeO4 F2 (TeO3 )2 (SeO3 )2 (3) is the first structure containing SeIV and mixed-valent TeIV /TeVI cations simultaneously. Compound 4 features a new 3D structure formed by a 3D bismuth oxyfluoride network with MoO4 tetrahedrons and selenites groups imbedded in the 1D tunnels. Compound 5 displays a novel pillar-layered 3D open framework, consisting of 2D bismuth oxide layers bridged by the [ZrO2 F2 (SeO3 )2 ]6- polyanions. Theoretical calculations revealed that the five compounds displayed very strong birefringence. The birefringence values of compounds 1-3, especially, are above 0.19 at 1064 nm, which are larger than the mineral calcite. Based on the structure and property analysis, it was found that the asymmetric SeO3 groups (and TeO3 in compound 3) displayed the largest anisotropy, compared with the bismuth cations and the d0 -TM/Te polyhedra, which is beneficial to the birefringence.

Abstract
New inorganic nonlinear-optical (NLO) materials are necessary for solid-state lasers to generate coherent radiation in the ultraviolet (UV) and deep-UV regions. The purpose of this Viewpoint is to describe the chemical and physical requirements for such materials, as well as the current state of the field. In addition, the "birefringence challenge" is described and a flowchart is presented for characterizing new second-harmonic-generation materials. Finally, several new materials are suggested that may have UV and/or deep-UV NLO applications.
