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
Fluorine, as the most electronegative element, can replace the oxygen ligands of functional groups under given conditions. These fluoride groups are more or less different from the pure oxide groups in composition, symmetry, polarizability, transmittancy, etc. The rational use of these differences is expected to improve the probability of noncentrosymmetric structures and the comprehensive performance of second-harmonic-generation (SHG) materials. In this feature article, we introduce the recent developments in fluoride selenite and tellurite SHG materials together with highlighting our contributions, including Se(IV) and Te(IV) compounds with (i) d0 transition metal oxyfluoride octahedron, (ii) IIIA metal oxyfluoride octahedron, (iii) fluoride lone pair cation polyhedron, and (iv) other fluoride polyhedron. The future perspectives of fluoride selenite and tellurite SHG materials are also discussed.

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
One new combination, alkali-metal and alkaline earth-metal selenite fluoride, LiBa3Bi6(SeO3)7F11 (LBBSF) and its analogue Ba3Bi6.5(SeO3)7F10.5O0.5 (BBSF) were reported here for the first time. Unusual aliovalent cation substitution between them affected the layer thickness and made the bond strains of [SeO3] enhanced, thereby inducing greater distortions and affecting the SHG efficiencies. This work may provide thoughts for exploring new NLO materials.

Abstract
Two novel selenite oxychlorides Pb2MCu(SeO3)4Cl(H2O) (M = Fe, Ga) were hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized. They are isostructural and crystallize in the two-dimensional [MCu(SeO3)4Cl(H2O)]4- anionic layer structure mediated with hydrogen bonds and aligned between neighboring layers which assist in building the three-dimensional framework with a polar space group. Optical properties measurements revealed that the optical band gaps are 2.61 and 3.22 eV for Pb2FeCu(SeO3)4Cl(H2O) (1) and Pb2GaCu(SeO3)4Cl(H2O) (2) and the SHG responses are about 0.12 and 0.18 times that of KDP, respectively. Furthermore, 1 exhibits an interesting metamagnetic phenomenon under varied applied fields from around 1 to 4 T at 2 K, and 2 behaves with potential ferromagnetic ordering at low temperature.
