Abstract
Coplanar groups with large anisotropic polarizability are suitable as birefringence-active groups for investigating compounds with significant birefringence. In this study, the organic coplanar raw reagent, o-C5H5NO (4HP), was selected as an individual complement. Utilizing the cocrystal engineering strategy, we successfully designed two cocrystals: [LiNO3·H2O·4HP]·4HP (Li-4HP2) and [Mg(NO3)2·6H2O]·(4HP)2 (Mg-4HP), and one by-product: LiNO3·H2O·4HP (Li-4HP), which were grown using a mild aqua-solution method. The synergy of the coplanar groups of NO3 - and 4HP in the structures resulted in unexpectedly large birefringence values of 0.376-0.522@546 nm. Furthermore, the compounds exhibit large bandgaps (4.08-4.51 eV), short UV cutoff edges (275-278 nm), and favorable growth habits, suggesting their potential as short-wave UV birefringent 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.

Abstract
In this study, new hybrid birefringent crystals of (C8H7N2O2)2[Bi2Br8]·2H2O and (C8H7N2O2)6[Bi2Cl10]Cl2·2H2O were successfully synthesized by introducing a new birefringent group [C8H7N2O2]+ by a simple aqueous solution evaporation method. They crystallize in the P21/n space group, and their structure consists mainly of the π-conjugated group [C8H7N2O2]+ and the octahedron centered on Bi3+. By first-principles calculations, the birefringence response comes from the [C8H7N2O2]+ group with a planar π-conjugated structure. Meanwhile, the synthesis, structure, first-principles calculations, and optical properties are reported in this paper.

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
The design of giant birefringence was performed by adjusting cations to make parallel and compact alignments of π-conjugated (HxC3N3S3)x-3, where x = 1 and 2) groups with large polarizability anisotropy. Finally, the first mixed alkali/alkali-earth-metal trithiocyanurates, A2B(H2C3N3S3)4·nH2O (A = K, Rb, Cs; B = Mg, Sr; n = 5-8, 12), were designed and synthesized successfully. Importantly, Cs2Mg(H2C3N3S3)4·8H2O (III) and K2Sr(H2C3N3S3)4·5H2O (IV) possess large birefringences of 0.580 and 0.194 at 800 nm, respectively, of III has the largest birefringence among all practical birefringent crystals, cyanurates, and hydroisocyanurates.

Abstract
Selective transformation between organic and inorganic systems is crucial but still remains a challenge. Herein, we demonstrated that selective organic-inorganic transformation is a simple but effective strategy to find new hydroxyfluorooxoborates. By replacing the [Ph4P]/[Ph3MeP] organic cations with Cs atoms, a new hydroxyfluorooxoborate Cs[B3O3F2(OH)2] with three-membered [B3O3F2(OH)2] clusters was synthesized. Theoretical analysis confirmed the effects of different components in the lattice of reported structure on the optical properties.

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 delocalized π-conjugated units are considered as an advantageous gene for improving the optical nonlinearity of acentric crystals. For the first time, we synthesized a new acentric SHG-active metal cyamelurate crystal K3C6N7O3·2H2O (I) by a facile solution method, containing a colossal planar π-conjugated (C6N7O3)3- unit. It displays a strong second-order harmonic generation (SHG) of 4 × KDP and a giant anisotropic birefringence of 0.446 at 1064 nm. The theoretical calculations reveal that such substantial improvement is contributed from the strong molecular susceptibility of (C6N7O3)3- units and their near-perfect coplanar arrangement. Moreover, I exhibits a broadband ultraviolet photoluminescence at 366 nm, suggesting its multifunctional capacity and great potential for compact highly integrated optoelectronic devices.

Abstract
An antimony fluoride melamine birefringent crystal, (C3N6H7)2SbF5·H2O, was obtained by introducing the π-conjugated delocalized melamine and antimony trifluoride via a simple aqueous solution evaporation method. It features one-dimensional parallel [C3N6H7]∞ chains further connected by hydrogen bonds originated from [SbF5]2- groups with lone pairs. The experimental optical band gap (4.74 eV) allows it to be used in the ultraviolet region. The first-principles calculations suggest that (C3N6H7)2SbF5·H2O exhibits a large birefringence (∼0.38@550 nm), which is twice larger than that of the commercial CaCO3 crystal. Therefore, introducing the fluoride into π-conjugated melamine may be a good tactic to obtain birefringent crystals with large optical anisotropy.

Abstract
We present a thought-provoking development in chiral resolution. Using a resolving agent of a given handedness, L-proline, we show that both R- and S-enantiomers of mandelic acid can be resolved from a racemic mixture simply by varying the stoichiometry. We are the first to report this specific feature, achieved by the existence of stoichiometrically diverse cocrystal systems between R- and S-mandelic acid and L-proline.

Studies on new functional structural units with both large hyperpolarizability and high anisotropy are essentially important for finding high-performance nonlinear optical (NLO) materials and enriching the material systems. Under the guidance of the "structure-analogue" strategy, the work utilizes the molecular engineering approach to direct the construction of target units, BC2N5O2 and B(C2N5)2 units. The BC2N5O2 unit with a highly analogous structure to the B3O7 group and its derivate B(C2N5)2 unit with a configuration of B5O10 group are designed as NLO-active units. Furthermore, two compounds with these new NLO-active units, BC2N5H6(OH)2·H2O (I) and B(C2N5H6.5)2(NO3)2 (II), are synthesized, successfully. These compounds exhibit excellent properties with second-harmonic generation (SHG) responses ranging from 0.5 to 5.9 times that of KDP and large birefringence (ΔnI = 0.181 @ 546.1 nm and ΔnII = 0.148 @ 546.1 nm). Theoretical calculations prove that the BC2N5O2 and B(C2N5)2 units make great contributions to the SHG effects and birefringence, which confirms that the BC2N5O2 and B(C2N5)2 units are novel NLO bifunctional units and could be excellent fundamental building blocks to construct amounts of novel NLO and birefringence crystals. Our studies would enlighten the research studies on biguanide complexes of boron.

Abstract
The combination of organic and inorganic nonlinear active units to obtain organic-inorganic hybrid materials has been proved to be a very effective method to obtain nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with excellent properties. Herein we reported two hybrid melamine-based compounds, namely, acentric (C3H7N6)6(H2PO4)4(HPO4)·4H2O (1) and centrosymmetric (C3H7N6)2SO4·2H2O (2), which were synthesized via facile solvent evaporation method. Compound 1 features a three-dimensional (3D) network structure composed of ∞[(H2PO4)4(HPO4)(H2O)4]6- layers which are further linked with ∞[(C3H7N6)6]6+ layers via hydrogen bonds. Compound 2 displays a 3D structure composed of [(C3H7N6)2(SO4)(H2O)2]∞ layers further linked with each other by hydrogen bonds. Compound 1 presents a second harmonic generation signal of about 0.1 × KDP. Furthermore, UV-vis and infrared spectra, thermal analyses, and theoretical calculation were also adopted to evaluate its NLO performance. The theoretical calculations showed that the SHG response and large birefringence of 1 were primarily caused by the (C3H7N6)+, (H2PO4)-, and (HPO4)2- groups.

Abstract
SO4 tetrahedral groups have weak polarization anisotropy, which thus results in the small birefringence of sulfates. Here, we report new sulfate CsY(SO4)2·4H2O with unprecedented birefringence among deep-ultraviolet (deep-UV) sulfates. Its single crystal (10 mm × 3.5 mm × 1.5 mm) was simply grown by an aqueous solution evaporation technique, and it features a rare layered structure composed of YO9 polyhedra, SO4 tetrahedra, and H2O molecules. Interestingly, each SO4 group donates two oxygen atoms to edge-share with one adjacent YO9 polyhedron and thus causes severe distortion of these groups. The characteristic edge-sharing mode gives CsY(SO4)2·4H2O a large birefringence of ∼0.045@546 nm, which is the maximum among deep-UV sulfates and phosphates with similar non-π-conjugated anionic groups. The ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared diffuse reflection and transmission spectra, infrared spectrum, thermal stability, and theoretical calculations are also presented. The fascinating results will improve our understanding of sulfates and may provide useful insights into the exploration of deep-UV sulfates with large birefringence.

Abstract
Birefringent crystals with strong anisotropy are important components in modern optical devices. The newly discovered planar π-conjugated cyanurate group (HxC3N3O3)x-3 (x = 0-3) has been demonstrated as an effective functional motif for improving birefringence in the ultraviolet region. Here, single co-crystals of alkali halide cyanurates, RbBr·(H3C3N3O3) (I), RbI·(H3C3N3O3) (II), and CsBr·(H3C3N3O3) (III) were synthesized by the ethanol solution method, and NaBr·(H3C3N3O3) (IV) was obtained via the solvent-drop grinding method. These four co-crystals feature a planar (H3C3N3O3) arrangement and exhibit wide band gaps (> 4.90 eV), tunable birefringence (Δnexp∼ 0.124-0.256), and high thermal stability (156 °C-349 °C). In addition, first principles calculations were also carried out to evaluate the relationship between molecule density, spatial arrangement and optical birefringence, and suggested a great tailoring effect of the alkali metal and halogen species on regulating the optical anisotropy of co-crystal cyanurates.

Abstract
Employing π-conjugated anionic groups in molecular construction has been proven to be an effective strategy to find superior ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals over the decades. Herein, unlike the traditional π-conjugated anionic groups, we identify that a π-conjugated cationic group, viz., [C(NH2)3]+, is also an excellent UV NLO-active functional group in theory. Furthermore, we identify a [C(NH2)3]+-containing compound, C(NH2)3ClO4, as a promising UV NLO candidate due to its short UV cutoff edge (200 nm), remarkable second-harmonic generation effect (∼3 × KDP), and moderate birefringence of 0.076@1064 nm. Additionally, C(NH2)3ClO4 has excellent ferroelectric properties and reversal of domains, which also enables it to produce ultraviolet coherent light as short as 200 nm by a quasi-phase matching technique with a periodically poling method. Our study may provide not only a promising UV NLO crystal but also a new π-conjugated functional unit, [C(NH2)3]+, which will open a path to finding new classes of high-performance UV NLO crystals.

Abstract
Two new alkaline earth barbiturates, Ca(H3C4N2O3)2·H2O and Sr(H5C8N4O5)2·4H2O, were synthesized via the mild hydrothermal technique. For Ca(H3C4N2O3)2·H2O, the stacking (H3C4N2O3)- anions along the c axis are interconnected by CaO7 polydedra forming a three-dimensional structure. Also, for Sr(H5C8N4O5)2·4H2O, it has two-dimensional layers composed by SrO7 polyhedra and (H5C8N4O5)- anions. The (H5C8N4O5)- anions can be seen as two (H3C4N2O3)- anions connected each other via the N-C bond. Powder second-harmonic generation (SHG) measurements revealed that Ca(H3C4N2O3)2·H2O is a phase-matchable material with a moderate SHG response (ca. 1.15× that of KDP). Furthermore, the birefringence values of the two crystals were measured as 0.49 and 0.475 at 546.1 nm, respectively. The theoretical calculations showed that the SHG response and large birefringence were primarily caused by the (H3C4N2O3)- and (H5C8N4O5)- groups.

Abstract
We report a new strongly birefringent material, [Al(H2O)6](IO3)2(NO3) (AINO). Based on a detailed analysis, we concluded that its enhanced birefringence (0.253 at 546 nm) predominantly resulted from a synergy of the effects of its (NO3)- and (IO3)- functional motifs, combined with an equally important and indispensable optimal arrangement of these two groups in the structure. This work has provided insight for discovering new birefringent materials.

Abstract
The first alkali-metal nitrate isocyanurates, A(H3C3N3O3)(NO3) (A = K, Rb), were synthesized by the tactic of introducing (NO3)- into isocyanurate with a mild hydrothermal technique. They crystallized into the same monoclinic centrosymmetric (CS) space group P21/c, which featured a 2D [(H3C3N3O3)(NO3)]∞ layered structure separated by K+ and Rb+ cations, respectively. Both compounds exhibited short ultraviolet cutoff edges (λcutoff = 228 and 229 nm) and large birefringences (Δn = 0.253 and 0.224 at 546.1 nm). More importantly, in comparison with most of the isocyanurates and nitrates, they have better thermal stability with decomposition temperatures up to 319.8 and 324.4 °C. In addition, our theoretical calculations reveal that the π-conjugated groups play significant roles in improving the optical anisotropy. Remarkably, introducing a π-conjugated inorganic acid radical (NO3)- into isocyanurate is an extremely meaningful strategy to explore new UV birefringent crystals.

Abstract
The two functional chalcogenides K2MnGe2Se6 and Na2HgSn2Se6, featuring a straight-chain structure, have been successfully prepared and fully characterized. K2MnGe2Se6 shows paramagnetic behavior. The birefringence of Na2HgSn2Se6 is as large as 0.3107 and derives from the superposition of the polarizabilities of its fundamental building blocks, on the basis of first-principles calculations. Moreover, the flexible framework of the A2MIIMIV2Se6 family enables a variety of heterogeneous substitutions and thus offers possible birefringence tunability, which may inspire the design and exploratory synthesis of IR birefringent materials.

Abstract
A mixed alkali-metal nonlinear optical (NLO) dihydro-cyanurate crystal Rb3Na(H2C3N3O3)4·3H2O has been synthesized via the hydrothermal method. Its calculated birefringence is about 0.368, which is very large, its ultraviolet (UV) cutoff edge is down to 230 nm, and the powder second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity is about 0.2 × KDP. In addition, a first-principles investigation of the electronic properties on Rb3Na(H2C3N3O3)4·3H2O was carried out. The calculated band gap and SHG coefficient values agree well with the experimental ones. These results suggest that it could be applied as a UV birefringent material.

Abstract
A new series of dihydro-isocyanurates, namely, RE(H2C3N3O3)2·(OH)·xH2O (RE = La, Y and Gd) was readily obtained by a mild hydrothermal technique using lithium hydroxide as a deprotonation agent. La(H2C3N3O3)2·OH·2H2O and Re(H2C3N3O3)2·OH·5H2O (Re = Y, Gd) crystallized in the centrosymmetric (CS) space groups P21/c and P1[combining macron], respectively. Their intricate 3D frameworks were built by cationic polyhedrons (LaO8N/ReO8) and (H2C3N3O3)- groups. The experiments and theoretical studies demonstrated that these compounds possessed short ultraviolet cut-off edges (≤240 nm) and large birefringences (Δn≥ 0.257@546.1 nm). In addition, the theoretical studies further revealed that the (H2C3N3O3)2- group plays a pivotal role in strengthening the optical anisotropy for all compounds.
