Abstract
Oriented synthesis of functional materials is a focus of attention in material science. As one of the most important function materials, infrared nonlinear optical materials with large second harmonic generation effects and broad optical band gap are in urgent need. In this work, directed by the theoretical structure prediction, the first series of non-centrosymmetric (NCS) alkali-alkaline earth metal [PS4]-based thiophosphates LiCaPS4 (Ama2), NaCaPS4 (P21), KCaPS4 (Pna21), RbCaPS4 (Pna21), CsCaPS4 (Pna21) were successfully synthesized. Comprehensive characterizations reveal that ACaPS4 could be regarded as promising IR NLO materials, exhibiting wide band gap (3.77-3.86 eV), moderate birefringence (0.027-0.064 at 1064 nm), high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT, ~10×AGS), and suitable phase-matching second harmonic generation responses (0.4-0.6×AGS). Structure-properties analyses illustrate that the Ca-S bonds show non-ignorable covalent feature, and [PS4] together with [CaSn] units play dominant roles to determine the band gap and SHG response. This work indicates that Li-, Na- and K- analogs may be promising infrared nonlinear optical material candidates, and this is the first successful case of "prediction to synthesis" involving infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals in the thiophosphate system and may provide a new avenue to the design and oriented synthesis of high-performance function materials in the future.

Abstract
Midinfrared nonlinear optical (NLO) rare earth chalcogenides have attracted extensive research interest in recent several decades. Employing charge-transfer engineering strategy in the early stage, rigid tetrahedral [GeS4] was introduced into rare-earth sulfides to synthesize KYGeS4, which had an enlarged band gap while maintaining a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) effect. Based on KYGeS4, La was equivalently substituted to successfully synthesize KLaGeS4 with a stronger SHG effect (dij = 1.2 × AgGaS2) and lower cost. Meanwhile, a larger band gap (Eg = 3.34 eV) was retained and realized phase matching (Δn = 0.098 @ 1064 nm). KLaGeS4 enabled an effective balance among band gap, SHG effect, and birefringence, making it a promising candidate for infrared NLO optical materials among various rare-earth sulfides.

Abstract
Infrared nonlinear optical (IR NLO) materials play significant roles in laser technology. The novel functional building units (FBUs) are of great importance in constructing NLO materials with strong second harmonic generation (SHG). Herein, polysulfide anion [Sx]2- (x = 2, 3, 4, 5) units are investigated on NLO-related properties and structure-performance relationships. Theoretical calculations uncover that the [Sx]2- (x = 2, 3, 4, 5) units are potential IR NLO FBUs with large polarizability anisotropy (δ), hyperpolarizability (β) and wide HOMO-LUMO gap. Fourteen crystals including [Sx]2- (x = 2, 3, 4, 5) units are calculated and analyzed. The results show that these units can result in a wide IR transmittance range, significant SHG effects, wide band gap Eg (Na2S4: Eg = 3.09 eV), and large birefringence Δn [BaS3 (P21212): Δn = 0.70]. More importantly, it is highlighted that the crystal materials including with [Sx]2- (x = 2, 3, 4, 5) groups are good candidates for the exploration of the outstanding IR NLO materials.

Abstract
This work aimed to alleviate the limitations of existing mid-infrared nonlinear-optics (MIR-NLO) crystals by conducting theoretical research on 1D-[MX2]∞ (1D = one-dimensional; M = metallic element; X = anionic element) structures in relation to NLO. An analysis was conducted on the electronic structure and optical properties of six selenides (BaZnGeSe4, KxBa1-x/2Ga2Se4, KxBa1-x/2GayIn2-ySe4, KxBa1-x/2In2Se4, BaZnSiSe4, SrZnSiSe4) and three arsenides (Cs2SnAs2, Rb2SnAs2, K2SnAs2) using first principles. Afterwards, the inherent characteristics of these 1D-[MX2]∞ chains were further examined. The calculation results suggest that the presence of internal distortion (non-centrosymmetric) and high electronegativity in M elements can greatly enhance the NLO capability of 1D-[MX2]∞ structures. Furthermore, the first-ever prediction of K2SnAs2's NLO ability has been made. Ultimately, the establishment of a theoretical structure (K2BaSn2As4) provides guidance for the subsequent creation of high-performance MIR-NLO crystals.

Abstract
Infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with strong NLO response, wide band gap and high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) are highly expected in current laser technologies. Herein, by introducing double alkaline-earth metal (AEM) atoms, three wide band gap selenide IR NLO materials AIIMg6Ga6Se16 (AII = Ca, Sr, Ba) with excellent linear and NLO optical properties have been rationally designed and fabricated. AIIMg6Ga6Se16 (AII = Ca, Sr, Ba) are composed of unique [AIISe6] triangular prisms, [MgSe6] octahedra and [GaSe4] tetrahedra. The introduction of double AEMs effectively broadens the band gaps of selenide-based IR NLO materials. Among them, CaMg6Ga6Se16, achieving the best balance between the second-harmonic generation response (∼1.5 × AgGaS2), wide band gap (2.71 eV), high LIDT (∼9 × AgGaS2), and moderate birefringence of 0.052 @ 1064 nm, is a promising NLO candidate for high power IR laser. Theoretical calculations indicate that the NLO responses and band gaps among the three compounds are mainly determined by the NLO-active [GaSe4] units. The results enrich the chemical diversity of chalcogenides, and give some insight into the design of new functional materials based on the rare [AIISe6] prismatic units.

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
Non-centrosymmetric (NCS) and polar materials capable of exhibiting many important functional properties are indispensable for electro-optical technologies, yet their rational structural design remains a significant challenge. Here, we report a "group grafting" strategy for designing the first multi-chromophore selenophosphate, Cs3In(In4Se7)(P2Se6), that crystallizes in a NCS and polar space group of Cm. The structure features a unique basic building unit (BBU) [In(In4Se10)(P2Se6)], formed through "grafting [In4Se10] supertetrahedra on the root of [In(P2Se6)2] groups". Theoretical calculations confirm that this [In(In4Se10)(P2Se6)] BBU can achieve a "1+1>2" combination of properties from two chromophores, [In4Se10] supertetrahedron and ethane-like [P2Se6] dimer. That makes Cs3In(In4Se7)(P2Se6) exhibit excellent linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties, including a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response (~6×AgGaS2), a large band gap (2.45 eV), broad infrared (IR) transmission (up to 19.5 μm), a significant birefringence (0.26 @1064 nm) as well as the congruently-melting property at ~700 °C. Therefore, Cs3In(In4Se7)(P2Se6) will be a promising NLO crystal, especially in the IR region, and this research also demonstrates that "group grafting" will be an effective strategy for constructing novel polar BBUs with multi-chromophore to design NCS structures and high-performance IR NLO materials.

Abstract
Divalent lanthanide inorganic compounds can exhibit unique electronic configurations and physicochemical properties, yet their synthesis remains a great challenge because of the weak chemical stability. To the best of our knowledge, although several lanthanide monoxides epitaxial thin films have been reported, there is no chemically stable crystalline divalent lanthanide chalcogenide synthesized up to now. Herein, by using octahedra coupling tetrahedra single/double chains to construct an octahedral crystal field, we synthesized the stable crystalline La(II)-chalcogenide, LaMg6Ga6S16. The nature of the divalent La2+ cations can be identified by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray absorption near-edge structure and electron paramagnetic resonance, while the stability is confirmed by the differential thermal scanning, in-situ variable-temperature powder X-ray diffraction and a series of solid-state reactions. Owing to the particular electronic characteristics of La2+(5d1), LaMg6Ga6S16 displays an ultrabroad-band green emission at 500 nm, which is the inaugural instance of La(II)-based compounds demonstrating luminescent properties. Furthermore, as LaMg6Ga6S16 crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric space group, P-6, it is the second-harmonic generation (SHG) active, possessing a comparable SHG response with classical AgGaS2. In consideration of its wider band gap (Eg = 3.0 eV) and higher laser-induced damage threshold (5×AgGaS2), LaMg6Ga6S16 is also a promising nonlinear optical material.

Abstract
For non-centrosymmetric (NCS) oxides intended for ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) applications, achieving a wide band gap, large second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity, and sufficient birefringence to satisfy phase matching is a significant challenge due to their inherent incompatibility. To address this issue, this study proposes a strategy called framework-optimized structural transformation. Building upon centrosymmetric (CS) NaGa(SeO3)2 as a foundation, an original UV selenite NLO material, NaLu(SeO3)2, was successfully synthesized. The derived NaLu(SeO3)2 exhibits a balanced comprehensive performance, including a band gap (5.3 eV), an SHG response (2.7 × KDP), a UV cut-off edge (210 nm), a laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) (151.69 MW cm-2), birefringence (Cal: 0.138@546 nm, Exp: 0.153@546 nm), thermal stability (∼575 °C) and environmental stability. Notably, its SHG effect, band gap, LIDT, and birefringence are all the largest among UV non-hydrogen pure selenite materials. Such progress can be attributed to the successful arrangement of the SeO3 groups by optimizing the cations on the framework of the parent compound.

Abstract
The first examples of alkali metal selenite sulfates, namely, Na8(SeO3)(SO4)3 (1), Na2(H2SeO3)(SO4) (2), and K4(H2SeO3)(HSO4)2(SO4) (3), were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal reactions. Their structures display three different zero-dimensional configurations composed of isolated sulfate tetrahedra and selenite groups separated by alkali metals. Na8(SeO3)(SO4)3 (1) features a noncentrosymmetric structure, while Na2(H2SeO3)(SO4) (2) and K4(H2SeO3)(HSO4)2(SO4) (3) are centrosymmetric. Powder second-harmonic-generation measurements revealed that Na8(SeO3)(SO4)3 (1) shows a phase-matchable SHG intensity about 1.2 times that of KDP. UV-vis-NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopic analysis indicated that Na8(SeO3)(SO4)3 (1) has a short UV cutoff edge and a large optical band gap, which makes it a possible UV nonlinear optical material. Theoretical calculations revealed that the birefringence of Na8(SeO3)(SO4)3 (1) is 0.041 at 532 nm, which is suitable for phase-matching condition. This work provides a good experimental foundation for the exploration of new UV nonlinear crystals in an alkali metal selenite sulfate system.

Abstract
Exploring new material systems is a highly significant task in the field of inorganic chemistry. A new mixed-valent selenium compound, Hg3Se(SeO3)(SO4), was successfully synthesized through in situ reactions. This compound exhibits a novel three-dimensional structure composed of Hg3Se(SO4) layers bridged by SeO3 trigonal pyramids. It is the first structure containing (SeO3)2-, (SO4)2-, and Se2- simultaneously. In addition, Hg3Se(SeO3)(SO4) possesses a wide bandgap (3.5 eV), moderate birefringence (Cal:0.064@546 nm, Exp:0.069@546 nm), a high laser-induced damage threshold (23.35 MW cm-2), and a wide transmittance window (0.28-6.6 μm). Our work demonstrates that mixed-valent (+4, -2) selenite selenide can be potential optical materials for the mid-infrared region.

Breaking Through the Trade-Off Between Wide Band Gap and Large SHG Coefficient in Mercury-Based Chalcogenides for IR Nonlinear Optical Application. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2304563.

Abstract
It is substantially challenging for non-centrosymmetric (NCS) Hg-based chalcogenides for infrared nonlinear optical (IR-NLO) applications to realize wide band gap (Eg > 3.0 eV) and sufficient phase-matching (PM) second-harmonic-generation intensity (deff > 1.0 × benchmark AgGaS2 ) simultaneously due to the inherent incompatibility. To address this issue, this work presents a diagonal synergetic substitution strategy for creating two new NCS quaternary Hg-based chalcogenides, AEHgGeS4 (AE = Sr and Ba), based on the centrosymmetric (CS) AEIn2 S4 . The derived AEHgGeS4 displays excellent NLO properties such as a wide Eg (≈3.04-3.07 eV), large PM deff (≈2.2-3.0 × AgGaS2 ), ultra-high laser-induced damage threshold (≈14.8-15 × AgGaS2 ), and suitable Δn (≈0.19-0.24@2050 nm), making them highly promising candidates for IR-NLO applications. Importantly, such excellent second-order NLO properties are primarily attributed to the synergistic combination of tetrahedral [HgS4 ] and [GeS4 ] functional primitives, as supported by detailed theoretical calculations. This study reports the first two NCS Hg-based materials with well-balanced comprehensive properties (i.e., Eg > 3.0 eV and deff > 1.0 × benchmark AgGaS2 ) and puts forward a new design avenue for the construction of more efficient IR-NLO candidates.

Abstract
A new mixed anionic compound Cd2TeO3Cl2 with unprecedented [Cd2O6Cl4] octahedral dimers has been synthesized, and millimeter-scale single crystals of Cd2TeO3Cl2 have been grown by the vertical Bridgman method with CdCl2 as the flux. Cd2TeO3Cl2 crystallizes in the centrosymmetric P1̄ (no. 2) space group, and shows a mixed cationic layer structure constituted by distorted [TeO3] motifs, mixed anionic [Cd2O6Cl4] chains, and [Cd2O6Cl4] octahedral dimers. Experimental and theoretical results show that Cd2TeO3Cl2 is a direct band gap compound with an experimental band gap of ∼4.25 eV. Meanwhile, the compound has good optical transmittance in the 3-5 μm atmospheric window. The results indicate that Cd2TeO3Cl2 could be used as a promising mid-IR window material, and could enrich the chemical and structural diversity of oxides.

Abstract
Hg-based chalcogenides, as good candidates for the exploration of high-performance infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials, usually exhibit strong NLO effects, but narrow bandgaps. Herein, an unprecedented wide bandgap Hg-based IR NLO material Zn2 HgP2 S8 (ZHPS) with diamond-like structure is rationally designed and fabricated by a tetrahedron re-organization strategy with the aid of structure and property predictions. ZHPS exhibits a wide bandgap of 3.37 eV, which is the largest one among the reported Hg-based chalcogenide IR NLO materials and first breaks the 3.0 eV bandgap "wall" in this system, resulting in a high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of ≈2.2 × AgGaS2 (AGS). Meanwhile, it shows a large NLO response (1.1 × AGS), achieving a good balance between bandgap (≥3.0 eV) and NLO effect (≥1 × AGS) for an excellent IR NLO material. DFT calculations uncover that, compared to normal [HgS4 ]n , highly distorted [HgS4 ]d tetrahedral units are conducive to generating wide bandgap, and the wide bandgap in ZHPS can be attributed to the strong s-p hybridization between Hg─S bonding in distorted [HgS4 ]d , which gives some insights into the design of Hg-based chalcogenides with excellent properties based on distorted [HgS4 ]d tetrahedra.

Abstract
Organic-inorganic hybrid materials have attracted increasing attention due to their unique superiority by combining the features of organic parts with inorganic parts. Herein, two organic-inorganic hybrid nonlinear-optical crystals, [C5H6O2N3]2[IO3]2 (I) and [C5H6O2N3][HSO4]·H2O (II), were successfully synthesized in aqueous solution by selecting 2-amino-3-nitropyridine as the cation and different anions of [IO3]- and [HSO4]-. The two compounds crystallized in the noncentrosymmetric space groups of P21 and P212121, respectively. I displays second-harmonic-generation (SHG) effects of 2.4 × KDP (KH2PO4) and a large birefringence (Δncal ∼ 0.22). Moreover, II exhibits a stronger SHG response of 5.2 × KDP, an enhanced band gap (2.81 eV), as well as a large birefringence (Δncal ∼ 0.25). This work points out a new feasible path for the rational design of high-performance organic-inorganic hybrid materials.

Abstract
The balance between large nonlinear optical (NLO) effect and wide bandgap is the key scientific issue for the exploration of infrared NLO materials. Targeting this issue, two new pentanary chalcogenides KGaGe1.37 Sn0.63 S6 (1) and KGaGe1.37 Sn0.63 Se6 (2) are obtained by the three-in-one strategy, viz. three types of fourfold-coordinated metal elements co-occupying the same site. They crystallize in the tetragonal P43 (1) and monoclinic Cc (2) space group. Their structures can be evolved from benchmark AgGaS2 (AGS) by suitable substitution. Remarkably, 1 is the first NLO sulfide crystallizing with the P43 space group, representing a new structure-type NLO material. The structural relationship between 1 and 2 and the evolution from 1, 2 to AGS are also analyzed. Both 1 and 2 show balanced NLO properties. Specifically, 1 exhibits phase-matchable SHG response of 0.6 × AGS, a wide bandgap of 3.50 eV, and a high laser damage threshold of 6.24 × AGS. Theoretical calculation results suggest that the Ga/Ge/Sn element ratios of the co-occupied sites of 1 and 2 are the most appropriate for stabilizing the structures. The strategy adopted here will provide some inspiration for exploring new high-performance NLO materials.

Abstract
Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals capable of efficient long-wave infrared (8-14 μm) laser output remain scarce, and the exploration of long-wave IR NLO materials with superior comprehensive optical performances is a momentous challenge. Herein, we develop two selenide-halide NLO crystals, Hg3AsSe4Br and Hg3AsSe4I, which are derived from the honeycomb layered topology of prototype GaSe. Remarkably, they exhibit not only strong SHG effects, suitable band gap, large birefringence, broad IR transparency range and low two-photon absorption coefficients but reinforced interlayer interaction and more benign crystal growth habit, compared to those of GaSe, indicating that they are promising long-wave IR NLO materials. Moreover, Hg3AsSe4I achieved better comprehensive optical properties than conventional IR crystals, GaSe, ZnGeP2, CdSe and AgGaSe2. The idea of honeycomb layered topology construction provides a material design heuristic to explore cutting-edge IR NLO materials.

Abstract
Inorganic chalcogenides have been studied as the most promising infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) candidates for the past decades. However, it is proven difficult to discover high-performance materials that combine the often-incompatible properties of large energy gap (Eg ) and strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response (deff ), especially for rare-earth chalcogenides. Herein, centrosymmetric Cs3 [Sb3 O6 ][Ge2 O7 ] is selected as a maternal structure and a new noncentrosymmetric rare-earth oxychalcogenide, namely, Nd3 [Ga3 O3 S3 ][Ge2 O7 ], is successfully designed and obtained by the module substitution strategy for the first time. Especially, Nd3 [Ga3 O3 S3 ][Ge2 O7 ] is the first case of breaking the trade-off relationship between wide Eg (>3.5 eV) and large deff (>0.5 × AgGaS2 ) in rare-earth chalcogenide system, and thus displays an outstanding IR-NLO comprehensive performance. Detailed structure analyses and theoretical studies reveal that the NLO effect originates mainly from the cooperation of heteroanionic [GaO2 S2 ] and [NdO2 S6 ] asymmetric building blocks. This work not only presents an excellent rare-earth IR-NLO candidate, but also plays a crucial role in the rational structure design of other NLO materials in which both large Eg and strong deff are pursued.

Abstract
Two melamine-based metal halides, (C3 N6 H7 )(C3 N6 H6 )HgCl3 (I) and (C3 N6 H7 )3 HgCl5 (II), are synthesized by incorporating the heavy d10 cation, Hg2+ , and the halide anion, Cl- . The noncentrosymmetric structure of I results from two unique attributes: large asymmetric secondary building units produced by direct covalent coordination of melamine to Hg2+ and a small dihedral angle between melamine molecules. The former makes inorganic modules locally acentric, while the latter prevents planar organic groups from forming deleterious antiparallel arrangement. The unique coordination in I results in an enlarged band gap of 4.40 eV. Due to the large polarizability of the heavy Hg2+ cation and the π-conjugated system of melamine, I exhibits a strong second-harmonic generation efficiency of 5 × KH2 PO4 , larger than any reported melamine-based nonlinear optical materials to date. Density functional theory calculations indicate that I possesses giant optical anisotropy, with a birefringence of 0.246@1064 nm.

Abstract
It is a great challenge to develop UV nonlinear optical (NLO) material due to the demanding conditions of strong second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity and wide band gap. The first ultraviolet NLO selenite material, Y3 F(SeO3 )4 , has been obtained by control of the fluorine content in a centrosymmetric CaYF(SeO3 )2 . The two new compounds represent similar 3D structures composed of 3D yttrium open frameworks strengthened by selenite groups. CaYF(SeO3 )2 has a large birefringence (0.138@532 nm and 0.127@1064 nm) and a wide optical band gap (5.06 eV). The non-centrosymmetric Y3 F(SeO3 )4 can exhibit strong SHG intensity (5.5×KDP@1064 nm), wide band gap (5.03 eV), short UV cut-off edge (204 nm) and high thermal stability (690 °C). So, Y3 F(SeO3 )4 is a new UV NLO material with excellent comprehensive properties. Our work shows that it is an effective method to develop new UV NLO selenite material by fluorination control of the centrosymmetric compounds.

Abstract
The strong mutual coupling of and even the opposite change in the key parameters, such as the band gap (Eg ) and second-order harmonic generation (SHG), leads to the extreme scarcity in high-performance IR nonlinear optical (NLO) chalcogenides. Herein, we report 8 new sulfides, Na2 Ba[(Agx Na1-x )2 Sn2 S7 ] (1, x=0; 1 series, x=0.1-0.6; Na2 Ba[(Li0.58 Na0.42 )2 Sn2 S7 ], 1-0.6Li); Na2 Sr[Cu2 Sn2 S7 ] (2); and Na2 Ba[Cu2 Sn2 S7 ] (3). We use the structural tolerance factor ( t I e x p ${{t}_{I}^{exp}}$ ) to connect the chemical composition, crystal structure, and NLO properties. Guided by these correlations, a better balance between Eg and SHG is realized in 1, which exhibits a large Eg of 3.42 eV and excellent NLO properties (SHG: 1.5×AGS; laser-induced damage threshold: 12×AGS), representing the best performance among the known Hg- or As-free sulfides to date.

Abstract
Infrared nonlinear optical (IR-NLO) materials with wide band gaps are important for generating high-power laser light for modern laser technologies. Herein, a wide band gap IR-NLO material, Rb2CdSi4S10, was rationally designed and fabricated by introducing a NLO-active [Si4S10] T2-supertetrahedron (ST) into the quaternary sulfide system. The Rb2CdSi4S10 shows the largest band gap (4.23 eV) among the quaternary chalcogenide IR-NLO materials reported, which results in a high laser-induced damage threshold (LIDT) of ∼5 × AgGaS2 (AGS) at 1064 nm. At the same time, it has a moderate second-harmonic generation (SHG) response (0.6 × AGS). Based on statistical analyses, the Rb2CdSi4S10 is the first compound to be discovered in the AI2BIICIV4QVI10 family, and also the first Si-rich sulfide IR-NLO material with a [Si4S10] T2-supertetrahedra. The results indicate that Rb2CdSi4S10 is a promising new IR-NLO material, and the NLO-active [Si4S10] T2-ST unit could be used for the exploration of IR-NLO material with excellent performances.

Abstract
Large-sized crystals of the quaternary iodate NaVO2(IO3)2(H2O) (NVIO) with centimeter-scale dimensions (23 mm × 18 mm × 6 mm as a representative) have been successfully grown by the top-seeded hydrothermal method. Linear optical properties have been measured, including the optical transmission spectrum and refractive index. The NVIO crystal possesses an optical window with high transmittance (above 80%) over the range of 500-1410 nm and exhibits strong optical anisotropy with large birefringence Δn (nz - nx) of 0.1522 at 1064 nm and 0.1720 at 532 nm. Based on the measured refractive indices, the phase-matching conditions for second-harmonic generation (SHG) have been calculated, and SHG devices have further been fabricated along the calculated type I and type II phase-matching directions of (θ = 39.0°, φ = 3.8°) and (θ =53.8°, φ = 1.3°). Laser experiments of extra-cavity frequency doubling have been performed on these NVIO devices. It has been confirmed that the effective SHG conversion from 1064 to 532 nm could be achieved with an energy conversion efficiency of 8.1%. Our work demonstrates that large-sized NVIO crystals are promising in the frequency-doubling application.

Abstract
As one type of material containing multiple anions, oxysulfides can combine the advantages of oxides and sulfides and are deeply studied as nonlinear-optical (NLO) materials. Herein, a new melilite-type pentanary oxysulfide Sr2CoGe2OS6 is studied. It crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric tetragonal space group P4̅21m, and its structure features GeOS3 and CoS4 tetrahedra-built {[CoGe2OS6]4-}∞ layers. Its powder sample exhibits a moderate phase-matchable NLO response and a high laser-induced damage threshold. The NLO response is mainly determined by CoS4 tetrahedra according to the theoretical calculation results. This work indicates that transition-metal oxysulfides can also be considered as potential infrared NLO materials.

Abstract
The symmetry of crystals is an extremely important property of crystals. Crystals can be divided into centrosymmetric and non-centrosymmetric crystals. In this paper, an infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) material AgGaGeSe4 was synthesized. The related performance analysis, nonlinear optical properties, and first-principle calculation of AgGaGeSe4 were also introduced in detail. In the AgGaGeSe4 structure, Ge4+ was replaced with Ga3+ and produced the same number of vacancies at the Ag+ position. The low content of Ge doping kept the original chalcopyrite structure and improved its optical properties such as the band gap. The UV-Vis diffuse reflection spectrum shows that the experimental energy band gap of AgGaGeSe4 is 2.27 eV, which is 0.48 eV larger than that of AgGaSe2 (1.79 eV). From the perspective of charge-transfer engineering strategy, the introduction of Group IV Ge elements into the crystal structure of AgGaSe2 effectively improves its band gap. The second harmonic generation (SHG) effect of AgGaGeSe4 is similar to that of AgGaSe2, and at 1064 nm wavelength, the birefringence of AgGaGeSe4 is 0.03, which is greater than that of AgGaSe2 (∆n = 0.02). The results show that AgGaGeSe4 possessed better optical properties than AgGaSe2, and can been broadly applied as a good infrared NLO material.

Abstract
Discovery of new efficient nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with large second-order nonlinearity for the short-wave ultraviolet spectral region (λPM ≤266 nm, PM=phase-matching) is still very challenging. Herein, a new beryllium-free borate CaZn2 (BO3 )2 with Sr2 Be2 B2 O7 (SBBO) double-layered like configuration was rationally designed, which not only preserves the structural merits but also eliminates the limitations of the SBBO crystal. CaZn2 (BO3 )2 shows a large PM second harmonic generation (SHG) reponse of 3.8×KDP, which is 38 times higher than that of its barium analogue. This enhancement mainly originates from the 1 [Zn2 O6 ]∞ polar chains with a large net dipole moment and [BO3 ] units with a high NLO active density. Our findings show the great significance of the [ZnO4 ] tetrahedra introduced strategy to design beryllium-free SBBO-type NLO crystals and also verify the feasibility of using simple non-isomorphic substitution to induce giant second-order nonlinearity enhancement.

Abstract
Low-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides, especially lead-free perovskites, are attracting increasing attention because of their environmentally friendly processing, flexible structures, chemical stability, and promising nonlinear optical properties. Herein, we report a new stable polar 0D lead-free hybrid bismuth chloride to enable the second-harmonic generation (SHG) active material (BTA)3Bi2Cl9 (BTA = benzyltriethylammonium, C6H5CH2N(C2H5)3+) that was obtained by the antisolvent vapor diffusion method and crystallized in the polar Cc space group. Its structure features organic cations surrounded by face-sharing [Bi2Cl9]3- dimers. (BTA)3Bi2Cl9 exhibits a wide direct bandgap (3.21 eV) and a strong phase-matchable SHG conversion efficiency (1.39 × KDP). Theoretical calculation reveals that the SHG response is owing to the synergistic effect of distorted inorganic [Bi2Cl9]3- anions and polar organic BTA+ cations. This work not only enriches the family of organic-inorganic A3M2X9 (A = monovalent cations; M = trivalent metal ions; and X = halide ions) NLO crystals but also provides the possibilities for further designing novel lead-free semiconducting piezoelectric, pyroelectric and ferroelectric materials.

Abstract
Three acentric type-I phase-matchable infrared nonlinear optical materials KSbP2S6, KBiP2S6, and K2BaP2S6, showing excellent balance between the second harmonic generation coefficient, bandgap, and laser damage threshold, were synthesized via a high-temperature solid-state method. KSbP2S6 is isostructural to KBiP2S6, which both crystallize in the β-KSbP2Se6 structure type. K2BaP2S6 was discovered for the first time, which crystallizes in a new structure type. KSbP2S6 and KBiP2S6 exhibit close structural similarity to the parent compound, centrosymmetric Ba2P2S6. The [P2S6] motifs, isotypic to ethane, exist in Ba2P2S6, KSbP2S6, KBiP2S6, and K2BaP2S6. The mixed cations, K/Sb pair, K/Bi pair, and K/Ba pair, play a dual-role of aligning the [P2S6] structure motifs, contributing to a high SHG coefficient, as well as enlarging the bandgap. KSbP2S6, KBiP2S6, and K2BaP2S6 are direct bandgap semiconductors with a bandgap of 2.9(1) eV, 2.3(1) eV and 4.1(1) eV, respectively. KSbP2S6, KBiP2S6, and K2BaP2S6 exhibit a high second harmonic response of 2.2× AgGaS2, 1.8× AgGaS2, and 2.1× AgGaS2, respectively, coupled with a high laser damage threshold of 3× AgGaS2, 3× AgGaS2, and 8× AgGaS2, respectively. The DFT calculations also confirm that the large SHG coefficient mainly originates from [P2S6] anionic motifs.

Abstract
The phase matching ability is a key factor for nonlinear optical crystals to realize coherent output. Herein, a new design strategy combining ultraviolet and infrared functional groups into a ferroelectric was put forward. Thus, a phosphogermanate crystal, KGeOPO4, was designed and studied. It exhibits a wide transparency window (0.22-9.70 μm), a strong second harmonic generation response (5× KH2PO4), a high laser-induced damage threshold (1.61 GW/cm2), and the typical ferroelectricity (coercive field ∼ 9.8 kV/cm and remnant polarization ∼7.6 μC/cm2). In the infrared region, it could realize coherent output by the birefringence phase matching method, while it could generate ultraviolet coherent lights by the quasi-phase matching technique. Therefore, this work designs a promising ultraviolet-infrared nonlinear optical crystal and provides a new perspective for exploring nonlinear optical crystals.

Abstract
Switchable nonlinear optical (NLO) materials have aroused broad interest on account of their captivating optical and electronic properties. We demonstrate a novel perovskite-type crystal with exceptional hydrogen bond interactions that are associated with the onset of reorientational motions of organic cations and thus induce the occurrence of two successive phase transitions to be a two-step NLO switch. This finding affords an alternative approach for the design and assembly of switchable NLO materials.

Abstract
Seven acentric sulfides Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) were grown by a high-temperature salt flux method. The crystal structures of the Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) compounds were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction with the aid of solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) compounds are isostructural and crystallize in the Ba6Ag4Sn4S16 structure type. The Sn-containing compound exhibits high structural similarity to Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) with the presence of an interstitial atomic position partially occupied by Sn atoms. The chemical bonding characteristics of Ba6(Cu2.9Sn0.4)Sn4S16 were understood with electron localization function calculations coupled with crystal orbital Hamilton population calculations. The Ba-S and Cu-S interactions are dominantly ionic, but the Sn-S interactions consist of strong covalent bonding characteristics in Ba6(Cu2.9Sn0.4)Sn4S16. The monovalent Cu atoms, mixed with certain metals with various oxidation states, significantly shift the optical properties of the Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi) compounds. This results in a good balance between the second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response and laser damage threshold (LDT). Ba6(Cu1.9Zn1.1)Sn4S16 possesses a high SHG response and a high LDT of 2.8 × AGS and 3 × AGS, respectively. A density functional theory calculation revealed that CuS4 and SnS4 tetrahedra significantly contribute to the SHG response in Ba6(Cu2Mg)Sn4S16, which also confirmed that CuS4 tetrahedra are crucial for the stability and optical properties of the Ba6(CuxZy)Sn4S16 (Z = Mg, Mn, Zn, Cd, In, Bi, Sn) compounds revealed by electronic structure analysis.

Abstract
Multinary rare-earth chalcogenides with d-block transition metals have attracted considerable attention owing to their intriguing structural architectures and promising practical applications. In this work, three quaternary rare-earth sulfides, Ba4RE2Cd3S10 (RE = Sm, Gd, or Tb), have been obtained by the high-temperature solid-state method. These compounds are isostructural and belong to the noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Cmc21 (No. 36). The basic structural unit contains unique two-dimensional anionic [RE2Cd3S10]8- layers, which are separated by Ba2+ cations. Remarkably, Ba4Sm2Cd3S10 exhibits a high second-harmonic-generation intensity (1.8 times that of AgGaS2) and a significantly higher laser-induced damage threshold (14.3 times that of AgGaS2), which is the first case possessing an infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) property in the quaternary AE/RE/TM/Q (AE = alkaline-earth metals; RE = rare-earth metals; TM = d-block transition metals; and Q = chalcogen) systems. Moreover, theoretical investigations of the structure-property relationship indicate that the combined action of various types of NLO-active units makes the main contribution to the SHG activity. This discovery may shed light on broadening the frontiers of IR-NLO materials.

Abstract
Oxyhalides possessing the merits of oxides and halides have widely received attention for their comprehensive physical performances, especially as potential nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals. Here, based on conventional strategy for obtaining acentric compounds, a Te4+ lone-pair cation was introduced into oxyhalides, and one oxyfluoride, HgTeO2F(OH), was obtained via a hydrothermal reaction. Crystallized in the polar space group Pca21, the layered structure of HgTeO2F(OH) is composed of V-shaped [HgO2]2- groups and [TeO2F(OH)]2- pyramids, in which the [TeO2F(OH)]2- pyramid first served as the NLO functional motif. Its powder sample exhibits a phase-matchable SHG response of 1.1 × KH2PO4 at 1064 nm, and its birefringence (0.09@1064 nm) is sufficient for phase-matchable behavior, which manifests its comprehensive capacity as a promising NLO candidate. Theoretical calculations about electronic structure and optical properties are also carried out, revealing that the Te4+ lone-pair cation makes the predominant contribution to the SHG effect and synergizes with the [HgO2]2- groups.
