Design of the Ionic Organic Nonlinear Optical Material NH4[LiC3H(CH3)O4] with Ultrawide Band Gap and Moderate Birefringence

Haotian Tian et al.

Summary: Ionic organic crystals with organic planar p-conjugated units are popular as nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. However, these crystals often have large birefringences and small band gaps. A new flexible p-conjugated unit, [C3H(CH3)O-4](2-), was theoretically revealed to have balanced optical properties. By designing a new NLO-favourable structure, a new ionic organic material, NH4[LiC3H(CH3)O-4], was obtained with a large SHG effect, suitable birefringence, and ultrawide band gap. This study contributes to the design of more NLO materials with balanced optical properties.

Achieving the full-wavelength phase-matching for efficient nonlinear optical frequency conversion in C(NH2)3BF4

Miriding Mutailipu et al.

Summary: Researchers propose a full-wavelength phase-matching crystal that can avoid phase-mismatching throughout its entire optical transparency range. The anisotropic bonding strength in the energy dimension is confirmed to be the key to achieve this ability. They demonstrate a guanidinium tetrafluoroborate crystal that can be phase-matched over its entire optical transparency range, generating harmonic light as short as 193.2 nm. This work lays the foundation for finding a new class of crystals with full-wavelength phase-matching and provides a high-performance crystal for generating 266 nm light.

Huanhuan Cheng et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a strategy of introducing fluorinated tetrahedral boron-centred chromophores to optimize chromatic dispersion. By introducing the [BF4](-) unit with a large HOMO-LUMO band gap, Na4B8O9F10 has been successfully designed and synthesized. It has optimized chromatic dispersion and can achieve a short second harmonic generation phase-matching wavelength.

Independent gradient model based on Hirshfeld partition: A new method for visual study of interactions in chemical systems

Tian Lu et al.

Summary: The powerful independent gradient model (IGM) method has limitations in graphically studying weak interactions. In this article, an improved version of IGM, called IGM based on Hirshfeld partition (IGMH), is proposed to overcome the shortcomings. The rigorous physical background of IGMH is demonstrated through various application examples, showcasing its important value in intuitively understanding interactions in chemical systems.

Deep Ultraviolet-Transparent Materials with Strong Second-Harmonic Response

Binqian Yuan et al.

Summary: Deep ultraviolet (UV) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials with excellent performances are particularly important in laser technology. However, the conflict between large second-harmonic generation (SHG) responses and wide band gaps makes the rational design and syntheses of deep UV NLO materials remain a great challenge. Herein, we report five new and polar deep UV NLO crystals with enhanced SHG responses.

Local Polarity-Induced Assembly of Second-Order Nonlinear Optical Materials

Yanqiang Li et al.

Summary: Second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials have significant applications in various fields, and the rational assembly of high-performance second-order NLO materials remains a challenge. In this study, a local polarity-induced assembly strategy is proposed, which involves using specific cations, self-condensation of weakly polarizable units, and introduction of strongly polarizable units to facilitate the assembly of second-order NLO materials. Using this strategy, a variety of excellent second-order NLO materials have been successfully assembled, expanding the sources of such materials.

UV Solar-Blind-Region Phase-Matchable Optical Nonlinearity and Anisotropy in a π-Conjugated Cation-Containing Phosphate

Chao Wu et al.

Summary: GPO is a non-traditional UV NLO phosphate material with wide UV transparency, strong SHG response, and sufficient optical birefringence, making it suitable for phase-matching at short SHG wavelengths. Due to the introduction of pi-conjugated cations and their favorable arrangement with anions, GPO shows promising potential as a UV solar-blind NLO material that simultaneously optimizes wide UV transparency, large SHG response, and optical anisotropy.

A General Principle for DUV NLO Materials: π-Conjugated Confinement Enlarges Band Gap

Lin Xiong et al.

Summary: The paper proposes a general principle, pi-conjugated confinement, to partially decouple the interunit pi-conjugated interactions by separating non-pi-conjugated units, aiming to enlarge the band gap and gain a large optical anisotropy. This principle suggests that carbonophosphates could be a promising new DUV candidate system.
