include the submillimeter wavelengths of terahertz (THz) frequencies. Examples of such applications are THz wave generation and detection, cross-phase modulation, and THz nonlinear optics. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] Compared to inorganic crystals, the organic alternatives exhibit superior macroscopic second-order optical nonlinearity, which often shows one order of magnitude larger nonlinear optical and electro-optic coefficients. [8] There is still a strong demand for improving the macroscopic optical nonlinearity of organic crystals, which is presently below the level achieved in the organic poled polymers. For example, the electro-optic coefficient of benchmark organic crystals is at the level of ≈50 pm V −1 at 1.3 µm. [9][10][11] On the other hand, the poled polymer systems may exhibit much larger electro-optic coefficients, up to ≈500 pm V −1 at 1.3 µm. [12][13][14] However, progress on designing a strategy to exceed the limits of the state-of-the-art optical nonlinearity of current benchmark organic crystals seems to be slow. Moreover, besides the large macroscopic optical nonlinearity desired, many other crystal characteristics that make possible to grow high-quality bulk crystals with plate-like crystal morphology and high thermal stability are required for real-world photonic applications.Developing new organic crystals with large macroscopic second-order optical nonlinearity is a challenging issue Newly designed halogenated organic quinolinium crystals proposed in this work provide fully optimized molecular ordering for maximizing the optical nonlinearity and high-performance broadband terahertz (THz) wave generation. The ultralarge diagonal optical nonlinearity (almost 300 × 10 −30 esu) of the new halogenated crystals is approximately two times larger than that of state-of-the-art pyridinium-based crystals. In contrast, nonhalogenated analogous crystals exhibit very low (or vanishing) diagonal optical nonlinearity. This is attributed to halogen-induced unique interionic interactions and finetuning of the space-filling characteristics. In addition, the halogenated crystals show a good ability for bulk crystal growth of few millimeters lateral size with plate-like morphology and high thermal stability that are finally required for real-world applications. The new halogenated quinolinium crystals exhibit excellent THz wave generation characteristics, significantly surpassing the limit of conversion efficiency and spectral bandwidth of inorganic benchmark crystals. A 0.16 mm thick chlorinated crystal generates a 29-times larger THz field than 1.0 mm thick inorganic ZnTe crystals at 1500 nm pump wavelength with a flat and broadband spectrum extending up to ≈8 THz. Therefore, introducing halogen substituents is a potential design strategy for designing new organic crystals showing ultralarge macroscopic hyperpolarizability and high-performance THz wave generation.
