“…E-mail: luosy@mail.ipc.ac.cn; zslin@mail.ipc.ac.cn dopant may increase birefringence of crystals and expand the phase-matching region towards the shorter wavelength. [21][22][23] Guided by this idea, we tried to lead other ions into the SBO-type structure to substitute part of boron atoms for the purpose of modifying the birefringence, while keeping the energy band gaps as large as possible. It is well known that beryllium, similar to boron, can coordinate with four oxygen atoms to form the tetrahedral group as well.…”

“…Then the shortest Type I PM wavelength blue-shifts to 259.5 nm (Figure 5e). [71,72] Therefore, the UV light at 266 nm was first achieved in Gadoped BABF crystals by the FHG of 1064 nm Nd: YAG laser with a conversion efficiency of 3.2 % in 2016 (Figure 5f). Absolutely no hygroscopic, the attractive physical, chemical, optical, and NLO properties of BABF have made it a promising NLO crystal to be used in high-power UV laser.…”

Ultraviolet (UV) and Deep-UV (DUV, λ < 200 nm) nonlinear optical (NLO) materials play a significant role to convert the wavelength of laser for producing UV/DUV coherent light in the laser industry. The Al [Ne]3s 2 3p 1 atom with empty d orbitals can form sp 3 , sp 3 d, and sp 3 d 2 hybrid orbitals when bonding with O/F atoms, which leads to the construction of [AlO m F n ] (m + n = 4, 5, 6) units. Therein, aluminoborates have received intensive attention due to the effective structural and functional adjustment effects of the diverse AlÀ O/F units. Accordingly, numerous aluminoborates as candidates for the next generation of UV/DUV NLO materials were discovered. In this review, recently discovered aluminoborates are overviewed and analyzed, including their syntheses, crystal structure features, and second-order NLO performances. We aim to provide the latest progress and outlook on the crystal chemistry of aluminoborates and boost the finding of the next NLO candidates with high performances.

This article reviews the development of new of new oxyfluoride glass-ceramics designed from the viewpoint of the local fluorine structure and crystallization process. Oxyfluoride glasses often form fluoride crystals, but formation of oxyfluoride crystals with a large fraction of fluorine is rare. We successfully fabricated oxyfluoride crystals of BaAlBO 3 F 2 in glass-ceramics through heat-treatment by controlling the local structure of fluorine. The glass showed highly efficient photoluminescence with Eu 3+ -doping up to 97%. A reason for this is the high fluorine content and structural similarity to the crystal. Laser-induced crystallization was performed on Ni 2+doped glass as a heating source, and lines composed of a single crystal were fabricated. Birefringence images and transmission electron microscope observations indicate that the growth of highly c-axis oriented BaAlBO 3 F 2 crystals follows the laser scanning direction even if it changes. Notably, the direction of the c-axis of BaAlBO 3 F 2 crystals changes gradually at crossing and bending points. The model of ''self-organized homo-epitaxial growth" is proposed for orientations of single crystal line with crossing and bending shapes.
