Inorganic chalcogenides have been studied as the most promising infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) candidates for past decades. However, it is proven difficult to discover high-performance materials that combine often-incompatible properties of large energy gap (Eg ) and strong second harmonic generation (SHG) response (deff ), especially rare-earth chalcogenides.

Infrared nonlinear optical (IR-NLO) materials are the key components in solid-state lasers for military and civilian applications. The development of IR-NLO remains urgent because existing commercial AgGaS2 (AGS), AgGaSe2, ZnGeP2 limited their own intrinsic shortcomings, example, lower laser damage thresholds (LDTs), non-phase-matchable feature, strong two-photon absorption, respectively, exhibited AgGaSe2 at a conventional 1 μm. Chalcogenides, halides, iodates known to be common sources...
