Abstract

In article number 1700840, structural evolution from KBe2BO3F2 (KBBF) to Rb3Ba3Li2Al4B6O20F is shown by James M. Rondinelli, Shiv Halasyamani, and co-workers. Through the judicious selection of cations, the layered crystal structure of KBBF is “transformed” to three-dimensional Rb3Ba3Li2Al4B6O20F. The 3D nature of Rb3Ba3Li2Al4B6O20F enabled us to grow large single crystals and determine that the material is nonlinear-optically active with a birefringence of 0.057 at 1064 nm and a Type I phase-matching limit of 243 nm. This suggests Rb3Ba3Li2Al4B6O20F may be used to generate 266 nm radiation.
