A Rare Earth Chalcogenide Nonlinear Optical Crystal KLaGeS4: Achieving Good Balance among Band Gap, Second Harmonic Generation Effect, and Birefringence.
Inorganic chemistry(2024)
摘要
Midinfrared nonlinear optical (NLO) rare earth chalcogenides have attracted extensive research interest in recent several decades. Employing charge-transfer engineering strategy in the early stage, rigid tetrahedral [GeS4] was introduced into rare-earth sulfides to synthesize KYGeS4, which had an enlarged band gap while maintaining a strong second harmonic generation (SHG) effect. Based on KYGeS4, La was equivalently substituted to successfully synthesize KLaGeS4 with a stronger SHG effect (dij = 1.2 × AgGaS2) and lower cost. Meanwhile, a larger band gap (Eg = 3.34 eV) was retained and realized phase matching (Δn = 0.098 @ 1064 nm). KLaGeS4 enabled an effective balance among band gap, SHG effect, and birefringence, making it a promising candidate for infrared NLO optical materials among various rare-earth sulfides.
