This paper presents the synthesis, crystal structure and properties of a new halide, RbHgI3.<\/p>\n<p>Its non-centrosymmetric single crystal can be grown in solution. In its crystal structure, all the polar [HgI4]2\u2212 groups align in such a way that brings a favorable net polarization. The measurement by Kurtz\u2013Perry powder technique indicates that RbHgI3 shows a phase-matchable second harmonic generation (SHG) property seven times stronger than that of KH2PO4 (KDP).<\/p>\n<p>RbHgI3 displays excellent transparency in the range of 0.48\u201325 \u03bcm with relatively good thermal stability. The UV absorption implies that this yellow compound&#8217;s band gap is about 2.56 eV, close to that of AgGaS2. A preliminary measurement indicates that the laser-induced damage threshold of the crystal is about 28.3 MW\/cm2.<\/p>\n<p>These preliminary experimental data reveal that RbHgI3 is a new candidate as nonlinear optical material in the infrared region.<\/p>\n<p>This article comes from mdpi edit released<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Searching for new nonlinear optical crystals to be &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[2],"tags":[47],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=177"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=177"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=177"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.shalomeo.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=177"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
