Up to now, numbers of new MIR NLO crystals based on chalcogenides have been discovered, including Ga 2 S 3 , LiInS 2 , , Li 2 CdGeS 4 , Li 2 MnGeS 4 , LiGaGe 2 S 6 , KHg 4 Ga 5 Se 12 , RbGeP 4 Se 12 , Ba 8 Sn 4 S 15 , BaGa 4 Se 7 , Ba 3 CsGa 5 Se 10 Cl 2 , Cu 2 HgGeS 4 , Ag 2 CdGeS 4 , MGa 2 S 4 (M = Zn, Cd), , etc. However, materials that meet all of the fundamental conditions of practical applications are still scarce.…”
