Reports from Chinese Academy of Sciences Describe Recent Advances in Chemicals and Chemistry (Recent Progress In Nonlinear Optical Molybdenum/tungsten Tellurites: Structures, Crystal Growth and Characterizations).

A recent report from the Chinese Academy of Sciences discusses advancements in the field of Chemicals and Chemistry, specifically focusing on noncentrosymmetric molybdenum/tungsten tellurites for second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. These compounds show promise for optoelectronic technologies in the mid-infrared range, with unique properties such as high optical transmittance and wider band gaps compared to conventional NLO materials. The research aims to enhance the understanding of these materials and accelerate the development of high-performance mid-IR NLO crystals to meet technological demands. [Extracted from the article]
