Abstract

A quaternary metal thioarsenate infrared (IR) nonlinear optical (NLO) compound Na₄SrAs₂S₈ was successfully prepared by a high-temperature reaction method from stoichiometric agents. It crystallizes in the tetragonal P4n2 with the unit cell parameters a = 10.0393(3) Å, c = 6.9638(3) Å, and Z = 2, with the basic structural groups of isolated AsS₄ tetrahedra. Compared with benchmark IR NLO crystal AgGaS₂ (AGS), the title compound exhibits balanced optical properties of large band gap (3.05 eV vs. 2.60 eV) and considerable second harmonic generation response (0.95 × AGS). Moreover, the combined powder X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry analyses demonstrate that Na₄SrAs₂S₈ is a congruent-melting compound with a low melting point of 668 °C, which is benefical for bulk single crystal growth. Experimental and theoretical calculation results indicate that Na₄SrAs₂S₈ is a practically usable IR NLO crystal, also motivating the exploration of thioarsenates as high-performance IR NLO candidates.

同熔红外非线性光学晶体 Na4SrAs2S8。

通过高温反应方法，成功地从化学试剂中制备出了四价金属硫代砷酸盐红外（IR）非线性光学（NLO）化合物 Na4SrAs2S8。该化合物为四方 P4n2 结晶，单胞参数 a = 10.0393(3) Å，c = 6.9638(3) Å，Z = 2，基本结构基团为孤立的 AsS4 四面体。与基准红外 NLO 晶体 AgGaS2（AGS）相比，标题化合物表现出均衡的光学特性：带隙大（3.05 eV 对 2.60 eV），二次谐波发生响应高（0.95 × AGS）。此外，粉末 X 射线衍射和差示扫描量热分析表明，Na4SrAs2S8 是一种同熔化合物，熔点低至 668 ℃，有利于块状单晶生长。实验和理论计算结果表明，Na4SrAs2S8 是一种实际可用的红外 NLO 晶体，这也激发了人们对硫代砷酸盐作为高性能红外 NLO 候选物的探索。
