Abstract
Inorganic nonlinear optical material is one of the key branches of materials science which has attracted much attention as important nonlinear media. In this chapter, the most widely used and newly developed inorganic nonlinear optical materials in infrared, near-infrared to visible, ultraviolet and deep-ultraviolet spectral ranges are described, including their structures, linear and nonlinear optical properties, single-crystal growth and applications in the laser systems according to their development history. This chapter provides a comprehensive perspective on the present development and necessary improvement in the future of inorganic nonlinear optical materials.
