An excellent second harmonic generation (SHG) material, LiMg(IO 3 ) 3 (LMIO), has been elaborately designed from Li 2 M IV (IO 3 ) 6 (M IV = Ti, Sn, and Ge) by aliovalent substitution of the central M IV cation followed by Wyckoff position exchange. The new structure sustains the ideal-alignment of...
