A new noncentrosymmetric pyrophosphate, LiGaP2O7, is designed and synthesized by a reasonable energy-band regulation engineering strategy with isovalent substitution. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space groupP21(No. 4) with lattice parametersa= 4.7593(10) Å,b= 7.9586(16) Å,c= 6.8940(14) Å, andZ= 2, which is the isomorphic compound of LiMP2O7(M = Fe, Cr). Compared with LiMP2O7, LiGaP2O7exhibits a wide band gap of 4.56 eV due to no d–d electronic transitions. Meanwhile, good phase-matching ability and a moderate second-harmonic-generation (SHG) response in LiGaP2O7are maintained. First-principles calculations of the band structure and nonlinear-optical performance were also performed in order to gain insight into the role of the Ga–O groups in the band gap and SHG effect source.
