Abstract
γ-BiSeO3Cl crystals were grown and characterized by x-ray microanalysis and second harmonic generation. The structure of γ-BiSeO3Cl was determined by single-crystal x-ray diffraction: sp. gr. Pna21, a = 11.707(4) Å, b = 7.047(5) Å, c = 5.315(1) Å, Z = 4, R 1 = 0.564, wR 2 = 0.1272. The structures and second-order nonlinear responses of α- and γ-BiSeO3Cl are discussed in comparison with those of MTeO3X (M = Bi, rare earth; X = Cl, Br, I) oxyhalides.
