[0034] Crystal structure analysis of samples 1-1# to 1-8#

[0035] The structures of samples 1-1# to 1-8# were analyzed using single crystal X-ray diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction methods.

[0036] The single crystal X-ray diffraction test was performed on a Bruker D8 VENTURE CMOS X-ray single crystal diffractometer in Germany. The data collection temperature was 298.15K, and the diffraction light source was graphite monochromatized Mo-Kα rays. The scanning mode was ω; the data were processed for absorption correction using the Multi-Scan method. The structure analysis was completed using the SHELXTL-2018 program package; the positions of heavy atoms were determined by the direct method, and the coordinates of the remaining atoms were obtained by the difference Fourier synthesis method; the F-based 2 The coordinates of all atoms and anisotropic thermal parameters were refined using the full-matrix least-squares method.

[0037] The powder X-ray diffraction test was carried out on a Bruker D8 X-ray powder diffractometer from Bruker, Germany.

The generated second harmonics were detected using a spectrometer, and the harmonic intensity was displayed using an oscilloscope. The sample crystal and a standard KDP crystal were ground separately and sieved using a standard sieve to produce crystals with different particle sizes: 26-50, 50-74, 74-105, 105-150, and 150-200 μm, respectively. The SHG signal was observed to determine whether phase matching was achieved. Under identical test conditions, the SHG intensity of the sample and the standard KDP sample were compared to determine the relative magnitude of the SHG effect.
