Cover Story: Topology–symmetry analysis of the OD theory allows revealing the similarity of crystals and assigning them to the common structural family. New iodate Ba(IO3)OH occur unexpectedly and are relative to highly nonlinear optical Bi(IO3)O. The higher tetragonal (!) local symmetry of the central first layer produces a different conjugation in the triple with the second layers, leading to higher or lower optical nonlinearity for two members of family. Such structures may be ordered or have significant disorder. The topology–symmetry analysis of other pairs of iodate AgBi(IO3)4 and iodate-sulfate AgBi(SO4)(IO3) leads to obtaining a semi-quantitatively evaluation of nonlinear optical properties based on structural data. Such an approach is original and promising. View this paper
