Synthesis, structure and properties of a new noncentrosymmetric aluminoborate

A new acentric aluminoborate (H2TETA)[Al(B5O10)] has been solvothermally synthesized and characterized, in which the AlO4 tetrahedra and B5O10 clusters alternately link to form a 3D framework with 8-/11-/14-ring channels, showing good SHG signals approximately 1.5 times that of KDP.
