Реферат:	eng: In search of new nonlinear optical crystals for the mid-IR range, we grew single crystals of LiGa0.55In0.45Te2 (LGITe) of optical quality; its structure was established, and the spectroscopic properties were studied. LGITe crystallizes in a tetragonal chalcopyrite-like (I (4) over bar 2d) structure at 667 +/- 5 degrees C. Crystals are transparent in the 0.76-14.8 mu m spectral region with some absorption bands related to OH/H2O and Ge-O vibrations. Analysis of the Tauc plots showed that LGITe is a direct band gap semiconductor with the band gap E-g = 1.837 eV at 300 K. The Raman spectrum for LGITe is very similar to that for LiGaTe2: the most intense band A(1) near 120 cm(-1) corresponds to the Li-Te vibration. DFT calculations were carried out for the first time to simulate the energy band structure (band gap similar to 1.67 eV), density of states (DOS), birefringence (0.049 at 2 mu m), and nonlinear susceptibility (d(14) = d(36) = -48.73 pm/V). For ternary LiInTe2 these parameters are Delta n = 0.007 and d(14) = d(36) = -61.4 pm/V, respectively. The calculated optical properties indicate that LiGa0.55In0.45Te2 is a promising mid-IR nonlinear optical crystal with nonlinear parameters higher than those of LiGaTe2.
