✦ Synopsis

Nonlinear-laser properties of crystals of non-centrosymmetric orthorhombic semi-organic tris(glycine) zinc chloride Gly 3 •ZnCl 2 are reported in this paper. Under one-micron picosecond pumping many-phonon high-order SRS, a more than two-octaves Stokes and anti-Stokes lasing frequency comb, "Cherenkov"-type SHG, THG, and several cascaded parametric self-sum-frequency generation processes were observed. All recorded Raman-induced laser wavelengths were identified and attributed to the χ (3) -promoting vibration modes of the crystal. A brief review of nonlinear-laser properties of known SRS-active heterodesmic semi-organic crystals with partially ionic bonding character between structural units is given as well.

Trigonal Na 3 Li(MoO 4 ) 2 •6H 2 O was found to be an attractive, simultaneously χ (2) -and χ (3) -active nonlinear optical crystal. We investigated its basic optical properties and observed several nonlinear effects, namely many-phonon SRS, almost twooctave Stokes and anti-Stokes lasing combs, SHG,
