Abstract: The research and development of laser-nonlinear multi-functional crystals (self-frequency doubling crystals) were reviewed. The structures, growth and self-frequency doubling properties of the several primary self-frequency doubling crystal involved Nd:Mg:LiNbO3(NMLN), NdxY1-x Al3 (BO3)4(NYAB),Cr:KTP, LaBGeO5:Nd3+, β-Gd2(MoO4)3:Nd3+(GMO:Nd3+), Nd:GdCa4O (BO3)3, Yb:GdCa4O(BO3)3, Nd:YCa4O(BO3)3, Yb:YCa4O(BO3)3, Yb:BaCaBO3F were system- atically summarized. The future development of the self-frequency doubling crystal was also suggested.

Key words: laser, nonlinear optical, multi-functional crystal, self-frequency doubling
