Due to the pronounced anisotropic response circularly polarized light, chiral hybrid organic-inorganic metal halides have been regarded as promising candidates for application in nonlinear chiroptics, especially second-harmonic generation circular dichroism (SHG-CD) effect. However, designing novel lead-free with large anisotropy factors and high laser-induced damage thresholds (LDT) of SHG-CD remains challenging. Herein, we develop first germanium halide, (R/S-NEA)3 Ge2 I7 ⋅H2 O (R/S-NGI), systematically investigated its linear chiroptical properties. S-NGI R-NGI exhibit (gSHG-CD ) 0.45 0.48, respectively, along a LDT 38.46 GW/cm2 ; these were highest values among reported halides. Moreover, effective second-order optical coefficient could reach up 0.86 pm/V, which was 2.9 times higher than that commercial Y-cut quartz.
