BaGa4S7 (BGS) and BaGa4Se7 (BGSe) are attractive new nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals notable for the rare combination of wide band gaps (3.54 eV and 2.64 eV), long phonon cut-off wavelengths (13.7 m and 18 m), and relative ease of growth from stoichiometric melts, making them ideal for shifting widely-available 1-micron laser sources deep into the mid-IR. Here we demonstrate seeded HGF growth along crystallographic directions optimized for simplified fabrication and maximum yield of oriented frequency conversion devices, allowing apertures up to 25x25 mm2 and lengths greater than 20 mm.
