In the crystallographic literature, there is an ever-increasing number of publications on crystals that arereferred to as ‘new non-linear optical materials’, many of them reporting salts of amino acids. However,the term NLO material is used improperly in most cases. In fact, the establishment of any crystal speciesas such a material requires several experimental and computational procedures, which are seldomsatisfied when characterizing a supposedly new species. Here, some frequent hazards and problems areaddressed and observations of papers reporting amino acid compounds as supposedly new NLOmaterials are made.
