We have discussed new optical potentialities in acentric Gd2(MoO4)3 and LaBGeO5 laser crystal-hosts having simultaneously relatively high χ(2) and χ(3) nonlinear susceptibilities. In particular, we show experimental results on efficient multiple Stokes and anti-Stokes stimulated Raman scattering and Raman induced four-wave mixing, as well as second harmonic generation with Cerenkov-type phase matching.
