Birefringent crystals (BFCs) have been extensively used in imaging spectrometers,laser devices,and optical components.Seeking new BFCs is important for both fundamental research and industrial applications.Employing first-principles density functional theory,we find that LaOBiS2 (space group:P4/nmm) appearing in the parent phase of the recently discovered BiS2-superconductor exhibits superior birefringence with a maximum value of 2.94,which is 13.4 times larger than the extensively used YVO4 (0.22).Furthermore,LaOBiS2 is an indirect semiconductor with a band gap of 0.9 eV,which is suitable for optical applications.The origin of giant inherent birefringence is also discussed.
