Respectfully, the trend in science communication has shifted away from (mis)representing complex physics as magic. Nonlinear crystals are key to the world of lasers and optics, to be sure. Not by nature of being magic crystals, but by nature of their physical properties and crystal structure.

Beautiful crystals enable amazing laser science! For a quick understanding of the processes involved, Coherent Corp. linked a nice summary in the article. Also, Rüdiger Paschotta provides wonderful explanations. https://www.rp-photonics.com/nonlinear_frequency_conversion.html And of course, if you want to really understand, there's always the amazing "Nonlinear Optics" book by Robert Boyd.
