We report that Ca3TaAl3Si2O14 is a positive uniaxial crystal and provides second-order frequency conversion. Indeed, we performed direct measurements of phase-matching conditions for second-harmonic generation and sum-frequency generation up to 3.5 µm. The simultaneous fitting of recorded data provided the Sellmeier equations of the two principal refractive indices and the magnitude of the nonlinear coefficient.
