Title: Highly efficient second-harmonic generation in buried waveguides formed by annealed and reverse proton exchange in periodically poled lithium niobate. Author: Parameswaran KR, Route RK, Kurz JR, Roussev RV, Fejer MM, Fujimura M. Journal: Opt Lett; 2002 Feb 01; 27(3):179-81. PubMed ID: 18007748. Abstract: Efficient three-wave mixing devices have numerous applications, including wavelength conversion, dispersion compensation, and all-optical switching. Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is a useful diagnostic for near-degenerate operation of these devices. With buried waveguides formed in periodically poled lithium niobate by annealed and reverse proton exchange, we demonstrate what is believed to be the highest normalized conversion efficiency (150%/W cm(2)) for SHG in the 1550-nm communications band reported to date.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
