High conversion efficiency single-pass second harmonic generation in a zinc-diffused periodically poled lithium niobate waveguide

We report a modified technique for the fabrication of zinc-diffused channel waveguides using z-cut electric-field periodically poled LiNbO3. Unlike previous work, the diffusion was carried out using metallic zinc at atmospheric pressure. By optimizing the thermal diffusion parameters, channel wavegu...
