ABSTRACT:
An active waveguide device is provided for doubling the frequency of an applied light wave. The device includes first and second optical waveguides which are coupled through a separating gap. The coupling can be precisely adjusted to maximize the doubling efficiency by adjusting the gap dimension. The device is particularly suitable for producing higher frequency blue radiation from lower frequency infrared radiation which is readily produced by semiconductor lasers.
