ABSTRACT:
An optical waveguide device is disclosed which comprises a KTiOPO.sub.4 single crystal substrate and an amorphous optical waveguide formed of Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 or Ta.sub.2 O.sub.5 doped with TiO.sub.2. A second harmonic generator device in the form of the Cerenkov radiation using the optical waveguide has high SHG efficiency. Since the Cerenkov angle can be made small by optimizing the dimensions, the spread angle of the SHG light can be made small.
