ABSTRACT:
An optical wavelength converter device of the optical fiber type comprises a core made of a nonlinear optical material and cladding of an amorphous material and surrounding the core, the cladding having a refractive index lower than the refractive index of the core. Another optical wavelength converter device comprises a two- or three-dimensional optical wavelength converter device produced by growing a nonlinear optical material crystal as an optical waveguide on or in an amorphous substrate having a refractive index lower than the refractive index of the nonlinear optical material crystal. Phase matching is achieved between a radiation mode of a wavelength-converted wave in the cladding or the substrate and a nonlinear polarized wave generated by a waveguide mode of first and second fundamental waves in the core or the optical waveguide.
