ABSTRACT:
An optical frequency converter and method of making same is disclosed. The converter includes a nonlinear optical support having a homogeneous periodically domain reversed portion and an optical waveguide which traverses the surface of the support. At least a segment of the waveguide intersects the homogeneous periodically domain reversed portion of the support to achieve a quasi phase-matched nonlinear optical frequency conversion interaction. The domain reversed portion is selected to be compositionally indistinguishable from the remainder of the waveguide.
