ABSTRACT:
An optical resonator which is unstable with respect to laser light whose wavelength is to be converted includes a pair of confocal, coaxial curved mirrors. A nonlinear optical medium, e.g., lithium niobate, is disposed between the mirrors. Laser light injected into the optical resonator becomes concentrated in the vicinity of the optical axis, for highly efficient wavelength conversion.
