Abstract
Frequency doubling of a 680-nm laser diode in periodically poled LiTaO 3 is presented. By selective proton exchange followed by high-voltage pulse application, a second-order periodic domain inversion having uni form periodicity and optimum duty cycle was fabricated over a 10-mm in teraction length in a 200-mu m-thick LiTaO3 substrate. A 340-nm wavele ngth of harmonic ultraviolet light was generated in a single pass thro ugh the domain-inverted structure. (C) 1996 Optical Society of America
