Violet second harmonic generation in adhered slab waveguide based on periodically poled lithium tantalate

We demonstrated CW SHG at 400 nm in a first-order QPM adhered slab waveguide with a periodically-poled Mg-doped stoichiometric lithium tantalate core. The measured SHG normalized conversion efficiency was 34.7%/W for a 20 mm length.
