Abstract

In this paper, wavelength conversion at 1.55 mum telecom window by double-pass cSHG/DFG in zinc is reported. Ti-indiffused, periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) channel waveguides. Dispersion in LN itself is used to compensate wavelength dependent phase shifts of fundamental-, SHG (pump)-, signal-, and idler waves upon reflection.
