摘要
We have developed a compact light source at 461 nm using a single-pass periodically poled LiNbO3 waveguide for second-harmonic (SH) generation. The obtained optical power at 461 nm is 76 mW when the power of the 922-nm fundamental light coupled into the waveguide is 248 mW. Although a narrowing of the phase-matching temperature acceptance bandwidth is observed at a high SH power, stable overnight operation is realized by carefully controlling the device temperature within an uncertainty of 0.01 degrees C.
