Abstract
Frequency conversion based on χ(2) nonlinear optical interactions can be made very efficient in waveguide structures. Fabrication imperfections remain very often a limiting factor. They can induce strong distortions in the spectral shape and lower the efficiency. To overcome these imperfections a post-trimming method based on a cascade of ten micro-heaters on top of the waveguide along the interaction length is demonstrated. As an example, the second harmonic generation in a Ti-indiffused waveguide in periodically poled LiNbO3 is investigated. A tailoring of the spectral characteristics of the phase-matching curves could be successfully demonstrated.
