Abstract
KTP crystals, characterised by superior properties, are used widely in nonlinear optics, in particular for second harmonic generation. Also, owing to easy fabrication technology of low loss optical waveguides (~1dB/cm), the KTP crystals are used for the fabrication of integrated optical elements [1]. The important advantage of waveguides in KTP (for example, in comparison with that in the more widely used Ti:LiNbO3) is the high optical damage resistance, up to 0.9W more light power in visible range [2].
