Abstract
Optical Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) has been reported in planar waveguides, using waveguide dispersion to phase match the fundamental and Second Harmonic (SH) modes1-6. The optimum waveguide dispersion is generally achieved by the correct choice of waveguide dimensions. In practice however the inability to maintain uniform guide dimensions has limited the useful interaction length for SHG to less than 2 cms.
