A method for providing an nonlinear, frequency converting optical QPM waveguide device by growing a first ferroelectric oxide film or layer on a second ferroelectric layer or medium wherein, in first and second embodiments, respectively, the second layer is initially provided with a periodic nonlinear coefficient pattern or a periodic pattern comprising a seed layer. During the growth of the first layer, the periodic pattern formed in the second layer, is replicated, transformed or induced into the first layer resulting in a plurality of substantially rectangular prismatic-shaped domains in the first layer having the periodic nonlinear coefficient pattern status based upon the periodic patterning of the second layer. In a third embodiment, the periodic nonlinear coefficient pattern may be introduced into the first layer after completion of its growth, and the periodic nonlinear coefficient pattern status of the first layer, at the interface between the first and second layers, is transposed or migrated into the second layer forming a plurality of substantially rectangular prismatic-shaped domains in the second layer having the periodic nonlinear coefficient pattern status of the first layer. In the first and second embodiments, the optical QPM waveguide is the first layer and in the third embodiment, the optical QPM waveguide is the second layer.

A microelectronic component comprising a crossover is provided comprising a substrate, a first high T.sub.c superconductor thin film, a second insulating thin film comprising SrTiO.sub.3 ; and a third high T.sub.c superconducting film which has strips which crossover one or more areas of the first superconductor film. An in situ method for depositing all three films on a substrate is provided which does not require annealing steps and which can be opened to the atmosphere between depositions.

A microelectronic component comprising a crossover is provided comprising a substrate, a first high T.sub.c superconductor thin film, a second insulating thin film comprising SrTiO.sub.3 ; and a third high T.sub.c superconducting film which has strips which crossover one or more areas of the first superconductor film. An insitu method for depositing all three films on a substrate is provided which does not require annealing steps. The photolithographic process is used to separately pattern the high T.sub.c superconductor thin films.
