Abstract
An object is to provide, for example, a method for manufacturing an optical wavelength conversion device having a structure that enables efficient formation of crystal regions on the surface of, or inside, an amorphous material. An amorphous main body is intermittently irradiated with a first laser beam for generating a high-density excited electron region inside the main body and a second laser beam for heating the high-density excited electron region, with respective focus regions of the first and second laser beams overlapping each other. During the intermittent irradiation with the first and second laser beams, the relative position of the main body and the overlapping focus region of the first and second laser beams are varied. This enables part of the main body where the overlapping focus region moves to serve as a heat source for forming a crystal region.
