Abstract
An object is to provide, for example, an optical wavelength conversion device capable of highly efficient wavelength conversion on the surface of, or inside, the main body of any of various shapes, such as a bulky shape and a fiber shape. The optical wavelength conversion device includes a main body configured to allow light to propagate therein, and a plurality of crystal regions arranged inside the main body along a propagation direction of the light. The plurality of crystal regions each have a spontaneous polarization oriented along the propagation direction (i.e., spontaneous polarization having a polarization orientation coinciding with the propagation direction).
