Abstract
A wavelength converter structure according to one aspect of the present invention comprises a ferroelectric substrate, a ridge positioned on the ferroelectric substrate, a plurality of first domains positioned in the ridge and a plurality of second domains interleaved between the first domains in the ridge. The first domains have a first polarization direction and the second domains have a second polarization direction opposite to the first polarization direction. The refraction index of the ferroelectric substrate is different from the refraction index of the ridge. The ridge may include a rectangular portion, a taper portion, or a taper portion and a rectangular portion connected to the taper portion.
