Abstract
A wavelength conversion element with a Quasi-Phase Matching structure which can suppress the ripples of fluctuation pulse waveforms of a change efficiency in a frequency band of the waveform conversion, without controlling the positions and dimensions of the polarization regions at high precision. The wavelength conversion element of the present invention has a plurality of first and second polarization regions, formed so that dielectric polarizations are inverted from each other, and an optical wave guide which is formed so as to pass through the first and second polarization regions, in a nonlinear optical substrate. And an absolute value of the wavelength conversion efficiency is set by adjusting the positional coordinates of the first and second polarization regions in a light traveling direction.
