Abstract :
Periodic poling of z-cut lithium niobate is reliably achieved in 0.2 mm thick samples, patterned with photoresist on one face and subjected to pulsed electric fields via liquid electrodes. The acceptance bandwidth for third order second-harmonic generation reveals that the full 3.3 mm length contributes to the conversion
