  • Abstract
    Summary form only given. Periodically poled ferroelectric materials have been amply shown to be practical to fabricate, and several varieties of crystals are now commercially available. In this talk, we will discuss efforts at Lightwave Electronics to apply periodically poled materials in commercial laser devices. Our commercialisation efforts have focused on an infrared single-frequency optical parametric oscillator source, based on (congruent) periodically poled LiNbO/sub 3/, resonantly pumped at 1064nm.
