  • Abstract
    Quasi-phasematched second order nonlinear optical interactions in periodically poled Ti:LiNbO3 channel waveguides, directional couplers and waveguide arrays are exploited to develop efficient all-optical wavelength converters, parametric amplifiers, time division (de-)multiplexers, and space-, phase-, and polarisation-switches.
