Abstract
A quasi-phase matching optical waveguide for producing a second harmonic of an internally propagated polarized laser beam having a wavelength in the range of from 700 to 1300 nm is disclosed. The waveguide is comprised of at least one array of laterally spaced transparent electrodes in direct contact with a transmission medium containing similarly polar aligned organic molecular dipoles in overlying areas. The transparent electrodes and overlying areas of the transmission medium are each of the same width and spacing.
