Abstract
An optical device having a periodic inverted domain construction is used for second harmonic generating devices or the like. The optical device comprises a ferroelectric crystal substrate which is provided in this surface with a periodic inverted domain structure consisting of a plurality of parallel inverted domain regions arranged at intervals. The thickness t and width w of the inverted domain regions and the thickness T of the ferroelectric crystal substrate meet the criteria expressed by: t/w.gtoreq.1 and 0.1<t/T.ltoreq.1.
