Popis: We demonstrate highly efficient frequency doubling of a 160 mW-AlGaAs three-section tunable distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) laser diode with real refractive-index-guided structure in a quasi-phase-matched second harmonic generation (QPM-SHG) ridge-type waveguide device. We realized high coupling efficiency of the DBR laser diode and the QPM-SHG waveguide device using a planar-type butt-coupling configuration. High-power SHG blue violet laser was fabricated, whose volume is 0.3 cc. This SHG blue-violet laser satisfied the several specifications for optical disk systems, and the pulsed blue-violet light (410 nm) power of 62 mW was generated.
