Enhancing broadband second harmonic generation in a thin film lithium niobate racetrack resonator with tunable-coupling

Olivia Hefti, Jean-Etienne Tremblay, Andrea Volpini +7

Second harmonic generation in thin film periodically poled lithium niobate (PPLN) is constrained by an efficiency-bandwidth trade-off and fabrication-sensitive scaling. We demonstr…
