Zusammenfassung: | PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve such problems that in a process of depositing a multilayer film on the surface of a quasi-phase matching (QPM) element in which lithium tantalite (LiTaO3) or lithium niobate (LiNbO3) is used as a base material when green laser light at a wavelength of 532 nm is used, the configuration of the multilayer film itself is conventionally much examined, however, a relation between the multilayer film and the base material is not particularly considered. SOLUTION: In the multilayer coating of a QPM element having lithium metal oxide as a base material, an oxide of the metal constituting the above lithium metal oxide is used for a first layer in contact with the base material. Specifically, the first layer is made of tantalum pentoxide (Ta2O5) when the base material is lithium tantalite (LiTaO3), and the first layer is made of niobium trioxide (Nb2O3) when the base material is lithium niobate (LiNbO3). Thus, a QPM element with high performance can be obtained. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
