Abstract
Microresonators facilitate enhanced light-matter interactions within a limited space, showing great promise for nonlinear optics. Here, we demonstrate a high-quality (Q) factor Fabry-Perot microresonator (FPR) for second harmonic generation (SHG) on an x-cut thin film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform. The FPR exhibits Q factors of Qpump = 1.09 × 105 and QSH = 1.15 × 104 at the 1560 nm pump wavelength and 780 nm second harmonic wavelength, respectively. Under low pump power, a normalized SHG efficiency of 158.5 ± 18.5%/W is attained. We experimentally verify that increased temperatures mitigate photorefractive effects that degrade SHG performance. This work highlights the immense capabilities of one-dimensional planar optical waveguide resonators for efficient on-chip nonlinear wavelength conversion.
