Abstract
We recently fabricated a large-aperture quasi-phase matching stack of 53 GaAs plates using the room-temperature bonding. Although 29 times higher second-harmonic power was obtained than from a 9-plate stacked device, its surface profile was degraded and the positions with high transmittance were limited. By putting the GaAs plates on YAG crystals polished to laser grade instead of directly putting on metallic stages, we confirmed that the surface flatness as well as the transmittance were improved. We are now developing additional processes, which we expect realizes 100-plate or more stacked QPM structures with low loss.
