The obtained optical power at 461 nm is 76 mW when the power of the 922-nm fundamental light coupled into the waveguide is 248 mW. Although a narrowing of the phase-matching temperature acceptance bandwidth is observed at a high SH power, stable overnight operation is realized by carefully controlling the device temperature within an uncertainty of 0.01 °C. ©2011 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: (190.2620) Harmonic generation and mixing; (130.3730) Lithium niobate; (020.3320) Laser cooling; (130.7405) Wavelength conversion devi
