We report on the second harmonic generation at ~532 nm of optical waveguides in Nd:GdCOB produced by swift carbon ion irradiation. The fabricated waveguide shows good guiding property. Under pump of ~1064-nm fundamental light, the optical conversion efficiency of the frequency doubling is 0.48% W−1 and 6.8% W−1 for continuous wave and pulsed laser beams, respectively.
