A specially-designed apodized chirped PPLN based on particular positioning of poled regions within the periods has been realized theoretically and experimentally to demonstrate the reciprocal response in the SHG spectra over a 30-nm bandwidth, for up-chirp and down-chirp directions. The simulation results are compared with another apodized chirped PPLN for which the placement of poled regions is deviated from optimum positions. The average power difference is less than 0.75 dB and the standard deviations of extrema on second harmonic power responses are 1.34 dB and 1.64 dB for two up-chirp and down-chirp directions respectively.
