A wavelength conversion element includes a core formed of a ferroelectric crystal having a periodically poled structure in which first and second domains having mutually inverted directions of spontaneous polarization are alternately aligned side by side, and a cladding covering all side surfaces of the core along a light propagation direction and having a uniform refractive index. Boundary surfaces of the first and second domains are arranged in a non-parallel manner with respect to the light propagation direction. |
