Particular embodiments of the present disclosure bring an SHG crystal, or other type of wavelength conversion device, into close proximity with a laser source to eliminate the need for coupling optics, reduce the number of package components, and reduce package volume. According to one embodiment of the present disclosure, an optical package is provided comprising a laser source subassembly comprising a laser base and a wavelength conversion device subassembly comprising a converter base. The bonding interface of the laser base is bonded the complementary bonding interface of the converter base such that the laser output face can be proximity-coupled to the converter input face at an predetermined interfacial spacing x. Additional embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
