We investigate efficient second harmonic generation in reverse proton exchanged Lithium Niobate waveguides. In z-cut crystals, the resulting buried and surface guides support TM and TE polarizations, respectively, and are coupled through the d 31 nonlinear element. Numerically estimated conversion efficiencies in planar structures operating at 1.32microm reach 90% in 2cm or a normalized 14% microm/Wcm.
