A simple fabrication method is an important requirement for such sources. Here, we present a single photon source based on diced ridge waveguides in titanium indiffused LiNbO<jats:sub>3</jats:sub>. These waveguides can be easily fabricated by combining planar titanium in-diffusion without lithographic patterning and easy-to-handle precision dicing. Such devices have the potential to generate high single photon rates because ridge structures are typically less prone to the photorefractive effect. We achieve waveguide propagation losses &lt;0.4dBcm and a SHG conversion efficiency of about 81%Wcm<jats:sup>2</jats:sup>.
