Electric-field induced second harmonic generation with a femtosecond Ti:sapphire pump laser in atmospheric air is investigated. Phase matching between fundamental and second harmonic waves is achieved via quasi-phase matching, employing periodic electrode arrangements on printed circuit boards with a total length of about 0.5 m. The weak chromatic dispersion of the atmospheric air enables broadband phase matching conditions and makes this method tailorable for frequency doubling broadband femtosecond laser pulses. A maximum energy of 0.13 nJ is observed in a 20 nm bandwidth around 395 nm.
