Provided is an optical switch including a substrate, a first optical waveguide disposed on the substrate and having a conductive portion disposed on one surface thereof, and a second optical waveguide disposed on the substrate being spaced apart from the first optical waveguide and having an electrode portion disposed on one surface thereof. The electrode portion and the conductive portion face each other. The electrode portion controls an optical field between the first optical waveguide and the second optical waveguide.
