Abstract:
The present invention provides a polarization dependency-free, gain-saturated high function semiconductor optical amplifier and optical module at industrially low cost. The gist of the present invention is to structurally separate the optical signal propagating waveguide from another optical waveguide which serves as a lasing optical cavity for optical amplification in such a manner that the two optical waveguides are formed in the same plane but not parallel to each other.
