    摘要: A semiconductor optical switch and an optical switch array for use in an optical logic circuit, photonic switching, OEIC, etc., wherein a light amplifying means (102) is provided on a bypass waveguide (101) that connects a plurality of optical waveguides (109), thereby enabling improvement of the light crosstalk and the light propagation loss. In particular, ac­cording to the arrangement of the present invention that a light amplifying means (102) is provided in addition to a de­flecting portion (110), no noise component is amplified and therefore the SN ratio is markedly increased.

    摘要: An optical switch has a semiconductor waveguide region (2) formed on a substrate (1), with a cladding region (3) on a projection of the waveguide region (2). By controlling the fields applied to electrodes (4, 5, 6) on the substrate (1), the waveguide region (2), and the cladding region (3), the injection and extraction of carriers into and from the waveguide region can be controlled. It is found that the carriers can be removed rapidly through the electrodes (4, 5, 6) and this causes the switch to turn off very rapidly.

    摘要: An optical device has multilayer films (1) formed by periodically laminating a number of layers each comprising at least two kinds of optical crystal thin films (f n , g n ) having different refractive indices onto a substrate (3). The multilayer films (1) include a semiconductor material having a large non-linear optical coefficient as a composing material and have the artificial optical anisotropy. Since the multilayer films (1) of the optical device have the large non-­linear coefficient and the optical anisotropy, the non-­linear phenomenon such as second-harmonic generation or the like can be efficiently caused.

    摘要: An optical device having a material (21) exhibi­tive of an optical rectification effect is disclosed. The optical device utilizes direct current polariza­tion which is induced in the material (21) by control light (25). The induction of the direct current polarization in the material by the control light(25) changes the refractive index and absorption spectrum of the material (21). This is based on the so-called electrooptic effect and Franz-Keldysh effect. The present invention provides the optical device accord­ing to which external incident light (23) can be modu­lated at high speed with the control light (25) by utilizing the change of the refractive index or the change of the absorption spectrum.
