    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical modulator chip configured to optically modulate an optical signal using an electrical signal input thereto; and a relay substrate configured to relay and couple the electrical signal to the optical modulator chip. The optical modulator chip includes a signal electrode and a ground electrode for the electrical signal, formed along a waveguide for the optical signal. One end of the optical modulator chip is arranged to face the relay substrate. An electrode connection portion coupling the electrical signal to the relay substrate by wire is provided at the one end. A distance between a tip of one end of the signal electrode in the electrode connection portion and the end of the optical modulator chip is less than a distance between a tip of an end of the ground electrode in the electrode connection portion and the end of the optical modulator chip.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes a modulating unit, an optical fiber, and a combining unit. The modulating unit outputs first and second optical beams with the electric signal superimposed thereon in a first direction. The optical fiber is placed along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The combining unit combines the first and second optical beams output by the modulating unit and outputs an optical beam obtained by the first and second optical beams being combined to the optical fiber. The combining unit includes a polarized light rotating element and a polarized light combining element. The polarized light rotating element rotates the polarization direction of the first optical beam. The polarized light combining element reflects the first optical beam of which the polarization direction has been rotated and the second optical beam in the second direction, and combines the first and second optical beams reflected in the second direction.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes: a ferroelectric substrate in which an input optical waveguide, first and second optical waveguides, and an output optical waveguide are formed; a first electrode formed in a vicinity of the first optical waveguide and to which a first DC voltage is applied; a second electrode formed in a vicinity of the second optical waveguide and to which a second DC voltage is applied; a third electrode electrically connected to the first electrode and formed on both sides of the second electrode; and a fourth electrode electrically connected to the second electrode and formed on both sides of the first electrode. A first gap between the first electrode and the fourth electrode is approximately the same as a second gap between the second electrode and the third electrode. A gap between the third electrode and the fourth electrode is 1-5 times greater than the first gap.
