    Abstract: An optical modulator includes a substrate having an electro-optic effect, an optical waveguide that is formed in the substrate, and a modulation electrode (not illustrated) for modulating a light wave that propagates through the optical waveguide. In the optical modulator, a light-receiving element is disposed on the substrate, and the light-receiving element includes a light-receiving section that receives a light wave that propagates through the optical waveguide, and the light-receiving section is located on the downstream side of a center of the light-receiving element in a light wave propagating direction.

    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.
