    摘要: In a waveguide path coupling-type photodiode, a semiconductor light absorbing layer and an optical waveguide path core are adjacently arranged. An electrode formed of at least one layer is installed in a boundary part of the semiconductor light absorbing layer and the optical waveguide path core. The electrodes are arranged at an interval of (1/100)λ to λ [λ: wavelength of light transmitted through optical waveguide path core]. At least a part of the electrodes is embedded in the semiconductor light absorbing layer. Embedding depth from a surface of the semiconductor light absorbing layer is a value not more than λ/(2 ns) [ns: refractive index of semiconductor light absorbing layer]. At least one layer of the electrode is constituted of a material which can surface plasmon-induced.

    摘要: A downsized, low-power electro-optical modulator that achieves reducing both of the additional resistance in the modulation portion and the optical loss each caused by electrodes at the same time is provided. The electro-optical modulator includes a rib waveguide formed by stacking a second semiconductor layer 9 having a different conductivity type from a first semiconductor layer 8 on the first semiconductor layer 8 via a dielectric film 11, and the semiconductor layers 8 and 9 are connectable to an external terminal via highly-doped portions 4 and 10, respectively. In a region in the vicinity of contact surfaces of the semiconductor layers 8 and 9 with the dielectric film 11, a free carrier is accumulated, removed, or inverted by an electrical signal from the external terminal, and whereby a concentration of the free carrier in an electric field region of an optical signal is modulated, so that a phase of the optical signal can be modulated. At least one of the semiconductor layers 8 and 9 is wider than the stacked portion. At least one of the highly-doped portions 4 and 10 is formed outside the stacked portion.
