    摘要: In the adjustment method of optical coupling for an optical integrated circuit according to the present disclosure, the optimal adjustment position of optical coupling is determined on the basis of, for example, a sum of a plurality of photocurrents at electrodes on arm waveguides respectively formed on the plurality of MZIs in the polarization-multiplexing IQ modulator. According to the maximum value of the sum of the plurality of photocurrents, the light condensing spot position is adjusted to the center position of the end face core of the optical waveguide of the integrated chip. Typically, the light condensing spot position is adjusted to the center of the end face core by displacing the two input lenses.

    摘要: A Mach-Zehnder modulator is enabled to perform high-speed modulation operation by reducing RF loss of a high-frequency wiring formed on an optical waveguide without deteriorating optical characteristics of branching and multiplexing optical circuits. The Mach-Zehnder modulator includes a Mach-Zehnder (MZ) optical waveguide including two arm waveguides, a 1×2 multimode interference coupler composed of a semiconductor that splits and distributes input light to the two arm waveguides, a 2×1 multimode interference coupler composed of a semiconductor that multiplexes light from the two arm waveguides, and phase modulation means for giving a phase difference to the light that propagates through the two arm waveguides, wherein the 1×2 multimode interference coupler and the 2×1 multimode interference coupler are formed in a high-mesa structure, and higher mode light radiation means for radiating higher mode light is connected to only the 2×1 multimode interference coupler among the two multimode interference couplers.

    摘要: This invention provides a high-frequency line adopting a structure to suppress an impedance variation and occurrence of an excessive power loss in high-frequency wiring having intersection with an optical waveguide. A high-frequency line is a microstrip line which has a basic configuration of stacking a ground electrode, a dielectric layer, and a signal electrode in this order on a SI-InP substrate. In addition, as shown in a transverse sectional view, an optical waveguide core made of InP-based semiconductor intersects with the high-frequency line in a crossing manner. A width of the signal electrode is partially increased in a certain region covering the intersection with the optical waveguide along a propagating direction of the high-frequency line. In the microstrip line, the width of the signal electrode is partially increased from w1 to w2, and characteristic impedance is thus reduced as compared to one with the uniform width w1.
