Abstract: Provided is an optical modulator which is small in optical loss, is small in a size, and is low in required voltage and is operable to perform high-speed operation. The optical phase modulator 100 comprises a rib-type waveguide structure 110 including: a PN junction 106 which is formed of Si and is formed in a lateral direction on a substrate; and an Si1-xGex layer 108 which is constituted of at least one layer and is doped with an impurity to a p-type and is superposed on the PN junction 106 so as to be electrically connected to the PN junction 106. The rib-type waveguide structure 110 has a substantially uniform structure along a light propagation direction, and in a direction parallel with the substrate and perpendicular to the light propagation direction, a position of a junction interface 106a of the PN junction 106 is offset from a center of the Si1-xGex layer 108.

Abstract: Provided is a SIS-type electro-optic modulator capable of realizing highly efficient optical coupling with a rib-type Si waveguide, improving modulation efficiency, realizing reduction of electric capacity and lead-out resistance in stacked semiconductor layers. The modulator includes a SIS junction constituted by first and second semiconductor layers having different type of conductivity and a dielectric layer interposed therebetween, wherein an electrical signal from electrodes coupled to the first and second semiconductor layers causes free carriers accumulate, deplete or invert on both sides of the dielectric layer, thereby modulating a free carrier concentration felt by an optical signal electric filed, light having a polarization component orthogonal to the width direction of the SIS junction is incident on the dielectric layer, and the width of the SIS junction is λ/neff or less (λ is the wavelength of the incident light and neff is an effective refractive index of the modulator to the incident light).

Abstract: An electro-optic device includes a first semiconductor layer including the rib-type waveguide, which includes a rib part and a first slab part, which extends in a first direction from the rib part; a dielectric layer, which is formed on the rib part; a second semiconductor layer, which extends in a second direction, which is opposite to the first direction, from an upper surface of the dielectric layer; a first high-concentration impurity region, which is formed in the first semiconductor layer to be in contact with the first slab part on the first direction side; and a second high-concentration impurity region, which is formed in a region of the second semiconductor layer on the second direction side. The second high-concentration impurity region is formed in a region other than a region overlapping the first semiconductor layer in a lamination direction.
