Abstract: A transmission line has a signal electrode formed on one surface of a flexible printed circuit, and a ground electrode formed on the other surface of the flexible printed circuit. A connection terminal has signal terminals formed on both the surfaces of the flexible printed circuit and electrically connected to each other through a via hole, and ground terminals formed on both the surfaces of the flexible printed circuit and electrically connected to each other through the via hole. The signal terminal on the surface, on which the ground electrode is formed, is formed such that at least a width in an end portion on the transmission line side is narrower than a width of a part of the signal terminal on the surface, on which the signal electrode is formed, to be at the same position when the flexible printed circuit is seen in a plan view.

Abstract: It is possible to provide an optical modulator in which a transmission loss from a driver circuit element to a modulation substrate is reduced. An optical modulator includes a modulation substrate (1) that includes an optical waveguide (200) and a modulation electrode (10) for modulating a light wave propagating through the optical waveguide, a driver circuit element (2) that generates a modulation signal to be applied to the modulation electrode (10), and a case (3) that accommodates the modulation substrate (1) and the driver circuit element (2), in which an output terminal (20′) that outputs the modulation signal is provided on an upper surface side of the driver circuit element (2), and a wiring substrate (4) including a wiring that electrically connects the output terminal (20′) and the modulation electrode (10) is disposed above the driver circuit element (2) and the modulation substrate (1) to straddle both the driver circuit element (2) and the modulation substrate (1).

Abstract: An optical modulator includes a substrate, an optical waveguide, a control electrode applying a high frequency signal in order to modulate light waves propagating through the optical waveguide, and a relay substrate provided with a relay line to transfer the high frequency signal to the control electrode. The control electrode and the relay line together have a coplanar line structure inclusive of at least electrical connection portions of both the control electrode and the relay line. The control electrode includes an electrical connection portion and a routing portion positioned between the electrical connection portion and an active portion applying an electrical field to the optical waveguide. The routing portion has a coplanar line structure. A distance between ground electrodes sandwiching a signal electrode in the electrical connection portion of the control electrode is substantially equal to a distance between ground electrodes sandwiching a signal electrode of the routing portion.

Abstract: A method of roughening the upper surface of the slab waveguide includes a method of locally forming roughness using an electron beam and a method of roughening the upper surface via etching. As an etching condition for the rough surface, processing is performed under a condition in which roughness is generated compared to a processing condition for the rib top portion. Particularly, since the surface can be simply locally roughened by etching, the rough surface can be formed much more simply than that of the unnecessary light beam removing unit in Patent Literature No. 1. Roughness of the rough surface is preferably 10 nm or larger in arithmetic average roughness Ra. Roughness of an upper surface of the rib type optical waveguide is normally set to 1 nm or less

Abstract: The purpose of the present invention is to provide an optical modulator in which propagation loss related to transmission of a high-frequency signal is reduced. An optical modulator, in which an electro-optical conversion element E/OC and a driver circuit DRV for driving the electro-optical conversion element are housed in the same case CA, includes: a multiplexer MUX that converts an input modulation signal, which is input from an outside of the case, into an output modulation signal having a higher frequency than the input modulation signal, and supplies the output modulation signal to the driver circuit, in which the multiplexer is housed in the case CA.
