摘要: In an optical waveguide element, performance deterioration due to recoupling of unnecessary light leaking from an optical waveguide with the optical waveguide is prevented. An optical waveguide element includes an optical substrate on which an optical waveguide is formed, and a support substrate that is bonded to the optical substrate, on a bonded surface of the support substrate bonded to the optical substrate, a recess portion along the optical waveguide on the optical substrate is formed directly under the optical waveguide, a portion of the support substrate from an upper surface of the support substrate to at least a depth of a bottom surface of the recess portion has a refractive index higher than a substrate refractive index of the optical substrate, and the recess portion is filled with a substance having a refractive index lower than the substrate refractive index.

摘要: Provided is an optical waveguide element that prevents leaked light generated at a forking section from entering a downstream optical waveguide such as another forking section, thereby affording minimal degradation of optical characteristics. The optical waveguide is characterized in that: at least one of two fork waveguides (20a, 20b) forking from a first forking section (20) comprises a second forking section (21, 22); slab waveguides (3c-1 to 3c-3) are formed between the two fork waveguides; and between the first forking section and the second forking section, slits (41, 42) are formed that partition the slab waveguides into a first slab waveguide area (3c-1) close to the first forking section and second slab waveguide areas (3c-2, 3c-3) close to the second forking section(s).

摘要: An optical waveguide element includes a substrate and an optical waveguide that is disposed on the substrate. The optical waveguide has an effective refractive index change portion in which an effective refractive index of the optical waveguide related to a fundamental mode A parallel to a plane of polarization of a light wave propagated through the optical waveguide changes according to propagation of the light wave. In the effective refractive index change portion, a cross-sectional shape of the optical waveguide which is perpendicular to a propagation direction of the light wave is set such that the effective refractive index of the optical waveguide related to the fundamental mode A is higher than an effective refractive index of the optical waveguide related to another fundamental mode B perpendicular to the fundamental mode A.

摘要: An optical waveguide element includes: a substrate on which an optical waveguide is formed; and an electrode that is formed on the substrate and controls a light wave propagating through the optical waveguide. The optical waveguide includes a protruding portion extending on the substrate, and the electrode includes a base layer made of Nb, and an upper layer formed on the base layer, the base layer being formed between the substrate and the upper layer. The occurrence of loss in propagating light is effectively suppressed due to the existence of the electrode that controls the propagating light in the optical waveguide element using the protruding optical waveguide

摘要: An optical waveguide element includes a substrate, an optical waveguide disposed inside the substrate or on the substrate, and an electrode provided along the optical waveguide, working on the optical waveguide to generate a phase change in a light wave propagating through the optical waveguide. The electrode is a traveling-wave electrode. In a modulation section where the light wave is controlled by the electrode, the electrode and the optical waveguide are configured so that the phase change generated in a first modulation section located within a predetermined distance range from a downstream side end portion along a propagation direction of a traveling wave of an electrical signal propagating through the electrode has a sign opposite to a sign of the phase change generated in a second modulation section located within a predetermined distance range from an input end of the electrical signal on an upstream side along the propagation direction.
