The optical device includes a substrate, a first optical waveguide that may be formed in the substrate and may have a bending portion, and a second optical waveguide that intersects with the bending portion of the first optical waveguide, wherein a groove may be formed outside the bending portion of the first optical waveguide in the substrate.
摘要:
Optical waveguides (A) and (B) of a Mach-Zehnder modulator is normally formed on a −Z plane as an electric polarization non-inversion area. However, when the signal electrode 11 and the ground electrode 10 are provided asymmetrically on two waveguides, chirp occurs in output light, which is undesired. Therefore, these electrodes are provided symmetrically about the two waveguides. To effectively perform optical modulation, a part of the substrate in which an optical waveguide exists is to be electric polarization-inverted. As a result of the electric polarization inversion the optical waveguide is on the +Z plane. However, electric charge is accumulated on the +Z plane from unstable spontaneous electric polarization of an electric polarization inversion area, and has undesired influence on the performance of the optical modulator. Therefore, a conductive amorphous layer is formed on the surface of the electric polarization inversion area.

A polarization conversion device converts a polarization state of a light which is input to a first waveguide, that is, TE/TM mode of the light, to output it from the first waveguide. The polarization conversion device includes: a mode converter that performs the inter-conversion of TE/TM modes of the light which is input to the first waveguide; and a polarization separator that receives the light passed through the mode converter and separates the received light into a first light, TE/TM of which mode has been converted by the mode converter and a second light, TE/TM of which mode has not been converted, to output the first light to the first waveguide.
