    Abstract: An optical module includes a substrate, a package, and a flexible substrate. The substrate is provided with an electrode. The package includes a housing fixed to the substrate, a receiving unit that optically demodulates a received optical signal to convert the optical signal into a reception electrical signal, an output terminal that is provided on a surface of the housing and outputs the reception electrical signal, an input terminal that is provided at a height from the substrate different from a height of the output terminal and receives a transmission electrical signal, and a transmitting unit that optically modulates the transmission electrical signal received from the input terminal and transmits an optical signal resulting from optical modulation. A flexible substrate has flexibility and includes a signal electrode that connects one of the output terminal and the input terminal to the electrode arranged on the substrate.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical modulator chip configured to optically modulate an optical signal using an electrical signal input thereto; and a relay substrate configured to relay and couple the electrical signal to the optical modulator chip. The optical modulator chip includes a signal electrode and a ground electrode for the electrical signal, formed along a waveguide for the optical signal. One end of the optical modulator chip is arranged to face the relay substrate. An electrode connection portion coupling the electrical signal to the relay substrate by wire is provided at the one end. A distance between a tip of one end of the signal electrode in the electrode connection portion and the end of the optical modulator chip is less than a distance between a tip of an end of the ground electrode in the electrode connection portion and the end of the optical modulator chip.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes a package that accommodates therein a first substrate and a second substrate different from the first substrate, and outside the package, a flexible circuit board. The first substrate has plural optical modulating units disposed thereon in parallel and each including a Mach-Zehnder optical waveguide. Plural first signal line paths corresponding to the optical modulating units are disposed on the second substrate. Plural second signal line paths corresponding to the optical modulating units are disposed on the flexible circuit board. Electrical lengths of the second signal line paths are different from one another. Electrical lengths of signal paths that span from input ends of the second signal line paths corresponding to the optical modulating units to base points on signal electrodes, via the first signal line paths, are equal to one another.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes: a substrate that having an optical waveguide that includes a split section that splits light into two light waves, a pair of arms through which the light waves propagate, and a combining section that combines the light waves from the pair of arms with each other; and an electrode that overlaps part of the optical waveguide and generates an electric field by a voltage applied to the electrode. The optical waveguide has a narrow portion that is narrower than another portion of the optical waveguide and is arranged so that the electrode does not overlap with the narrow portion.
