    Abstract: An optical device includes a plurality of first Si waveguides that split and output an optical signal received from an input unit, plurality of LN waveguides that are included in a LN modulator and that transmit the optical signals that are split and output by the first Si waveguides, and a plurality of second Si waveguides that multiplex and output the associated optical signals that are output from the plurality of respective LN waveguides. The device includes an output unit that outputs the optical signal multiplexed by the second Si waveguides, and a plurality of Mach-Zehnder interferometers disposed on each of waveguides connected by the first Si waveguides, the LN waveguides, and the second Si waveguides, respectively. When there are differences among waveguide lengths of the LN waveguides, the device is configured such that the optical path lengths of the waveguides for the respective Mach-Zehnder interferometers are equalized.

    Abstract: An optical transmission device includes a substrate, a waveguide, a signal wire, a ground wire, and a first stub wire. The waveguide is provided on the substrate and transmits an optical signal. The signal wire and the ground wire are disposed on the substrate along the waveguide and include, at end portions, bonding portions electrically connected to an external substrate by wires. The first stub wires are connected to the end portions of the ground wires. The distance between the signal wire and the first stub wire is shorter than the distance between the signal wire and the ground wire.

    Abstract: An optical transmission device has a modulator, a first terminal groove, and relay groove. The modulator has a groove on a waveguide formed on a substrate. EO polymer is placed in the groove in the modulator. The modulator modulates light propagated through the waveguide by changing the phase of the light propagated through the waveguide through change of the refractive index of the EO polymer placed in the groove in the modulator by means of an electric signal. The first terminal groove is formed on the substrate and has a width larger than a width of the groove in the modulator. The relay groove is formed on the substrate and communicates with the groove in the modulator and the first terminal groove. Furthermore, the EO polymer is placed in the relay groove and the first terminal groove.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes a first coupler that branches an input light into two and outputs a first output light and a second output light; a first Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) that modulates the intensity of the first output light from the first coupler and outputs a third output light; a second MZI that modulates the intensity of the second output light from the first coupler and outputs a fourth output light; a second coupler that combines the third output light from the first MZI and the fourth output light from the second MZI, branches a combined light into two, and outputs a fifth output light and a sixth output light. The interaction length of a branch of the first coupler and that of the second coupler are set such that the wavelength dependence of the splitting ratio of the first coupler is inversely related to that of the second coupler.
