    Abstract: To detect deterioration of an SOA and perform feedback control to keep light intensity of output light constant in a configuration in which a DFB laser, an EA modulator, and the SOA are monolithically integrated. A semiconductor optical integrated element includes: a DFB laser that outputs continuous light; an EA modulator that modulates the continuous light; a first multimode interference coupler that inputs the modulated light from a first input port, divides the modulated light, and outputs the divided modulated light from two or more output ports; semiconductor optical amplifiers that are connected to respective output ports of the first multimode interference coupler and amplify each of the divided modulated light; a second multimode interference coupler that has input ports connected to respective outputs of the semiconductor optical amplifiers, multiplexes the amplified modulated light, and outputs the multiplexed modulated light from a first output port; and a monitoring waveguide.

    Abstract: In the adjustment method of optical coupling for an optical integrated circuit according to the present disclosure, the optimal adjustment position of optical coupling is determined on the basis of, for example, a sum of a plurality of photocurrents at electrodes on arm waveguides respectively formed on the plurality of MZIs in the polarization-multiplexing IQ modulator. According to the maximum value of the sum of the plurality of photocurrents, the light condensing spot position is adjusted to the center position of the end face core of the optical waveguide of the integrated chip. Typically, the light condensing spot position is adjusted to the center of the end face core by displacing the two input lenses.
