Title:
OPTICAL WAVEGUIDE ELEMENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2021/065624
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
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).
