Abstract

An optical device includes, a first Mach-Zehnder modulator (105, 106) that produces a first output and a second Mach-Zehnder modulator (205, 206) which produces a second output. A splitter (212 )couples the first and second Mach-Zehnder modulators. A combiner (213) combines the first and second outputs. A phase shifter (107, 207) is coupled to the first and second Mach-Zehnder modulators. The first Mach-Zehnder modulator, second Mach-Zehnder modulator, splitter, combiner and the phase shifter are each formed as part of a single chip made of electro-optical material. Such two similar optical device integrated together with polarization combiner provide a two-polarization performance.
