Therefore, it is extremely difficult to excite only a single mode from the outside in the multimode waveguide, and there is a problem that the tolerance is very narrow.

- the electric field distribution of light propagating through the waveguide is determined by the refractive index, shape, and size of the waveguide. If the shape of the waveguide is set to be about the same as the wavelength of light, the distribution of the electric field propagating through the waveguide will be discrete and can be separated into the transverse mode.
- a waveguide when the shape of the waveguide is reduced and only one transverse mode can exist is called a single mode waveguide.
- a case in which two or more transverse modes can exist in a waveguide is called a multi-mode waveguide.
- the case where the propagation of light becomes difficult due to the small waveguide size is called the cut-off state.
- the single mode condition is a condition in which the optical waveguide is cut off with respect to the multimode, and only single mode guided light is guided in the optical waveguide.
- the reason why an optical waveguide device is a single mode waveguide is mainly due to a coupling problem and characteristics of the waveguide device.
- the effect of the multimode waveguide on the device characteristics is due to the existence of a plurality of guided lights (multimode) having different propagation constants in the waveguide.
- multimode guided lights
- the guided light is controlled in some way, if there are a plurality of light having a plurality of propagation constants, each effect has a different effect, and the effect is reduced.
- the conversion The rate greatly decreases, and the effect also decreases in the case of a switch that uses the electro-optical effect, so that the SZN ratio of the switching characteristics greatly decreases.
- the device characteristics are improved by limiting the propagating light to one in single mode propagation.
- single mode waveguides are not an absolute requirement. If it is possible to selectively excite a single mode even in a multimode waveguide, only light having one propagation constant will be guided similarly to a single mode waveguide, so that deterioration of device characteristics can be prevented. . In addition, since the orthogonal relationship is established, light is not converted from single mode to multimode in the waveguide unless there is perturbation or the like.
- the biggest disadvantage of multimode waveguides is the problem of coupling. When light enters the optical waveguide, the guided light is excited by condensing light by a lens or coupling by a fiber. If the electric field distribution of the waveguide and the incident light match, the guided light can be excited with high efficiency. Even in a multimode waveguide, only the single mode can be selectively excited by externally exciting an electric field distribution that is exactly the same as the single mode electric field distribution.
- the optical waveguide using diffusion such as proton exchange or Ti diffusion which is generally used, has a graded refractive index distribution, and has a structure having a refractive index distribution that is asymmetric in the depth direction. is there. For this reason, the waveguide mode also has a complicated asymmetric structure, which makes single-mode excitation in a multimode waveguide more difficult.
- the waveguide guides only a single mode to these lights. It is designed to have the structure of the condition.
- waveguides of light having greatly different wavelengths are required, and light having a short wavelength is required as incident light, deterioration of device characteristics becomes a problem.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a configuration of the optical waveguide device according to the first embodiment.
- the optical waveguide device 1 0 0 it has a structure in which L i N b O 3 proton exchange on the substrate 1 0 1 consisting of L i N B_ ⁇ 3 waveguiding layer 1 0 2 made is formed.
- Two recesses 104 are formed in the waveguide layer 102, and a ridge waveguide (optical waveguide) 103 sandwiched between these recesses 104 is formed.
- a slab waveguide 105 is formed outside the two concave portions 104. That is, the waveguide layer 102 has a configuration in which the slab waveguide 105 is formed on both sides of the ridge waveguide 103 via the recess 104.
- a periodic domain-inverted structure 106 is formed in the ridge waveguide 103. Since a proton exchange waveguide structure without annealing is used, the refractive index distribution in the depth direction is step-like.
- the waveguide layer 102 of the optical waveguide device 100 having such a configuration can selectively excite single-mode guided light even in a multi-mode waveguide structure.
- the ridge waveguide 1 0 3, as wavelength 1. 5 6 m band light can be guided ridge waveguide width E of 6 xm, depth d 2 to 5 m of the waveguide layer, the depth of the recess It is made a d 3 and 2 m.
- the waveguide layer 102 was in a single mode condition with respect to light having a wavelength of 1.56 m.
- infrared light having a wavelength of 0.78 is condensed by a condensing optical system such as a lens.
- a coupling experiment was performed with the light incident on the waveguide layer 102.
- the waveguide layer 102 has a second-order transverse mode multi-condition for light having a wavelength of 0.78 m (first- and second-order multimodes other than the single mode can propagate).
- first- and second-order multimodes other than the single mode can propagate first- and second-order multimodes other than the single mode can propagate.
- this coupling experiment it was found that the light coupled to the waveguide layer 102 was all single-mode, and that single-mode light could be selectively excited in spite of multimode conditions. . This reason was analyzed based on the mode profile. The reason will be described below.
- FIG. 2A, FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C are schematic diagrams showing the electric field distribution on the incident end face of the optical waveguide device according to the first embodiment.
- the modes of the light propagating in the waveguide layer 102 are analyzed from the waveguide shape, the modes having three types of electric field distribution are excited as shown in FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2C.
- Figure 2A shows the 0th-order mode (single mode)
- Figure 2B shows the first-order mode
- Figure 2C shows the secondary-mode electric field distribution.
- the electric field 107 greatly seeps into the waveguide layer below the concave portion 104.
- the multi-mode electric field 107 is absorbed in the slab waveguide 105 formed outside the concave portion.
- the propagation loss of the waveguide layer 102 was significantly increased. Since the effective refractive index of the slab waveguide 105 is larger than that of the ridge waveguide 103, the light that has permeated the slab waveguide 105 is immediately absorbed by the slab waveguide 105 and guided. Wave loss results. That is, in the waveguide layer 102 of the first embodiment, although the multimode exists, the propagation loss is very large and it is hardly excited. When light is incident on the waveguide layer 102, multimode light is emitted at a coupling portion with the incident light.
- the single mode is selectively excited under the condition that the coupling efficiency is maximized.
- the waveguide layer 102 of the optical waveguide device 100 of the first embodiment has a very large multimode light propagation loss. Therefore, it is possible to selectively excite single-mode light despite multi-mode conditions.
- the width di of the ridge waveguide 1 0 3 is set to be narrower than the width d 5 of the slab waveguide 1 0 5.
- the effective refractive index which represents the effective refractive index of the waveguide, depends on the refractive index and the shape of the material forming the waveguide.
- width di of the ridge waveguide 1 0 3 is set to be narrower than the width d 5 of the slab waveguide 1 0 5, the effective refractive index of the ridge waveguide 1 0 3 of the effective refractive index of the slab waveguide 1 0 5 Smaller than. Therefore, the light that has permeated into the slab waveguide 105 is immediately absorbed by the slab waveguide 105 and becomes a waveguide loss.
- the width of the ridge waveguide 1 0 3 is narrower than the width d 5 of the slab waveguide 1 0 5, the propagation loss of the multimode light is very large. Therefore, it is possible to selectively excite single-mode light regardless of the multi-mode condition.
- the width d4 of the concave portion 104 is preferably larger than 50% of the width d1 of the ridge waveguide 103 and up to about 200%. If it is too wide, the influence on the ridge waveguide 103 is lost, and the multi-mode propagation loss does not increase. Also, if it is less than 50%, the propagation of light in the ridge waveguide 103 is greatly affected, and the single-mode propagation loss itself increases.
- the reason why the ridge waveguide 103 has a step-like refractive index distribution is also the reason that the waveguide layer 102 selectively excites single mode light. This will be specifically described below. If the ridge waveguide 103 has a graded refractive index distribution, the refractive index decreases continuously from the surface of the ridge waveguide 103 toward the bottom. Therefore, the waveguide mode is confined around the vicinity of the surface of the ridge waveguide 103. Therefore, the multimode also has an electric field distribution near the surface, and the same optical waveguide structure as in the first embodiment. Even if it is a structure, the leakage to the slab waveguide 105 via the waveguide layer under the concave portion 104 becomes very small. Therefore, the propagation loss of the multimode becomes small, and it becomes difficult to selectively excite only the single mode. As described above, in the optical waveguide device of the first embodiment, it is possible to selectively excite single-mode light despite multi-mode conditions.
- the optical waveguide device 100 having the ridge waveguide structure a double clad structure, it is possible to further widen the wavelength region in which single mode propagation is possible even in a waveguide under multimode conditions. become.

- FIG. 3B is an incident end view of the optical waveguide device having the double clad structure.
- the optical waveguide device 200 having a double clad structure alleviates the condition of single mode propagation.
- the optical waveguide device 200 has a structure in which a two-layer cladding (cladding 201 and cladding 202) is provided as a cladding layer of the ridge waveguide 103. It is preferable to use a material having a refractive index close to that of the ridge waveguide 103 for the clad 202 in contact with the ridge waveguide 103.
- the structure may include an oxide containing Nb.
- mixed-film N b 2 ⁇ 5 and T a 2 0 5 as a high transmittance characteristic high refractive index material can be used.
- the optical waveguide device 200 having such a structure two lights having different wavelengths propagate. Also, the regions where these lights propagate are not the same. For example, when light having a wavelength of 0.78 m and light having a wavelength of 1.56 are propagated, light having a short wavelength (wavelength 0.78 ⁇ m) is converted into a ridge waveguide as shown in FIG. 3B. Light with a long wavelength (wavelength 1.56 m) guided in the region 207 in 103 Guides the region 208 including the cladding layer 202.
- the optical waveguide device 200 having the double clad ridge waveguide structure described above relaxes the condition of single mode propagation.
- the performance can be further improved by using the two-layer clad for the optical waveguide device of the first embodiment.
