| 摘要 |
An optical control element having a substrate 1 having an electro-optic effect, an optical waveguide 2 formed on the substrate, and a control electrode 3 that is provided on the substrate and controls the phase of light that propagates through the optical waveguide, in which the control electrode 3 has a plurality of resonant-type electrodes 31 and 32 that are disposed along the optical waveguide 2 and have different resonance frequencies (f1 and f2), an feeder electrode 30 through which control signals are input and branched signal electrodes that are branched from the feeder electrode are connected to the respective resonant-type electrodes, and the branched signal electrode is configured to match a timing at which the electric control signal is applied to each of the resonant-type electrodes and a timing at which the light that propagates through the optical waveguide passes at the section of each of the resonant-type electrodes. |
