Disclosed is a silicon optical waveguide having a small optical loss and no polarization dependency. The silicon optical waveguide is formed on a silicon substrate with an embedded oxide film therebetween, the plane orientation of the surface of the silicon optical waveguide is the (110) plane, the plane orientation of the side wall is the (111) plane, and the recesses and projections of the side wall are planarized at an atomic level. |
