A wavelength tunable laser includes a DFB portion including a first optical waveguide provided with a first grating; a DBR portion including a second optical waveguide that is optically coupled to the first optical waveguide and is provided with a plurality of second gratings continuously arranged in a waveguide direction; and a phase shift portion including a third optical waveguide that is optically coupled to the first and second optical waveguides. Each of the second gratings has a grating formation area in which a grating is formed, and a grating phase shift area which shifts the phase of the grating adjacent thereto in the second grating. |
