In the three-terminal optical signal amplifying device 10, a portion of the neighboring light LS at other wavelength than that of the first wavelength λ1 that is selected from the output light from the element 14 by the optical add drop filter 16, and the control light Lc at the second wavelength λ2 input from the external are together input to the second semiconductor optical amplifying element 18. The output light including the output signal light LOUT at the second wavelength λ2 and the neighboring light at the neighboring wavelength to the second wavelength λ2 that is modulated and controlled by the control light LC in the cross gain modulation is output from the second semiconductor optical amplifying element 18. And the output signal light LOUT at the second wavelength λ2 passes through the wavelength selecting filter 20.
