Integrated optical circuit device and method for producing the same

摘要

An integrated optical circuit device includes: a first optical element section including first and second element regions deposited along a thickness direction; a second optical element section formed away from the first optical element section, and a multimode interference region provided between the first and second optical element sections, the multimode interference region including a buried portion formed along a light propagation direction. The first and second optical element sections are optically coupled to each other via the multimode interference region.
