Abstract
An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide formed on a substrate and modulates a light wave propagating through the optical waveguide, in which the optical waveguide has a configuration in which a plurality of branching parts are connected to each other in multiple stages, each of branched waveguides branched from a branch point of a first branching part among the plurality of branching parts has a transition curve of which a curvature changes, in a predetermined section from the branch point, each of the branched waveguides is formed by the transition curve starting from a curvature of 0, and a curvature change and a width change of the optical waveguide are set to be symmetric between the branched waveguides, and second branching parts formed in the respective branched waveguides are disposed at different positions between the branched waveguides in a direction along a propagation axis of the optical waveguide.
