Abstract
An optical circuit device includes a first to fourth optical couplers, wherein the first optical coupler splits a first input light into a first output beam and a second output beam with a 90-degree phase difference therebetween, and the second optical coupler splits a second input light into a third output beam and a fourth output beam with a 180-degree phase difference therebetween. The third optical coupler combines one of the first and second output beams and one of the third and fourth output beams, and outputs a first optical signal and a second optical signal having a 180-degree phase shift from each other. The fourth optical coupler combines the other of the first and second output beams and the other of the third and fourth output beams, and outputs a third optical signal and a fourth optical signal having a 180-degree phase shift from each other.
