Abstract
Included are a semiconductor device unit in which a semiconductor optical amplifier and a first semiconductor photo detector being configured to monitor a part of an input light input to the semiconductor optical amplifier or a part of an output light output from the semiconductor optical amplifier are integrated on a mutually same substrate, and a passive waveguide unit connected to the semiconductor device unit and in which a first passive waveguide being configured to cause the input light to be input to the semiconductor optical amplifier or to cause the output light to be output from the semiconductor optical amplifier and a second passive waveguide branching from the first passive waveguide and being configured to cause a part of the input light or a part of the output light to be input to the first semiconductor photo detector are provided on a mutually same substrate.
