Abstract
An effective refractive index of a TM0 polarized wave guided through the first core when existing alone and an effective refractive index of a TE0 polarized wave guided through the second core when existing alone are continuous as a function of a distance from a starting point of a side-by-side arrangement section. A magnitude relationship between an effective refractive index of an odd mode of a TE0 polarized wave guided through the side-by-side arrangement section and an effective refractive index of an even mode of a TM0 polarized wave guided through the side-by-side arrangement section is reversed between the starting point and an ending point of the side-by-side arrangement section. A refractive index distribution is vertically asymmetrical in an interaction section. An emission edge surface and an emission edge surface cover an entrance edge surface without excess or deficiency.
