Abstract
An optical functional device includes: a photodetector; a first optical waveguide which is connected to one end face of the photodetector; and a second optical waveguide which is connected to the other end face of the photodetector. The photodetector is formed in a multi-mode interferometer and has electrodes. Light input from the first optical waveguide to the photodetector focuses image at a position physically away from the second optical waveguide, and light input from the second optical waveguide to the photodetector focuses image at a position physically away from the first optical waveguide.
