Abstract
An optical end coupling type silicon optical integrated circuit is provided using an SOI substrate. This optical integrated circuit is constituted so as to connect with an external optical circuit at an end coupling part and have signal light incident to an optical circuit that includes a curved part. In the plane of the optical integrated circuit, the position of one end coupling part selected from among any thereof and the position of any multimode optical waveguide element to which a respective optical waveguide is connected via a respective curved part satisfy a positional relationship defined on the basis of a beam divergence angle [theta] of stray light.
