Abstract

See full text

Preferable simultaneous achievement of the target characteristics with respect to both of the modulation bandwidth and the extinction ratio in the optical intensity modulation using the electro-absorption optical modulator is realized with a simple circuit configuration. The modulator integrated semiconductor laser element includes a plurality of EA modulators disposed in series in an optical signal path, and each adapted to absorb light in accordance with an applied voltage. The modulator driver for supplying the EA modulator with the applied voltage is provided for each of the EA modulators. The plurality of modulator drivers generates the applied voltage common to the plurality of EA modulators in accordance with a control signal. The modulator lengths of the plurality of EA modulators are set so that the closer to the light source the EA modulator is, the shorter the modulator length is.
