Abstract:
An optical waveguide includes: a plurality of linear portions arranged in parallel to each other; a plurality of arcuate portions, in the folded portion of the optical waveguide, concentrically arranged about a predetermined center position as a center on the substrate at intervals narrower than intervals between the plurality of linear portions, each of the arcuate portions having a central angle that increases as each of the arcuate portions is closer to the center position; and a plurality of connecting portions respectively connecting the plurality of linear portions and the plurality of arcuate portions, at least one group of the connecting portions bending in a direction opposite to a direction where each of the arcuate portions bends.

Claim (Index 6):
The optical modulator according to  claim 1 , further comprising another low refractive index portion formed on the substrate along an outer periphery of the at least one group of the connecting portions, the other low refractive index portion having a refractive index lower than the reflective index of the substrate.
