Abstract:
In an optical modulator capable of modulating incident laser beam L by a compound semiconductor single crystal having a property of generating an electro-optic effect, the attenuation of the signal strength in a low frequency band is prevented without lowering the carrier concentration of the compound semiconductor. The optical modulator  23  comprises: incidence limiting means  25  which is provided on or near an incidence plane  24 a , on which the laser beam L can be incident, of the compound semiconductor single crystal  24  so as to limit incidence of light other than the laser beam L on the incidence plane  24 a ; and a shielding member  26  which is formed from a low-permittivity material having a light blocking effect, and covers a surface  24 c  of the compound semiconductor single crystal  24  extending along a traveling direction of the laser beam L that entered the compound semiconductor single crystal  24.
