Abstract:
The present disclosure provides an optical waveguide capable of enhancing the suppression of crosstalk. The optical waveguide includes: under claddings; cores for light propagation arranged in side-by-side relation on surfaces of the respective under claddings; over claddings covering the cores; and a light absorbing part provided between adjacent ones of the cores, the light absorbing part being in non-contacting relationship with the cores. The light absorbing part contains a light absorbing agent having an ability to absorb light propagating in the cores. The optical waveguide is produced on a surface of a substrate.

Claim (Index 1):
An optical waveguide, comprising:\n a plurality of cores for light propagation arranged in side-by-side relation; and a light absorbing part provided between adjacent ones of the plurality of cores, the light absorbing part being in a non-contacting relationship with the cores, wherein the light absorbing part contains a light absorbing agent having an ability to absorb light propagating in the cores.
