Abstract:
There is provided an integration-type optical modulation device which performs polarization-beam-combining on two linearly polarized light beams respectively output from a plurality of optical modulation elements and outputs the resultant beam so as to seek an improvement and stabilization of optical characteristics, miniaturization, and low cost. The optical modulation device includes: first and second optical modulation elements  102 a  and  120 b  that are disposed to output output light beams side by side and respectively output the two output light beams; first and second optical path shift elements  108 a  and  108 b  that respectively shift optical paths of the two output light beams from the first optical modulation element and optical paths of the two output light beams from the second optical modulation element in first and second directions; and first and second polarization beam combining elements  110 a  and  110 b  that respectively combine the two output light beams after passing through the first and second optical path shift elements into one beam and outputs the one beam, in which the first optical path shift element and the second optical path shift element are integrally formed as one optical component.

Claim (Index 3):
The optical modulation device according to  claim 2 , further comprising:\n a rectangular housing that accommodates the first and second polarization beam combining elements, wherein the line segment parallel to the propagation direction of the output light beam coincides with one center-line of the housing, the housing has\n a first hole which guides the beams output from the first polarization beam combining element to an outside of the housing, and \n a second hole which guides the beams output from the second polarization beam combining element to the outside of the housing, and \n the first and second holes are disposed at symmetrical positions from each other with respect to the one center-line.
