Abstract:
A semiconductor optical modulator includes an input waveguide provided on a side of a substrate, a first and a second output waveguides provided on the same side of the substrate, a dividing portion optically connected to the input waveguide, eight arm waveguides optically connected to the dividing portion, a first multiplexing portion optically connecting four of the arm waveguides to the first output waveguide, a second multiplexing portion optically connecting the other four of the arm waveguides to the second output waveguide, and modulation electrodes provided on respective ones of the eight arm waveguides. The first and second output waveguides are arranged symmetrically about the input waveguide.

Claim (Index 4):
The semiconductor optical modulator according to  claim 1 , wherein the four of the arm waveguides include a first winding path portion that is disposed between the dividing portion and the modulation electrodes,\n wherein the other four of the arm waveguides include a second winding path portion that is disposed between the dividing portion and the modulation electrodes, and wherein the four of the arm waveguides are bent in the first winding path portion toward a side opposite to a side toward which the other four of the arm waveguides are bent in the second winding path portion.
