Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) A Mach-Zehnder optical modulator (MZM) with multimode interference (MMI) couplers using Ti-diffused LiNbO3 was considered. Electrodes were formed on the surface of an MMI waveguide section of the 2×2 MMI coupler, and voltage control of the optical power splitting ratio was experimentally confirmed. The MZM consisting of the MMI optical couplers was fabricated. The extinction ratio could be controlled by applying a voltage to the electrodes, and the maximum extinction ratio of about 50 dB was obtained. Furthermore, we made an optical SSB modulation experiment with microwave signals using an MZM consisting of MMI couplers. The sideband suppression ratio of 39 dB from the output optical spectrum.
