To provide a super luminescent light emitting diode comprising an optical waveguide structure which supplies particularly-high optical output. The super-luminescent light emitting diode includes: a first optical waveguide, of which one end is optically connected to one end of a multimode interference optical waveguide, and of which the other end forms a first light emitting edge; and a second optical waveguide, of which one end is optically connected to the other end of the multimode interference optical waveguide, and of which the other end forms a second light emitting edge. Each of the first and second optical waveguides has a width smaller than the width of the multimode interference optical waveguide.
