    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide, first and second electrodes, and a first wiring electrode. The first electrode is on one side of the optical waveguide in a height direction of the optical modulator and extends along a portion of the optical waveguide. The second electrode is on another side of the optical waveguide in the height direction of the optical modulator. The first wiring electrode is on a side of the first electrode opposite to the optical waveguide in the height direction and is electrically connected to the first electrode. The first wiring electrode includes a wiring portion extending from an end portion in an extension direction of the first electrode when viewed along the height direction.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide and first and second electrodes. The first electrode is located on one side in a height direction of the optical modulator with respect to the optical waveguide. The first electrode includes one end portion and another end portion overlapping with the optical waveguide in a view along the height direction. The second electrode is located on the other side in the height direction with respect to the optical waveguide and applies an electric field to the optical waveguide together with the first electrode. In the view along the height direction, a length of the first electrode is different from a length of the optical waveguide from a position of the one end portion to a position of the another end portion of the first electrode.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide, a first electrode, two second electrodes, and a third electrode that generates a potential difference from the first electrode and the second electrodes. Each second electrode receives a voltage with an identical phase to a voltage applied to the first electrode. In a cross-sectional view perpendicular to a direction in which the optical waveguide extends, the first electrode is on a first side of the optical waveguide in a thickness direction, one second electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode on a first side of the first electrode in a width direction of the optical waveguide, the other second electrode is spaced apart from the first electrode on a second side of the first electrode in the width direction of the optical waveguide, and the third electrode is on a second side of the optical waveguide in the thickness direction.

    Abstract: An ultrasonic transducer includes first and second acoustic transducers and a housing with a bottomed tubular shape. The second acoustic transducer includes an annular section supporting a second membrane section and contacting an entire periphery of the second membrane section, and an acoustic matching plate facing the second membrane section and spaced apart from the second membrane section. The acoustic matching plate is connected to a surrounding wall portion defining a sealed space with the housing. An ultrasonic transmission path sandwiched between the first membrane section and the second membrane section is provided in the sealed space. A maximum inner width of the ultrasonic transmission path is smaller than a maximum inner width of the surrounding wall portion.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a low dielectric constant layer. The optical waveguide is made of a material having an electro-optic effect. The first and second electrodes generate a potential difference with each other. In a cross-sectional view in a direction perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to an extending direction of the optical waveguide, the first electrode is on first side of the optical waveguide in a width direction and on first side of the optical waveguide in a thickness direction, the second electrode is on the second side of the optical waveguide in the width direction and on the second side of the optical waveguide in the thickness direction, the low dielectric constant layer is interposed between the first electrode and the optical waveguide, and a portion of the first electrode adjacent to the optical waveguide is in the low dielectric constant layer.

    Abstract: An optical modulator includes an optical waveguide, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a first low dielectric constant layer. The optical waveguide includes a material having an electro-optic effect. The first electrode includes a semiconductor material and is spaced by a gap from the optical waveguide. The second electrode is positioned to provide a potential difference with the first electrode and apply an electric field to the optical waveguide. The first low dielectric constant layer has a refractive index smaller than that of the optical waveguide, and is provided in the gap between the first electrode and the optical waveguide.
