Abstract

An electro-optical element includes a substrate, and an optical functional layer formed on a main surface of the substrate, in which the optical functional layer includes an optical-input-side optical waveguide configured to guide light emitted from a light source, an optical branch part configured to branch the optical-input-side optical waveguide into two optical-modulation optical waveguides, a Mach-Zehnder optical modulation part configured to modulate light guided through the two optical-modulation optical waveguides, an optical coupling and branch part configured to branch the two optical-modulation optical waveguides configured to guide modulated light modulated by the Mach-Zehnder optical modulation part into one monitoring optical waveguide and a plurality of optical-output-side optical waveguides, and an optical coupling part configured to make the plurality of optical-output-side optical waveguides as one optical-output optical waveguide.
