Title:
光走査素子
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP6793194
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An optical scanning device 1 includes a supporting body 2; an optical waveguide 4 composed of a single crystal having electro-optic effect and integrated with the supporting body 2 directly or through a clad layer 3; a plurality of periodic domain inversion parts 6A to 6D formed in the optical waveguide 4 , the periodic domain inversion parts having periods different from each other; and a plurality of electrodes 7A to 7D and 8A to 8D capable of applying voltages on the periodic domain inversion parts, respectively, to generate diffraction gratings in the periodic domain inversion parts, respectively. The clad layer 3 is composed of a material having a refractive index lower than a refractive index of the single crystal forming the optical waveguide. Each of the periodic domain inversion parts on which the voltage is applied is selected to generate the diffraction grating in the selected periodic domain inversion part so that a propagation light propagated in the optical waveguide is emitted to the outside of the optical scanning device as a diffracted light.
