ABSTRACT:
An optical device includes a substrate, an optical waveguide provided on a surface of the substrate, and an electroluminescence element including a first electrode layer, a first insulator layer, a light emitting layer for emitting light, a second insulator layer and a second electrode layer which are successively stacked. The light emitted from the light emitting layer is emitted from an end surface of the optical waveguide. The optical waveguide has a refractive index which increases from an outer periphery to a center portion of a cross section which is approximately parallel to the end surface, and the electroluminescence element is provided within the optical waveguide.
