ABSTRACT:
A core for propagating optical signals, and a pair of first and second cladding layers disposed opposite each other, between which the core is disposed, are provided, which prevents light scattering between the cladding and the core, and reduces polarization dependency. The first cladding layer on which the core is formed has a multilayer film on the boundary face side contacting the core, and the multilayer film has a multilayer structure in which a distortion stress exists among multiple materials.
