To provide an optical interference circuit which is applied to a
system for transmitting and frequency-converting frequency reference light and can transmit each of a plurality of frequencies of the frequency reference light while maintaining
high frequency accuracy.SOLUTION: An optical interference circuit according to the present invention includes a
waveguide circuit unit in which an optical
waveguide is formed on a substrate, and a
frequency conversion unit that converts a frequency of frequency reference light, in which the
waveguide circuit unit further includes a
reproduction reference light input port, a frequency reference light input / output port, a transmission path
fiber input / output port, a first coupler, a frequency
selective reflection unit, a frequency synchronization detection circuit, a first detection light output port, a transmission
path length fluctuation detection circuit, and a second detection light output port, and the frequency synchronization detection circuit further includes one second coupler. The
transmission line length fluctuation detection circuit further includes one third coupler and one fourth coupler connected to the third coupler.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
