Abstract
A buried semiconductor optical device comprises a semiconductor substrate; a mesa-stripe portion including a multi-quantum well layer on the semiconductor substrate; a buried layer consisting of a first portion and a second portion, the first portion covering one side of the mesa-stripe portion, the second portion covering the other side of the mesa-stripe portion, and the first portion and the second portion covering a surface of the semiconductor substrate; and an electrode configured to cause an electric current to flow through the mesa-stripe portion, the buried layer comprising, from the surface, a first, second, and third sublayer, the first and third sublayer each consisting of semi-insulating InP, the first sublayer and the second sublayer forming a pair structure, the second sublayer being located above the multi-quantum well layer, and the second sublayer consisting of one or more layers selected from InGaAs, InAlAs, InGaAlAs, InGaAsP, and InAlAsP.
