Abstract
An optical semiconductor device includes: a semiconductor substrate including a first main surface and a second main surface; a stacked body that is formed on the first main surface and includes an active layer and a contact layer arranged on a side opposite to the semiconductor substrate with respect to the active layer; a first electrode in contact with the contact layer; and a second electrode formed on the second main surface. The stacked body includes a light transmitting portion formed by not covering at least part of a surface of the contact layer on a side opposite to the semiconductor substrate with the first electrode. The optical semiconductor device is configured such that a waveguide mode is not formed by current application through the first electrode and the second electrode in a state in which the light transmitting portion is not in optical contact with an external member.
