Abstract
An optical semiconductor device comprises cathode and anode regions, and a gate region having a forbidden band gap narrower than those of the cathode and anode regions. The gate region is sandwiched by the cathode and anode regions. The optical semiconductor device further comprises a plurality of windows for receiving and radiating lights so that the alignment of light axes can be easily performed for a plurality of input and output lights.
