Abstract
An optical semiconductor device includes first and second cladding layers, a light guide layer sandwiched between the first and second cladding layers, and a layer structure provided in the light guide layer. The layer structure has a first periodic variation in a refractive index in a predetermined direction, and a second periodic variation in an optical gain in the predetermined direction. The first periodic variation has a period identical to that of the second periodic variation. The first periodic variation and the second periodic variation have a phase difference.
