Abstract

A band discontinuity reduction layer having a band gap energy larger than that of that of an MQW (multiple quantum well) absorption layer and smaller than that of a p-InP clad layer is provided between the MQW absorption layer and the p-InP clad layer. In addition, a band discontinuity reduction layer having a band gap energy larger than that of the MQW absorption layer and smaller than that of an n-InP clad layer is provided between the MQW absorption layer and the n-InP clad layer. Consequently, as a pile-up of carriers is suppressed, a semiconductor light modulator with an enhanced response speed can be obtained.
