Abstract
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a lower light confinement layer on a substrate, a light absorption layer on the lower light confinement layer, and an upper light confinement layer on the light absorption layer; and removing parts of these layers to form an optical modulator, forming a laser section having a diffraction grating in a portion of the substrate where the optical modulator is not present, forming a diffusion constraining layer, which constrains diffusion of a dopant, on the upper light confinement layer, and forming a contact layer on the laser section and the diffusion constraining layer. The same dopant is present in the contact layer and the upper light confinement layer.
