置決めすることが不可能であつた。Conventional optical semiconductor devices such as semiconductor lasers and photodiodes have structures such as those described in p.240 and p.416 of optical communication optical device engineering (Hiroo Yonezu, Engineering Book),
Since the side surface of the element is made by scribing, there are large variations in the external dimensions of the element. Therefore, it is impossible to accurately position the light emitting portion or the light receiving portion of the device with respect to the mount.

ー技術などを利用することに着目した。In the semiconductor laser used for optical communication, it is necessary to position the light emitting portion with high precision in order to efficiently couple with the optical fiber. At this time, it is desirable to mount the chip with mechanical accuracy using the outer wall of the chip. For this reason, we focused on using photolithography technology that can accurately determine the position of the outer wall from the light emitting unit.

て精密な位置精度が実現できる。In this figure, a V groove is formed on both sides of the active layer above the conventional buried hetero semiconductor laser. In the figure, 1 is a p-side electrode, 2 is a p + diffusion region, 3 is an InGaAsP cap layer, 4 is a p-InP cladding layer, 5 is an InGaAsP active layer, 6 is an n-InP cladding layer, and 7 is n-InP. Substrate, 8 is n
A side electrode, 9 is an n-InP block layer, and 10 is a p-InP block layer. In this embodiment, the V-groove is used for positioning. That is, the element shown in FIG. 1 is fitted into a mount having two inverted V-shaped stripe-shaped protrusions. Therefore, not only the external force applied to the trapezoidal ridge shape portion near the active layer 5 is reduced, but also the V groove is used for positioning, so that extremely precise position accuracy can be realized.
