  • Patent number: 10217879
    Abstract: The present invention provides an optical semiconductor device in which damage of a lens when being mounted and mounting displacement due to suction failures of a chip can be suppressed. An optical semiconductor device according to an embodiment includes: a semiconductor substrate having a first surface and a second surface facing the first surface; an electrode formed over the first surface of the semiconductor substrate; an optical element that is electrically coupled to the electrode and is formed in the semiconductor substrate; and a lens arranged on the second surface side of the optical element. A concave part is formed in the second surface of the semiconductor substrate, and the lens is arranged at the bottom of the concave part. A top part on the second surface side of the lens is located on the first surface side relative to the second surface located around the concave part.
