An ultrahigh speed, high sensitivity photodetector, optical module and/or optical transmission device made by reducing the size of a surface illuminated type photodetector to decrease capacitance C. The effective detecting area on a side of the substrate that is opposite to a light incidence side of the substrate in a surface illuminated type photodetector and that is reached by the incident light passing through the semiconductor includes a plurality of ohmic contact areas and a reflector. The reflector may be a laminate comprised of two films in contact with the semiconductor including a transparent film (lower) and a metal film (upper).

The photodetector may be used in ultrahigh speed, high sensitivity optical modules, semiconductor photo receivers and optical transmission devices with increased transmission capacities.

A nitride semiconductor laser which features low resistance and high reliability. A buried layer is formed by selective growth and the shape of a p-type cladding layer is inverted trapezoidal so that the resistance of the p-type cladding layer and that of a p-type contact layer are decreased. For long-term reliability of the laser, the buried layer is a high-resistance semi-insulating layer which suppresses increase in leak current.
