In a polarization dependency type optical isolator comprising wedgelike polarizing prisms 3 and 5 and a Faraday rotator 4, the mode field diameters of an input side fiber 1 and an output side fiber 7 are the same as that of a transmission fiber and an erbium-doped fiber to be connected to them. The shape and other features of each lens are controlled so that the spot size of a parallel ray which is converted from an incident ray by an input side lens 2 is equal to the spot size of a parallel ray which is converted by an output side lens 6 when a reference beam is irradiated from the fiber 7. In a rare-earth-doped fiber optical amplifier using an optical isolator which is configured in a manner similar to this, the connecting portion of the fiber and the optical isolator can be spliced by fusion without increasing the insertion loss of the optical isolator in the forward direction and the connection loss due to a difference in the mode field diameter is reduced. Therefore, the noise figure decreases and the gain increases.

A high resistance re-grown layer is disposed around an optical device having a mesa structure. Thus, a mesa portion having a plane direction that appears in etching of a circular main structure is coated with the re-grown layer. Because of this coating, it is possible to reduce the capacitance in this portion as well as to avoid the risk of disconnection with respect to all the wiring directions. The thickness of the re-grown layer can be set to be equal to the thickness of the main structural part. Particularly, when a conductive substrate is used, a substantial reduction effect of parasitic capacitance can be expected from a combination with plural dielectric films.

Reducing a dark current in a semiconductor photodetector provided with a second mesa including an regrown layer around a first mesa. An n-type buffer layer, a n-type multiplication layer, a p-type field control layer, a p-type absorption layer, a cap layer made of p-type InAlAs crystal, and a p-type contact layer 107 are made to grow on a main surface of a n-type substrate. Thereafter the p-type contact layer, the p-type cap layer, the p-type absorption layer and the p-type field control layer are patterned to form a first mesa. Next, after making a p-type regrown layer selectively grow around the first mesa or by forming a groove in the regrow layer located in a vicinity of the p-type cap type during a step of the selective growth, the p-type cap layer containing Al and the regrow layer are separated owing to the groove such that no current path is formed between both layers.
