ABSTRACT:
In a method of fabricating a semiconductor optical device, insulating structures for an alignment mark for use in electron beam exposure are formed on a primary surface of a first group III-V semiconductor region. After forming the insulating structures, a second group III-V semiconductor region is grown on the first group III-V semiconductor region to form an epitaxial wafer. The height of the insulating structures is larger than thickness of the second group III-V semiconductor region. After forming the second group III-V semiconductor region, alignment for the electron beam exposure is performed. After the alignment, a resist is exposed to an electron beam to form a resist mask. The resist mask has a pattern for a diffraction grating, and the resist is on the epitaxial wafer.
