Abstract

An optical semiconductor device having a plurality of GaN-based semiconductor layers containing a strained quantum well layer in which the strained quantum well layer has a piezoelectric field that depends on the orientation of the strained quantum well layer when the quantum layer is grown. In the present invention, the strained quantum well layer is grown with an orientation at which the piezoelectric field is less than the maximum value of the piezoelectric field strength...
