Abstract

A semiconductor device includes an electrode which is arranged on an organic material with an insulation film interposed therebetween and which does not easily peel away from the organic material along with the insulation film. An insulation film in a region including pad portions of a phase shift electrode and a modulation electrode has openings at the centers of the pad portions of the phase shift electrode and the modulation electrode, the edge portions of which are formed on the phase shift electrode and the modulation electrode. In this way, the adjoining edges of the phase shift electrode and modulation electrode and the insulation film are all covered by the insulation film so as not to be exposed to the atmosphere. By covering the cracks that occur in the insulation film in the production process with the insulation film made of SiO2, SiNX, SiONX or the like, an organic solvent such as acetone or ethanol used in the process can be prevented from seeping in between the insulation film and the organic material through the cracks in the insulation film.
