Abstract

According to the present invention, a semiconductor device includes a substrate comprising a front end face, a rear end face and side faces, a plurality of semiconductor lasers provided on the substrate, a forward optical multiplexer to multiplex forward output light of the plurality of semiconductor lasers and output the multiplexed light to the front end face, a backward optical multiplexer to multiplex backward output light of the plurality of semiconductor lasers and output the multiplexed light to the rear end face and a plurality of backward waveguides connected to an output section of the backward optical multiplexer, wherein the plurality of backward waveguides includes a main waveguide disposed at a center of the output section and a plurality of lateral waveguides disposed on both sides of the main waveguide to bend toward the side faces and output light from the side faces diagonally to the side faces.
