A laser diode includes an n-type semiconductor region, a p-type semiconductor region, a semiconductor mesa provided between the n-type semiconductor region and the p-type semiconductor region, the semiconductor mesa including an active layer, and a semiconductor burying region located between the n-type semiconductor region and the p-type semiconductor region, the semiconductor burying region being provided on a side face of the semiconductor mesa. The semiconductor burying region includes an n-type semiconductor burying layer and a p-type semiconductor burying layer. The n-type semiconductor burying layer is provided between the p-type semiconductor region and the p-type semiconductor burying layer. The p-type semiconductor burying layer is doped with an element that forms an electron trapping level in the band gap of the p-type semiconductor burying layer. |
