An optical semiconductor device comprises a first semiconductor region of a first conductivity type and a second semiconductor region of a second conductivity type formed on the first semiconductor region. The device further comprises a third semiconductor region of the first conductivity type formed in a semiconductor layer, which is separated from the first and second semiconductor regions by an element separation region, and a fourth semiconductor region of the first conductivity type formed between a semiconductor substrate and third semiconductor region. The device further comprises a fifth semiconductor region of the first conductivity type formed across the semiconductor substrate and the first semiconductor region. An upper portion of the fifth semiconductor region penetrates into a specific depth of the first semiconductor region. Amplification of a current signal occurs when a reverse voltage is applied between the second semiconductor region and a surface portion of the third semiconductor region.
