A semiconductor laser device A1 comprises a semiconductor laser chip 2 and a stem 1. The stem 1 includes a base 11 and leads 3A, 3B, and 3C fixed to the base, and supports the semiconductor laser chip 2. The semiconductor laser device A1 further comprises a first metal layer 15 including a first layer 151 covering the base 11 and the leads 3A, 3B, and 3C, a second layer 152 interposed between the first layer 151 and each of the base 11 and the leads 3A, 3B, and 3C, and a third layer 153 interposed between the second layer 152 and each of the base 11 and the leads 3A, 3B, and 3C. Crystal grains in the second layer 152 are smaller than crystal grains in the third layer 153. Such a configuration can suppress corrosion.
