摘要:
A semiconductor laser of this invention, having a structure of an element composed of: carrier block layers, formed bilaterally externally of an active layer in section which is formed in the vertical direction from the surface of the element, for reducing a light guiding function of the active layer; wave guide layers provided bilaterally externally of said carrier block layers and clad layers provided so that the wave guide layers are sandwiched in between the clad layers. This invention overcomes a dilemma inherent in the conventional weakly guiding laser and LOC structured laser in terms of designing the device for controlling a guided mode. The present invention also solves the problems in terms of attaining higher outputting and a low dispersion of the radiation beams and improving a beam profile.

A method for producing a semiconductor laser having an edge window structure includes the steps of forming masks of insulating films on a nitride-based III-V compound semiconductor substrate including first regions and second regions periodically arranged in parallel therebetween; and growing a nitride-based III-V compound semiconductor layer in a region not covered by the masks. The first region between each two adjacent second regions has two or more positions, symmetrical with respect to a center line thereof, where laser stripes are to be formed. The masks are formed on one or both sides of each of the positions where the laser stripes are to be formed at least near a position where edge window structures are to be formed such that the masks are symmetrical with respect to the center line. The nitride-based III-V compound semiconductor layer includes an active layer containing at least indium and gallium.

A process for producing a molding having an embedded member which comprises: a first step in which a mold (1) having pins (3) which extend from the outside to the inside of the mold and can be withdrawn outward is heated to a given temperature; a second step in which a member (2) to be embedded is held in a given position within the mold by supporting the member, including an upper part thereof, with the pins (3); a third step in which a thermoplastic resin is packed through a gate (1d) first into that part of the cavity of the mold (1) which is located under the member to be embedded to thereby cause the thermoplastic resin to press the member against the pin (3) located in an upper part of the mold; a fourth step in which the thermoplastic resin is packed into the remaining part of the cavity of the mold (1); and a fifth step in which the pins (3) are withdrawn successively from the lower side of the mold before cooling to a temperature at which the thermoplastic resin solidifies and loses its flowability.

A method for manufacturing a semiconductor laser includes the steps of forming a mask layer having a stripe-shaped mask portion corresponding to a ridge stripe to be formed on a nitride-based group III-V compound semiconductor layer, etching the nitride-based group III-V compound semiconductor layer to a predetermined depth using the mask layer to form the ridge stripe, forming a resist to cover the mask layer and the nitride-based group III-V compound semiconductor layer, etching-back the resist until the stripe-shaped mask portion of the mask layer is exposed, removing the exposed mask portion of the mask layer by etching to expose the upper surface of the ridge stripe, forming a metal film on the resist and the exposed ridge stripe to form an electrode on the ridge stripe, removing the resist together with the metal film formed thereon, and removing the mask layer by etching.

An upper portion of a second clad layer and a contact layer are provided with grooves so as to form a ridge therebetween. An electrode is formed on the ridge. An insulation film is formed to extent on side surfaces of the ridge, on the inside of the grooves, and those portions of the contact layer which are located on the outside of the grooves. The thickness of those portions of the insulation film which are located on the contact layer in the areas on the outside of the grooves is set to be greater than at least the thickness of the electrode. Besides, a pad electrode is formed to cover the electrode and to extend on the insulation film on the upper side of the areas on the outside of the grooves. The upper surfaces of those portions of the pad electrode which are located on the upper side of the areas on the outside of the grooves are set to be above the upper surface of that portion of the pad electrode which is located on the upper side of the ridge.

A brake fluid pressure control apparatus has a solenoid valve and/or other fluid pressure control elements in a housing, and the reactive force resulting from the fluid pressure acting on the fluid pressure control elements is carried by a support member fastened to the housing. The support member is a flat plate member. Mounting tabs are formed integrally to and on the same plane as the support member, projecting outwardly from the ends thereof. The mounting tabs are each fastened to the bracket of the vehicle body through a rubber bushing and mounting case. Thus, the structure used to fasten the control apparatus to the vehicle body is simplified and the number of parts required for installation is reduced.

A brake fluid pressure control device is provided, and includes a main flow path for connecting, as one system, first and second wheel brakes with a master cylinder, a first reservoir, a fluid pressure adjusting member for selectively enabling the first and second wheel brakes to communicate with the master cylinder and the first reservoir, a pump for pressurizing brake fluid in the first reservoir so as to discharge the brake fluid to a junction of the main flow path and the pump. A second reservoir which is in communication with the fluid pressure adjusting member and the second wheel brake and, a directional control valve which is adapted, in a first state, to enable the master cylinder and the fluid pressure adjusting member to communicate with each other and in a second state to interrupt communication between the master cylinder and the fluid pressure adjusting member are also provided. A control unit is also provided which, at the time of traction control, sets the directional control valve to the second state and drives the pump so as to supply the brake fluid in the second reservoir to the first wheel brake through the fluid pressure adjusting member.

A braking fluid pressure control apparatus is provided including a master cylinder driven by force applied to a brake pedal for generating braking hydraulic pressure; an auxiliary power unit sucking fluid from a reservoir and pressurizing the fluid so as to store the fluid as an auxiliary power source; a booster having a boost chamber for generating boost pressure proportional to force applied to the brake pedal in the boost chamber in receipt of pressure supplied from the auxiliary power unit so that the thrust of the master cylinder is increased by the boost pressure generated by the force applied to the brake pedal and the boost pressure is used as braking pressure. A pressurizing unit housing is provided with a large-diameter opening and a small-diameter opening arranged in series. A first piston is provided which is slidably inserted into the small diameter opening and fluid-sealing the small-diameter opening so as to separate a first cylinder chamber and a second cylinder chamber from each other. A second piston slidably is inserted into the large-diameter opening so as to separate the second cylinder chamber and a third cylinder chamber form each other. A spring is provided for urging the second piston toward the second cylinder chamber and for opening and closing a port. The apparatus permits brakes to operate effectively even if a problem exists in the boost pressure line.
