摘要:
A semiconductor laser has an active region which includes at least a quantum well layer and upper and lower optical waveguide layers and is of InxGa1−xAsyP1−y (0≦x≦1, 0≦y≦1). Upper and lower AlGaAs cladding layers are formed on opposite sides of the active region. At least one of the optical waveguide layers is not smaller than 0.25 μm in thickness, and a part of the upper cladding layer on the upper optical waveguide layer is selectively removed up to the interface of the upper cladding layer and the upper optical waveguide layer.

An endocavity ultrasonic probe includes a backing member of cylindrical or convex shape, and a plurality of strip shaped ultrasonic transducers arranged on the backing member. The ultrasonic transducer is composed of three piezoelectric layers, electrode layers formed above and below each piezoelectric layer, insulating films formed at one side face of each electrode layer, and side electrodes formed along both side faces of the piezoelectric layers and the electrode layers. The electrode layers are electrically connected to one of the side electrodes but insulated from the other side electrode. Two vertically adjacent electrode layers are electrically connected to a different one of the side electrodes.

In a process for producing a substrate for use in a semiconductor element: a first GaN layer having a plurality of pits at its upper surface is formed; and then a second GaN layer is formed by growing a GaN crystal over the first GaN layer until the upper surface of the second GaN layer becomes flattened.

A semiconductor laser includes a first clad layer having one of p-type conductivity and n-type conductivity, a first optical waveguide layer, a first barrier layer of GaAs1-y2Py2, a quantum-well active layer of Inx3Ga1-x3As1-y3Py3, a second barrier layer of GaAs1-y2Py2, a second optical waveguide layer and a second clad layer having the of p-type conductivity and n-type conductivity formed in this order on a GaAs substrate. Each of the first and second clad layers is of a composition which matches with the GaAs substrate in lattice. Each of the first and second optical waveguide layers is of a InGaAsP composition which matches with the GaAs substrate in lattice. Each of the first and second barrier layers is 10 to 30 nm in thickness and is of a composition which has tensile strain relative to the GaAs substrate, the product of the tensile strain and the thickness of each of the first and second barrier layers being 5 to 20% nm. The quantum-well active layer is 6 to 10 nm in thickness and is of a composition which has compressive strain of not smaller than 1.0% relative to the GaAs substrate. The sum of the product of the tensile strain and the thickness of the first barrier layer and that of the second barrier layer is larger than the product of the compressive strain and the thickness of the quantum-well active layer.

An exposure system is provided with an exposure head formed of a red organic EL element which emits light in a red region and another organic EL element which emits light in a predetermined wavelength range shorter than the red region. The exposure system exposes a color photosensitive body containing therein at least a red silver-salt photosensitive material sensitive to the light in the red region and another silver-salt photosensitive material sensitive to the light in the predetermined wavelength range. An optical filter cuts the wavelength components which are shorter than the predetermined wavelength range and included in a sensitive range of the red silver-salt photosensitive material.
