Abstract: A beam deflection system includes 2M laser light sources configured to emit laser lights, each laser light source being configured to switch two different center wavelengths to each other. The 2M laser light sources are divided into two sets of M types. The laser lights emitted from the two sets of M types of laser light sources are combined and input to a beam deflector. When (i) N is defined as an integer satisfying an expression of “1≤N≤M”, and (ii) center wavelengths of Nth laser light sources of the two sets of M laser light sources are defined as λN and λM+N, an expression of “λ1

Abstract: An optical scanner includes a substrate having a rigid body and a beam, and a layered body having multiple layers, including a lower conductive layer, a interlayer insulation film and an upper conductive layer, the layered body layered on and protruding outward from the rigid body and the beam. The layered body is patterned to form a resonance scanner portion and a vari-focal mirror, the resonance scanner portion (i) made as a part of the layered body and (ii) having an actuator part, and the vari-focal mirror made as a part of the layered body. The layered body including the resonance scanner portion and the vari-focal mirror is patterned to form a mirror driving wire. In such structure, the size of the optical scanner is reduced, and a frequency change of the resonance scanner portion due to the voltage application to the mirror driving wire is suppressed.

Abstract: A distance measurement sensor that detects a distance to an object based on heterodyne detection using light generated from a light source and another light received by a light receiver, includes: a scanning unit which scans the light in a first direction; a diffusing lens which diffuses the light in a second direction; multiplexers which multiplex the light and the another light to provide optical signals, respectively; and a processor which detects the distance to the object based on the optical signals. The light receiver has light receiving antennas in the second direction. The multiplexers are connected to the light receiving antennas, respectively. The processor performs a parallel processing for detecting the distance to the object based on the optical signals with respect to the light receiving antennas individually.

Abstract: In a semiconductor device, a quantum dot group includes a stack of plural quantum dot layers having different central wavelengths at which respective gains are maximum. A part of or all of the quantum dot layers are stacked so that the central wavelengths sequentially shifts along a stacking direction. The quantum dot group includes a longest wavelength layer group composed of some quantum dot layers including a longest wavelength layer having a longest central wavelength and at least one quantum dot layer stacked on the longest wavelength layer. The longest wavelength layer or the longest wavelength layer group has a larger gain at the central wavelength than the gain at the central wavelength of each of the other quantum dot layers.

Abstract: A semiconductor light emitting element includes an optical waveguide having a first and second waveguide provided with a width that allows propagation of light in a second-order mode or higher and a multimode optical interference waveguide provided with a wider width than the first and second waveguide and arranged at a position therebetween. The semiconductor light emitting element further includes a first optical loss layer facing the first waveguide in an active-layer crossing direction for causing a loss of light that is propagating in the first waveguide in the second-order mode or higher and a second optical loss layer facing the second waveguide in an active-layer crossing direction for causing a loss of light that is propagating in the second waveguide in the second-order mode or higher, the active-layer crossing direction being orthogonal to a surface of an active layer.

Abstract: A reflector has a reflective surface on first and second directions. Each of torsion beams extends to each opposite side of the reflective surface in the first direction. Each of coupling portions is to each opposite side of the reflector in the first direction and includes a central portion with U-shape having two projection portions and a bottom portion joined to the torsion beam. The projection portions include first concave portions opposing across the torsion beam by being penetrated in thickness direction. Each first concave portion extends in the second direction from an opening to a side surface facing the torsion beam towards an opposite side surface up to a bottom. A distance between the bottoms of the first concave portions across the torsion beam is greater than a distance between the side surfaces each facing the torsion beam of the projection portions.

Abstract: An optical scanning device has a reflecting portion and a supporting body for supporting the reflecting portion. The reflecting portion has a reflecting surface for reflecting light beam. A pair of outside beam members is arranged between the reflecting portion and the supporting body in a longitudinal direction of the device. The device also has a first driving portion, one end of which is connected to the supporting body, while the other end of which is connected to a driving point of the reflecting portion. When the first driving portion is inflected, the reflecting portion is oscillated in a twisting vibration manner at a first axis. The driving point of the reflecting portion is located at a position separated from the first axis.

Abstract: The semiconductor laser device includes: an activation layer having at least one first quantum dot layer and at least one second quantum dot layer having a longer emission wavelength than the first quantum dot layer. The gain spectrum of the active layer has the maximum values at the first wavelength and the second wavelength longer than the first wavelength corresponding to the emission wavelength of the first quantum dot layer and the emission wavelength of the second quantum dot layer, respectively. The maximum value of the gain spectrum at the first wavelength is defined as the first maximum value, and the maximum value of the gain spectrum at the second wavelength is defined as the second maximum value. The first maximum value is larger than the second maximum value.
