An apparatus for correcting positional deviation of the light source emitting light beams in an image recording apparatus is disclosed which corrects change of the image size (dimensions of the image) on the photosensitive member due to positional deviations of beam spots on the photosensitive member on account of physical distortions caused by external vibration, temperature change, and the like. Changes in the diameter of detective light beams are measured by photodetecting portions 5.sub.R and 5.sub.L and piezoelectric devices 6a and 6b are driven based on the results of the detection, whereby the semiconductor laser array 1 is moved so that the multiplication b/a for the image size may be kept constant.

摘要:
In a semiconductor laser device according to the invention, a clad layer includes first clad layers, each of which has a greater band gap than an active layer and has a thickness of 0.003 to 0.3 .mu.m, and second clad layers each of which has a lower refractive index than the active layer, and the first clad layers are disposed nearer to the active layer than the second clad layers, respectively. In this structure, the first clad layers confine carriers in the active layer while the second clad layers confine the light in the active layer. Since each of the first clad layers is formed of a thin film, the carriers are hard to move outwardly from the active layer due to the tunnel phenomenon thereof and, even if the lattice constant thereof is slightly different, the first clad layer can be lattice matched to a substrate. For this reason, the materials of the second clad layers can be selected without taking into consideration the size of the band gap thereof. This makes it possible to reduce the oscillation threshold value current density of the laser as well as to improve the temperature characteristic of the laser.

A semiconductor laser device which allows high speed correction of the position of a laser spot on an optical disk is disclosed. The semiconductor laser device comprises an active layer which oscillates a laser beam when electric current is supplied thereto, and a plurality of independent electrodes for varying the current density distribution in the active layer to vary the intensity distribution of the laser beam to be emitted from an emergent face of the semiconductor laser device. With the semiconductor laser device, by supplying electric currents individually from the plurality of independent electrodes to vary the current density distribution in the active layer, the beam spot position can be corrected within the frequency bandwidth of several tens MHz by direct modulation of the semiconductor laser device. Also a driving method for the semiconductor laser device and a tracking servo system in which the semiconductor laser device is incorporated are disclosed.

A semiconductor laser device having an active layer which is comprised of a quantum well layer formed of a mixed crystal material, and barrier layers provided on both sides of the quantum well layer in such a manner as to sandwich the same, is characterized in that Ge is thermally diffused in a portion of the active layer to disorder the quantum well layer and the barrier layers at that portion so as to form a non-light-emitting area with a low refractive index, while the quantum well layer and the barrier layers at a portion where Ge is not diffused is formed as a refractive index waveguide which is a light-emitting area.
摘要:
An image forming apparatus can form an image of a high-precision security information for anti-reproduction. A photosensitive material-coated area in a recording paper is exposed with an exposure unit to form an image of a high-precision security information. Since the image of the security information is thus formed by exposing the photosensitive material, it can be formed as an image incapable of reproduction.
