    摘要: A light modulator having a reduced parasitic static capacitance includes a semiconductor substrate having a mesa section and a bonding pad section. A primary insulating film on the substrate continuously covers the mesa section and the bonding pad section. After a mask has been formed on a portion of the primary insulating film opposite the bonding pad section, the remaining portion of the primary insulating film is etched, followed by removal of the mask. After the removal of the mask, a second insulating film is formed continuously covering the primary insulating film opposite the bonding pad section and the mesa section so that a relatively thick insulating layer is present only opposite the bonding pad section.

The electrically insulating film and/or the metal film has, in plan, a polygonal shave with five or more apexes, each of the apexes having an interior angle less than 180 degrees. Stress due to a change of temperature during operation is reduced, resulting in a semiconductor laser device having a longer life and higher reliability.

    摘要: A semiconductor laser device producing visible light includes a double heterojunction structure having a first conductivity type lower cladding layer, an active layer and a second conductivity type upper cladding layer, formed in a first epitaxial growth process of AlGaInP series materials and a contact layer formed in a second or later epitaxial growth process. The contact layer is In.sub.x GA.sub.1-x As.sub.y P.sub.1-y which can be grown at a lower temperature than used in the first process. Therefore, deterioration in laser characteristics due to the diffusion of dopant impurities during the growth of contact layer can be prevented, resulting in a semiconductor laser device having high performance and long lifetime.

    摘要: A semiconductor laser device includes a ridge waveguide having two side surfaces, a crystalline burying layer disposed at both side surfaces of the ridge waveguide, and a second conductivity type contact layer disposed on the burying layer and the ridge waveguide. The burying layer includes a first conductivity type first current blocking layer in contact with the side surfaces of the ridge waveguide, a second conductivity type second current blocking layer disposed on a portion of the first current blocking layer and separated from the ridge waveguide by a portion of the first current blocking layer near the ridge waveguide, a first conductivity type third current blocking layer disposed on a portion of the first current blocking layer near the ridge waveguide and on the second current blocking layer, and a second conductivity type final burying layer disposed on the third current blocking layer. In this structure, there is no pn junction at a regrowth interface between the final burying layer and the contact layer so that reduction in the forward voltage of the pn junction in continuous operation is avoided and increasing leakage current is suppressed so that the threshold current and light output of the laser do not deteriorate over time.

    摘要: A semiconductor laser includes a p type cladding layer and an n type cladding layer sandwiching an active layer serially disposed on a semiconductor substrate. The p type cladding layer includes a first dopant impurity producing p type conductivity and a smaller quantity of a second impurity that produces n type conductivity and ionically bonds to the first impurity. The first and second dopant impurities attract each other and cannot move individually during a crystal growth step at high temperature whereby the diffusion of those impurities into the active layer is suppressed, preventing formation of a deep impurity level in the active layer, resulting in a semiconductor laser with a reduced threshold current.
