摘要： A first resist layer (21) and a second resist layer (22) are formed on a base material (11) in the recited order, the first resist layer (21) being removable by etching and the second resist layer (22) being a photosensitive resist layer in which either exposed or unexposed regions become soluble in a developing solvent upon emission of light. Near-field light is then emitted to the second resist layer (22) by means (24) for emitting near-field light (27) according to a diffraction grating pattern upon reception of the light. Next, the diffraction grating pattern is formed in the second resist layer (22) by developing the second resist layer (22). The first resist layer (21) is etched with the pattern in the second resist layer (22) as an etching mask, and a diffraction grating pattern consisting of the first and second resist layers (21, 22) is formed. Finally, a diffraction grating is formed in the base material (11) by etching the base material (11) with the pattern in the first and second resist layers (21, 22) as an etching mask.

摘要： A semiconductor laser device having an active region including alternating layers of at least one quantum well layer and a plurality of barrier layers, where two of the plurality of barrier layers are the outermost layers of the alternating layers. Each of the at least one quantum well layer has a compressive strain, and each of the plurality of barrier layers has a tensile strain. In the active region, a strain buffer layer having an intermediate strain is formed between each quantum well layer and each of two barrier layers adjacent to the quantum well layer. Interfacial strain is thus reduced, improving high-output-power characteristics.
