摘要:
A periodic gain-type semiconductor laser device in which a mesa stripe has wide portions and narrow portions alternately arranged with a period that is an integral multiple of the half-wavelength of the emitted light. A multilayer structure including an n-AlGaAs first cladding layer 103 and an AlGaAs non-doped active layer 104 formed on the mesa stripe also have wide portions and narrow portions. An n-AlGaAs current confining layer 106 covers the sides of the AlGaAs non-doped active layer 104. The height of the top surface of the n-AlGaAs current confining layer 106 matches the height of the AlGaAs non-doped active layer 104. A p-AlGaAs second cladding layer 105 is formed on the AlGaAs non-doped active layer 104 and the current confining layer 106. A driving current is not injected into the narrow portions of the AlGaAs non-doped active layer 104.

A buried stripe type semiconductor laser device having a mesa stripe whose side faces are {111} facets and having a current confinement structure under epitaxial layers burying the mesa stripe is disclosed. The buried stripe type semiconductor laser device comprises a (100) semiconductor substrate having a stripe-shaped ridge in the direction, a multi-layer film of a double hetero structure formed on the upper surface of the stripe-shaped ridge. The mutil-layer film includes a laser oscillating active layer of a smaller width than that of the stripe-shaped ridge. The current confinement means are formed at both sides of the mesa stripe on the semiconductor substrate. In addition, a method of fabricating a buried stripe type semiconductor laser device having no raised portion above a mesa stripe of a substrate is disclosed. The laser device can be mounted in position with the epitaxial layer side down, without the mesa stripe being damaged or strained.
