    摘要: Since the semiconductor devices including a stacked structure of group-III-V alloy semiconductor layers different in the kind of group-V constituent atom form the so-called band line-up of type II, band discontinuity in the heterostructure has impeded smooth transport of carriers and deteriorated device characteristics.According to the present invention, an energy band structure that makes it possible, in one energy band (e.g., a valence band), to smoothly transport carriers of one of two kinds (e.g., holes) by connecting energy discontinuity in an inclined form or stepwise, and at the same, in the other energy band (e.g., a conduction band), to maintain a barrier effect for carriers of the other kind (e.g., electrons) by retaining energy discontinuity, can be realized for improved transport characteristics of carriers at the heterointerface forming the band line-up of type II.

    摘要: The invention provides a manufacturing method of a laser diode having buried grown layer with less crystal defects and with low consumption power and having high reliability in a buried heterostructure laser diode using an InGaAlAs type material as an active layer, by preventing the inhibition of burying and regrowing of the active layer caused by oxidation of Al contained in the active layer. A manufacturing method of a semiconductor laser diode and the active layer comprises a material at least containing Al and having a buried hetero-cross sectional structure, formation of the buried heterostructure, comprising the steps of fabricating the active layer into a stripe shape or mesa shape by etching including at least wet etching, cleaning the stripe-shape sidewall of the core layer with a gas containing chlorine or other halogen element in a crystal growing apparatus and burying the active layer in the semiconductor.

    摘要: In order to form a wavelength tunable laser capable of tuning a wave over a wide range by simple control means, a thin film heater is mounted either over an upper electrode of a ridge waveguide semiconductor laser having ridge waveguides on a semiconductor substrate or over the semiconductor substrate and on both sides of the ridge waveguide with a gap of a few &mgr;m. By controlling a current passed to the thin film heater, the oscillation wavelength of the semiconductor laser is tuned. In the case where the thin film heater is mounted over an upper electrode of a ridge waveguide, a nonconductor is formed on both sides of the ridge conductor to more efficiently enable heat from the heater to reach an active layer of the ridge waveguide more efficiently.
