摘要:
A large Group III nitride crystal of high quality with few defects such as a distortion, a dislocation, and warping is produced by vapor phase epitaxy. A method for producing a Group III nitride crystal includes: a first Group III nitride crystal production process of producing a first Group III nitride crystal 1003 by liquid phase epitaxy; and a second Group III nitride crystal production process of producing a second Group III nitride crystal 1004 on the first crystal 1003 by vapor phase epitaxy. In the first Group III nitride crystal production process, the surfaces of seed crystals 1003a (preliminarily provided Group III nitride) are brought into contact with an alkali metal melt, a Group III element and nitrogen are cause to react with each other in a nitrogen-containing atmosphere in the alkali metal melt, and the Group III nitride crystals are bound together by growth of the Group III nitride crystals grown from the seed crystals 1003a to produce a first crystal 1003.

Diode type laser devices (diode layers) with nonabsorbing windows that are obtained in low confinement asymmetric structures, that consist of a waveguide and an active region, the action region being situated asymmetrically relative to the waveguide, at an extremity of the waveguide central layer, outside, at the margin or inside the waveguide central layer. The nonabsorbing mirrors can be obtained by the partial etching of the diode lasers layered structures, by this etching the active region being removed but in a large extent the layered structure remaining unaffected, and by the regrowth of a material with an adequate crystalline structure and nonabsorbing for the radiation emitted by the laser. By such a process the optical properties of the waveguide are reconstructed in a large extent, so that the radiation propagates to the mirror into a waveguide similar with the waveguide of the rest of the laser.

A semiconductor laser device having high performance, low operating voltage, and long service life, and a method for fabricating the same are provided. A semiconductor multilayer film including an active layer for use of laser beam oscillation is stacked on a substrate. Then a clad layer composed of p-type AlGaAs doped with a p-type impurity Mg, and a contact layer composed of p-type GaAs doped also with Mg are grown by an LPE growth process, and further a surface layer having a high-resistance portion present in the contact layer and low in carrier concentration is removed. The active layer for use of laser beam oscillation is arranged in a substantially center of an end surface from which the laser beam is emitted.

摘要:
A manufacturing method of a laser diode and a laser diode array is disclosed. A current blocking layer is very thinly grown on the surface of a mesa-like structure provided in a semiconductor substrate due to certain growing characteristics when forming the current blocking layer on the surface of a semiconductor substrate. Therefore, a channel is formed by utilizing the characteristic that GaAs is etched faster than AlGaAs when melt-etched by an unsaturated melted source. A first cladding layer and epitaxial layers are subsequently formed. The channel is easily formed by melt-etching because the current blocking layer is thinly formed on the surface of a reverse mesa-like structure of the semiconductor substrate. Also, a desired operation mode is freely determinable by controlling the Al mole concentration of the current blocking layer. In manufacturing the laser diode and laser diode array, melt-etching for forming the current blocking layers is performed by one epitaxy step. Accordingly, the surface of a mesa-like structure on the substrate is protected from oxidation or defects after melt-etching, thereby improving the production yield and reliability of a given device.
