Semiconductor laser device
Abstract
Abstract A semiconductor laser device comprising a double-heterostructure multi-layered crystal containing an active layer (13) for laser oscillation. A striped etching-protective thin layer (15) is fomed on said double-heterostructure multi-layered crystal, a striped-mesa multi-layered crystal is formed on said striped etching-protective thin layer, and a burying layer is formed on said double-heterostructure multi-layered crystal outside of both the striped thin layer and the striped-mesa multi-layered crystal, thereby providing refractive index distributions within said active layer corresponding to the inside and the outside of said striped-mesa multi-layered crystal and providing a striped structure functioning as a current path composed of said striped-mesa multi-layered crystal.
