Abstract

Abstract The production of a thin film semiconductor laser array device having a gate wiring on an insulated substrate. The gate wiring has an inner gate wiring having a first metal layer formed on the insulated substrate and a second metal layer whose etching speed is faster than that of the first metal layer, the first metal layer and the second metal layer being overlapped so as to constitute a dual structure, and an outer gate wiring covering the inner gate wiring.
