Abstract

Abstract A semiconductor injection laser device is provided with a narrow junction structure between layers of GaAs and GaAlAs which confines current flow and optical energy to minimize losses. Particular doping and layer growing techniques provide a central strip or ridge in the p-n junction extending between the end faces of the two layers. In one variation the junction crosses an intermediate GaAs layer between two outer GaA1As layers.
