Abstract
Abstract The present invention provides a semiconductor laser device which comprises a metallic stem, a cap mounted to one surface of the stem, a mounting block arranged to project from the one surface of the stem into the cap, and a semiconductor laser chip by the mounting block. The stem comprises a first stem member and a second member joined to the first stem member in lamination thereto. The first stem member is formed with a cutting line partially surrounding a portion of the first stem member. The mounting block is provided by bending the partially surrounded portion into the cap to leave a corresponding perforation in the first stem member.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
120 words
A semiconductor laser device comprising: a metallic stem; a cap mounted to one surface of the stem; a mounting block arranged to project from said one surface of the stem into the cap; and a semiconductor laser chip carried by the mounting block; wherein: the stem comprises a first stem member located closer to the mounting block, and a second stem member laminated to the first stem member on the side thereof away from the mounting block; the first stem member being formed with a cutting line partially surrounding a portion of the first stem member; the mounting block being provided by bending the partially surrounded portion into the cap to leave a corresponding perforation in the first stem member.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
120 words
A semiconductor laser device comprising: a metallic stem; a cap mounted to one surface of the stem; a mounting block arranged to project from said one surface of the stem into the cap; and a semiconductor laser chip carried by the mounting block; wherein: the stem comprises a first stem member located closer to the mounting block, and a second stem member laminated to the first stem member on the side thereof away from the mounting block; the first stem member being formed with a cutting line partially surrounding a portion of the first stem member; the mounting block being provided by bending the partially surrounded portion into the cap to leave a corresponding perforation in the first stem member.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
The laser device according to claim 1, further comprising a first lead connected to the second stem member, and second and third leads which are mutually spaced and insulatingly penetrate through the second stem member into the cap.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
The laser device according to claim 2, wherein the mounting block is generally rectangular and has a width smaller than the spacing between the second and third leads.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
The laser device according to claim 2, wherein the mounting block has a pair of lateral portions retreated to clear the second and third leads.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
24 words
The laser device according to claim 4, wherein the mounting block has a width larger than the spacing between the second and third leads.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
44 words
The laser device according to claim 4, wherein the mounting block is generally trapezoidal with a smaller top width and a larger root width, at least the root width of the mounting block being larger than the spacing between the second and third leads.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
38 words
The laser device according to claim 1, wherein the second stem member has a projection directed into the perforation of the first stem member, the projection having an inclined mounting surface for mounting a laser emission monitoring photodiode.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
31 words
The laser device according to claim 1, wherein the first and second stem members are generally discal and joined together by performing resistance welding along the entire circumference of the stem.
