A laser diode chip is described, comprising including:

Laser diode chip

A semiconductor laser including an active zone and a waveguide, wherein the active zone includes an active layer configured to generate electromagnetic radiation during operation of the semiconductor laser, the waveguide is configured to guide the electromagnetic radiation generated during operation of the semiconductor laser within the semiconductor laser, the waveguide includes a subregion formed from a compound semiconductor material, wherein a proportion of a material of the compound semiconductor material gradually increases in the entire subregion along the vertical direction toward the active zone so that a refractive index of the subregion gradually decreases toward the active zone, and the proportion is an aluminum proportion or a phosphorus proportion.

Semiconductor laser

In a method for producing a laser diode, a number of laser diodes are produced on a wafer. The wafer is broken down into wafer pieces, each wafer piece having a plurality of laser diodes being arranged side by side. One wafer piece is inserted into a first mount that includes a first covering element overlapping a front face of the wafer piece and shadowing a bottom area of the front face of the wafer piece. A minor layer is deposited on an unshadowed upper area of the wafer piece's front face. The wafer piece is inserted into a second mount, which includes a second covering element that shadows the minor layer of the upper area of the front face. An electrically conductive contact layer is deposited on an unshadowed bottom area of the wafer piece's front face. The wafer piece is subsequently broken down into individual laser diodes.

Method for producing a laser diode, mount and laser diode

A method of producing a semiconductor laser element includes A) providing at least one carrier assemblage having a multiplicity of carriers for the semiconductor laser elements, C) providing at least one laser bar having a multiplicity of semiconductor laser diodes which include a common growth substrate and a semiconductor layer sequence grown thereon, D) fitting the laser bar on a top side of the carrier assemblage, and E) singulating to form the semiconductor laser elements after D).
