Abstract
A terahertz quantum cascade laser device includes a substrate, q semiconductor stacked body and a first electrode. The semiconductor stacked body includes an active layer and a first clad layer. The active layer is provided on the substrate and is configured to emit infrared laser light by an intersubband optical transition. The first clad layer is provided on the active layer. A ridge waveguide is provided in the semiconductor stacked body. A first distributed feedback region and a second distributed feedback region are provided at an upper surface of the first clad layer to be separated from each other along an extension direction of the ridge waveguide. The first electrode is provided at the upper surface of the first clad layer. A planar size of the first distributed feedback region is smaller than a planar size of the second distributed feedback region.
