Abstract
A semiconductor laser device is a vernier-type wavelength-tunable semiconductor laser device including an optical resonator, constituted by first and second reflective elements having reflection comb spectra in which reflection peaks are arranged on a wavelength axis in a substantially periodic manner and having mutually different periods. At least one of the first and second reflective elements has a sampled grating structure having a reflection comb spectrum in which reflection phases at the respective reflection peaks are aligned and the intensity of a reflection peak outside a set laser emission wavelength bandwidth is lower than the intensity of a reflection peak within the laser emission wavelength bandwidth.
