Abstract

Disclosed is a semiconductor laser device comprising a semiconductor assembly which serves to effect laser oscillation and in which first, second and third semiconductor layers are successively stacked on a predetermined semiconductor body, at least the first and third semiconductor layers being small in the refractive index relative to the second semiconductor layer and great in the forbidden band gap relative thereto and having conductivity types opposite to each other, and means to spread depletion regions within at least a part of a current path for effecting the laser oscillation and in a manner to intersect with the current path. A small-sized semiconductor laser device capable of fast modulation can be realized.
