Abstract
A semiconductor laser device comprises a compound semiconductor substrate, a first cladding layer formed on the substrate, an active layer formed on the first cladding layer, made of In.sub.1-y (Ga.sub.1-x Al.sub.x).sub.y P material (0.ltoreq.x<1, 0.ltoreq.y<1), and a second cladding layer formed on the active layer. These first cladding layer, the active layer, and the second cladding layer forms a double heterostructure. A lattice constant of the active layer is larger than that of the substrate by 0.3% or more. The lattice constants of the first and second cladding layers are substantially equal to that of the substrate.
