Abstract
A semiconductor laser having a mesa stripe structure with two sides thereof buried by layers comprises a p-InP buried layer, a p-InP current blocking layer, an InGaAsP current blocking layer, and an n-InP current blocking layer. The n-InP current blocking layer is electrically independent by being isolated by the p-InP current blocking layer and the p-InP buried layer which are in touch with each other at the two sides of the mesa stripe structure. With this arrangement, the leakage current is reduced enabling to improve temperature characteristics even at a temperature above 85 degrees.
