Abstract
A semiconductor laser which does not cause a sudden failure due to an electric surge. A ridge that is formed by a GaAs buffer layer, an n-InGaP cladding layer which is lattice-matched to a GaAs substrate, a strained-quantum well active layer, a p-InGaP cladding layer which is lattice-matched to the GaAs substrate, a p-GaAs waveguide layer, a p-InGaP cladding layer which is lattice-matched to the GaAs substrate, and a p-GaAs cap layer is constructed on the n-GaAs substrate by being buried therein by an n-InGaP current-blocking layer. A device stripe is constructed by a current-injected region in the device and current-non-injected regions near facets.
