Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a laser source including a submount, an electrode portion formed on the submount, and a semiconductor laser fixed to the electrode portion by means of an adhesive portion, capable of improving the position accuracy of a laser beam emission portion of the semiconductor laser in the height direction. The electrode portion including an electrode for an active region, an electrode for a phase adjustment region, and an electrode for a DBR region is formed on the submount. A plurality of stopper portions also are formed on the submount. The semiconductor laser is fixed to the electrode portion (the electrode for an active region, electrode for a phase adjustment region, and electrode for a DBR region) by means of solder as an adhesive while being in contact with the stopper portions.
