Abstract
A vertical cavity surface emitting semiconductor laser (VCSEL) device has p-type and n-type DBRs sandwiching therebetween a resonant cavity including an active layer. Each the DBRs has a plurality of layer pairs each including a AlGaAs high-reflectivity layer and an AlGaAs low-reflectivity layer and an AlGaAs slope content layer interposed between each of the high-reflectivity layers and adjacent low-reflectivity layer. The slope content layers in the vicinity of the active layer has an Al content x3 wherein 0<x3≦0.3 and 0.55≦x3<1 and an impurity concentration of 3×10cmor above.
