Abstract
A semiconductor laser device includes: a semiconductor laser chip which is composed of a semiconductor substrate and a plurality of semiconductor layers stacked on an element formation face of the semiconductor substrate and which outputs an irradiation light for irradiating an optical disk; and a light receiving element which receives the irradiation light reflected by the optical disk as a feedback light. The semiconductor laser chip includes on one face thereof an electrode facing an optical element and is fixed in a package so that at least one of sub-beams reflected by the optical disk is incident on the one face. A chip exposing portion for exposing a region of the one face where the sub-beam is incident is formed in the electrode.
