Abstract
A nitride semiconductor laser device includes an n-type AlGaN clad layer, a GaN layer, a first InGaN light guide layer, a light-emitting layer, a second InGaN light guide layer, a nitride semiconductor intermediate layer, a p-type AlGaN layer, and a p-type AlGaN clad layer stacked in this order on a nitride semiconductor substrate, wherein the n-type AlGaN clad layer has an Al composition ratio of 3-5% and a thickness of 1.8-2.5 μm; the first and second InGaN light guide layers have an In composition ratio of 3-6%; the first light guide layer has a thickness of 120-160 nm and greater than that of the second light guide layer; and the p-type AlGaN layer is in contact with the p-type clad layer and has an Al composition ratio of 10-35% and greater than that of the p-type clad layer.
