Abstract
Disclosed is a distributed feedback semiconductor laser diode device capable of operating at a high output ratio of forward/backward optical power while ensuring satisfactory stability of single-mode oscillation. The distributed feedback semiconductor laser diode device is configured to include a diffraction grating formed in an optical waveguide thereof. In a partial region of the optical waveguide, there is formed an alternately repetitive pattern of a grating part possessing a distributive refractivity characteristic and a no-grating space part possessing a uniform refractivity characteristic. The no-grating space part possessing a uniform refractivity characteristic has an optical path length that is half an integral multiple of a wavelength of laser oscillation, and the grating part possessing a distributive refractivity characteristic includes at least five grating periods.
