ABSTRACT:
A first insulation film is provided on the x axis side surfaces of a mesa on a substrate of a surface emitting semiconductor laser, and a second insulation film is provided on the y axis side surfaces of the mesa. The x and y axes are orthogonal to each other. The first and second insulation films are formed at different temperatures, so that stress applied to an active layer is different between the x and y axis directions. Consequently, the polarization of an output light is controlled to be on a selected axis from the x and y axis directions.
