ABSTRACT:
A method for manufacturing a semiconductor laser device is provided in which deformation of a cap layer and a third cladding layer is inhibited and a protruding portion of an intermediate layer is removed. By coating outer peripheral portions facing an intermediate layer of a third cladding layer and an etching stop layer with a resist, inevitably removing at least the third cladding layer, and etching the intermediate layer and a cap layer in a second etching step, a protruding portion of the intermediate layer is removed, and the cap layer is prevented from being etched undesirably, whereby a ridge portion without irregularities with respect to a direction substantially perpendicular to a lamination direction is produced, and increase of an operation voltage and decrease of external differential quantum efficiency are prevented.
