ABSTRACT:
The semiconductor laser of the present invention includes a first conductivity-type cladding layer, a second conductivity-type cladding layer having at least one ridge structure extending in the direction of a resonator, an active layer disposed between the two cladding layers and a current blocking layer provided so as to cover at least a side face of the ridge structure. The current blocking layer includes a hydrogenated first dielectric film. In the structure having the current blocking layer formed of a dielectric, a light confining efficiency is enhanced, a threshold value of laser oscillation decreases, and current properties during the oscillation at a high temperature and with a high power are improved.
