ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor laser device comprises an n-type GaAs layer, an n-type GaAlAs layer disposed on the n-type GaAs layer, a laser active layer consisting of a p-type GaAs layer disposed on the n-type GaAlAs layer, a first p-type GaAlAs layer disposed on the laser active layer, the surface of which opposing said laser active layer is a periodically corrugated surface, a second p-type GaAlAs layer disposed on the periodically corrugated surface of the first p-type GaAlAs layer, a p-type GaAs layer disposed on the second p-type GaAlAs layer, and electrodes disposed on the n-type and p-type GaAs layers, respectively, and having a very low threshold value for laser oscillation.
