Abstract

Provided is a red light semiconductor laser with high reliability. The emission wavelength of the red light semiconductor laser with high reliability ranges from 630 nm to 690 nm. The red light semiconductor laser with high reliability structurally comprises a substrate, a lower limiting layer, a lower waveguide layer, a quantum well active area, an upper waveguide layer, an upper limiting layer and an ohmic contact layer from bottom to top in sequence. Doping is carried out on the waveguide layer on the basis of the structure of a traditional semiconductor laser, the active area is separated from a PN junction, the highfield of the PN junction will attract the movable defects of the active area, and therefore the reliability of the laser is improved. Meanwhile, the doping atoms of the upper waveguide layer can prevent the high-doping-density atoms of the upper limiting layer from being diffused to the active area, and the power attenuation of the laser during continuous working is reduced. Due to the fact that doping is carried out on the waveguide layer, the series resistance of the laser is reduced, conversion efficiency is improved, the amount of generated joule heat is reduced, and the reliability of the red light laser during long-term working is further improved.
