This means that a layer in which the GaAs substrate 1 is mixed with the reattached impurity Zn is formed on the interface between the lowermost GaAs buffer layer 11 of the AlGaInP-based semiconductor laser 18 and the GaAs substrate 1, and the internal resistance is increased, resulting in added calorie value
In the above cases, questions arise regarding the reliability of long-term operation

Abstract

The invention discloses a manufacturing method of a semiconductor laser device. An AlGaAs-based semiconductor laser 29 is formed on an n-type GaAs substrate 21, and thereafter, a non-doped GaAs protective layer 30 is formed. When the n-type substrate 21 is exposed by removing by etching a partial region of the AlGaAs-based semiconductor laser 29, an impurity Zn is prevented from evaporating from a p-type GaAs contact layer 28. The deterioration of the characteristic of contact with a p-type electrode as a consequence of a reduction in the carrier density of the p-type contact layer 28 can be prevented. Furthermore, the impurity evaporated from the p-type contact layer 28 can be prevented from readhering onto the exposed n-type substrate 21. A layer where the n-type GaAs substrate 21 and the readhering impurity are mixed with each other is not formed when an AlGaInP-based semiconductor laser 38 is succeedingly formed, and the reliability in long-term operation can be improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor laser device capable of forming a plurality of semiconductor lasers on one semiconductor substrate. Background technique [0002] In recent years, optical discs have been widely used, and there are many differences in their recording formats. When optically reading discs of different standards, lasers of different standards are required. For example, in order to read two types of optical discs, CD (Compact Disc) and DVD (Digital Video Disc), an infrared laser emitting at a wavelength around 780 nm and a red laser emitting at a wavelength around 650 nm are required. [0003] Under the above circumstances, it is necessary to provide a semiconductor laser device capable of emitting laser beams of two wavelengths in one package in order to reduce the size and cost of the pickup device. [0004] Furthermore, it is necessary to provide a semiconductor laser device capable of emittin...
