Problems solved by technology

[0009] (1) Problem 1: Since the semiconductor laser element 101 is installed in the recess 105 on the light receiving element substrate 103, the heat generated by the light receiving element substrate 103 directly has a bad influence on the characteristics of the semiconductor laser element 101.
Due to the influence of this Joule heat, the chip temperature of the semiconductor laser element 101 rises, causing characteristic deterioration such as a decrease in light output and an increase in operating current.
In terms of methods for suppressing the influence of heat, there are methods of increasing the volume of the concave portion 105 where the semiconductor 101 is mounted, and methods of arranging the light receiving element 104 and the IV amplifier as far as possible from the semiconductor element 105. The area of ​​the light-receiving element substrate 103 is increased, resulting in an increase in cost
[0011] (2) Problem 2: Since the semiconductor laser element 101 is not sealed and is integrated with the light-receiving element substrate 103, organic gases in the atmosphere, hydrocarbons and other substances attached to the light-receiving element substrate 103 Organic gases generated from organic matter etc. adhere to the surface of the semiconductor laser element 101 and cause characteristic degradation

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical semiconductor device capable of recording, reproducing, and erasing information signals on an information medium such as an optical disk, and a manufacturing method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, optical discs represented by DVDs (Digital Video Discs) have been used in various fields such as audio equipment, video recorders, and computers because they can record a large amount of information at a high density. Moreover, the development and production of optical disc devices with larger capacity and higher density, such as BD (Blu-ray disc) and HD-DVD, which can record and reproduce information through blue laser light, and are considered to be further popularized in the future . Since the pickup devices incorporated in these optical disc devices are mounted on devices such as portable computers and car stereos, there are strong demands for miniaturization, thinning, and vibration res...
