Semiconductor laser device

摘要

Disclosed is a semiconductor laser device capable of minimizing the spot diameter of a laser light and also capable of improving the transmittance of light passing through a fine aperture. The semiconductor laser device comprises a light absorption film provided with a fine aperture on the outside of the light-emitting surface of the semiconductor laser element. The aperture is formed such that the aperture width W1 in a direction parallel to the polarizing direction of the laser light is smaller than half the oscillation wavelength of the semiconductor laser element, and the aperture width W2 in a direction perpendicular to the polarizing direction is larger than the aperture width W1.
