SURFACE LIGHT EMITTING LASER, OPTICAL SCANNER, AND IMAGE FORMING APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a surface light emitting laser that has improved reliability by preventing entry of substances to a semiconductor layer from the outside.SOLUTION: The present surface light emitting laser is a surface light emitting laser including an active layer and a reflection mirror, and has an insulator film and a protective film including an organic element laminated on a wall surface that has an angle relative to a plane surface including an emission surface from which light from the surface light emitting laser is emitted.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
