Method for manufacturing a multi-wavelength integrated semiconductor laser

摘要

An object is to provide a multi-wavelength integrated semiconductor laser device which can reduce variations in emission point distance, can be formed by simplified manufacturing processes, and can provide improve electric characteristics. A first semiconductor laser element 100 having an active layer AL1 for emitting a laser beam of a first wavelength from its light-emitting point X1 and a second semiconductor laser element 200 having an active layer AL2 for emitting a laser beam of a second wavelength from its light-emitting point X2 are bonded to each other via an adhesive layer MC made of metal. At least either one of the semiconductor laser elements has a ridge waveguide made of an n-type semiconductor. The semiconductor laser elements 100 and 200 are bonded via the metal adhesive layer MC at the sides of their respective p-type semiconductors. A submount SUB is bonded to the first semiconductor laser element 100 via metal at a side where its ridge waveguide is formed.
