Abstract

A semiconductor laser device of this invention has a built-in passive guiding mechanism along the junction plane by growing planar double hetero (DH) layers on a grooved or projected substrate. It operates stably in the lowest transverse mode and provides light-output versus current characteristics fee of either kinks or any anomalies.
