Abstract
A high-power low-noise semiconductor laser device required for light sources for an erasable optical disc is a self-sustained pulsating semiconductor laser device in which an MQW structure is used for an active layer, and thus a kink output power and a light output power by which the self-pulsation is enabled are increased to 10 mW or more and noise is reduced. Another semiconductor laser device of a self-pulsation type has impurities that are doped in the active layer to reduce the self-pulsating frequency to obtain a low-noise characteristic even if higher optical feedback occurs. 259
