Abstract

A semiconductor laser having a stripe-like lasing region, wherein the structure of the lasing region such as the mechanism of optical guiding of the lateral mode control structure is made different between the central portion in the lasing region and portions close to facets, in order to reduce optical feedback induced noise and astigmatism, and to facilitate the manufacture thereof.
