Abstract

A semiconductor laser device may include a structure formed separately of a light radiating region, and an electrode for injecting carriers over the light radiating region. A gap is formed between the light radiating region and the structure to introduce an air-bridge structure into the aforementioned electrode so that the capacitive component resulting from a presence of the electrode is drastically reduced.
