Abstract

A semiconductor laser device includes a substrate, a p-type cladding layer and a n-type cladding layer provided on the substrate, and an active layer provided between the p-type cladding layer and the n-type cladding layer, having at least two barrier layers and at least two well layers, the barrier layers and the well layers being disposed alternately. Band offsets in a conduction band between the barrier layers and the well layers are provided so as to increase from the n-type cladding layer aide toward the p-type cladding layer side.
