Abstract

The present invention provides a semiconductor laser module in which parasitic inductance due to the bonding wire is removed, accordingly, the high frequency performance thereof can be enhanced. The laser module of the present invention has a sub-mount, on which the semiconductor laser diode is installed and transmission lines for supplying the signal to the laser diode is formed. The transmission lines on the sub-mount are directly connected to corresponding lead pins provided in the base of the package without any bonding wires. Between the lead pins and under the sub-mount is provided a photo diode for monitoring light emitted from the laser diode.
