Abstract

A semiconductor laser according to the present invention includes a first reflective region and a second reflective region disposed opposite to the first reflective region in a predetermined direction of an optical axis. The first reflective region has a plurality of gain waveguides each including an active layer and a plurality of refractive-index controlling waveguides each having a first diffraction grating formed therein. The gain waveguides and the refractive-index controlling waveguides are alternately arranged at a predetermined pitch in the direction of the optical axis. The second reflective region has a second diffraction grating.
