Abstract: On a substrate (511) of n-type GaAs are sequentially
formed an n-type cladding layer (512) (AlGaAs, Al content x =
0.07, thickness t = 2.86 µm), an n-type optical waveguide layer
(513) (GaAs, t = 0.49 µm), an n-type carrier blocking layer (514)
(AlGaAs, x = 0.40, t = 0.03 µm), an active layer (515) (composed
of an In 0.18 Ga 0.82 As quantum well layer and a GaAs barrier layer),
a p-type carrier blocking layer (516) (AlGaAs, x = 0.40, t =
0.03 µm), a p-type optical waveguide layer (517) (GaAs, t = 0.49
µm), a p-type cladding layer (518) (AlGaAs, x = 0.20, t = 1.08
µm), and a p-type cap layer (520) (GaAs) in which a pair of n-type
current blocking layers (519) (GaAs) are buried. In this
semiconductor laser, the fundamental guided mode can propagate
in the middle layers, while the first-order guided mode leaks into the
cladding layer having the refractive index nc2. As a result, only the
fundamental guided mode can propagate with low loss thereby inhibiting
the occurrence of wavelength separation in oscillation spectrum. With
this construction, the occurrence of a wavelength spit due to a
higher-order mode can be inhibited thereby stabilizing a higher
power operation.

amount of a base or an acid is added to the storage tank,
extrapolated from the previous step, thus attaining the
zero electrical charge point of the volume stored in the
