Patent ID: 11876349

Abstract:
To provide a semiconductor device, a semiconductor laser, and a method of producing a semiconductor device that are capable of sufficiently ensuring electrical connection between a transparent conductive layer and a semiconductor layer. [Solving Means] A semiconductor device according to the present technology includes: a first semiconductor layer; a second semiconductor layer; an active layer; and a transparent conductive layer. The first semiconductor layer has a first conductivity type, a stripe-shaped ridge being formed on a surface of the first semiconductor layer. A second width is not less than 0.99 and not more than 1.0 times a first width, a third width is not less than 0.96 and not more than 1.0 times the second width, and the transparent conductive layer has a uniform thickness within a range of not less than 90% and not more than 110% in a range of the third width, the first width being a width in a direction perpendicular to an extending direction of the ridge on a surface of the ridge on which the transparent conductive layer is formed, the second width being a width in the direction on a surface of the transparent conductive layer on a side of the ridge, the third width being a width in the direction on a surface opposite to the ridge of the transparent conductive layer.
