Abstract:
A semiconductor laser device that enables flip-chip assembly by having an embedding section around a mesa section, and that has an improved emission lifetime, as well as a photoelectric converter and an optical information processing unit each having such a semiconductor laser device. The semiconductor laser device includes: a mesa section including an active layer, and having a first electrode on a top surface; an embedding section covering the mesa section, and having a first connection aperture that reaches the first electrode; and a first wiring provided on the embedding section overlaying the first connection aperture, the first wiring being electrically connected to the first electrode through the first connection aperture.

Claim (Index 1):
A surface emitting semiconductor device comprising:\n a semiconductor structure having a mesa structure, the semiconductor structure comprising an active layer and a DBR layer; a first insulating film on a side surface and the top surface of the mesa structure, and having a first aperture; a second insulating film on the side surface and the top surface of the mesa structure, the first insulating film being between the mesa structure and the second insulating film, the second insulating film having a second aperture; a first wiring on the second insulating film, the first wiring (a) having a length along a first direction equal to or longer than a radius of the mesa structure along the first direction, (b) being in the first aperture and the second aperture, (c) extending across opposite sides of the second aperture along the first direction in a first cross section, and (d) being electrically connected to the mesa structure through the first aperture and the second aperture; and a second wiring including (e) a first portion electrically connected to the semiconductor structure at a first contact region and (f) a second portion electrically connected to the semiconductor structure at a second contact region that is distinct from the first contact region, wherein, the first aperture and the second aperture are between the first contact region and the second contact region along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction in a plan view, and the second wiring extends in a third direction from a bonding portion to the mesa structure in the plan view, and the second wiring further includes an excess wiring section that extends beyond a center line of the mesa structure in the third direction, the center line being defined as a line through a center point of the mesa structure and extending to the second direction in the plan view.
