Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to a semiconductor laser device.
- a semiconductor light emitting device including a light emitting diode (LED) as a light source is known (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
- LED elements since semiconductor light emitting devices use LED elements, it is difficult to respond to increases in the output of the light source. Therefore, instead of the LED element, it may be possible to respond to higher output by using a semiconductor laser element such as a vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL).
- VCSEL vertical cavity surface emitting laser
- the laser light emitted from the semiconductor laser element has higher directivity than the light emitted from the LED element. Therefore, semiconductor laser devices are generally suitable for applications requiring high directivity. On the contrary, in fields where semiconductor light emitting devices using LED elements as light sources are applied, a wider directivity angle is generally required. For this reason, semiconductor laser elements are generally not suitable for use in semiconductor light-emitting devices that use LED elements as light sources. As described above, it is difficult to achieve both a high output light source and a wide directivity angle.
- a semiconductor laser device that solves the above problems includes a substrate having a substrate surface, a semiconductor laser element provided on the substrate surface, a sealing surface facing the same side as the substrate surface, and a semiconductor laser device that intersects with the sealing surface. a first sealing end surface, and a translucent sealing resin for sealing the semiconductor laser element, the sealing resin includes a diffusion material that diffuses light, and the semiconductor laser element includes a first light emitting surface that emits laser light toward the first sealed end surface.
