Title:
MANUFACTURING III NITRIDE SEMICONDUCTOR LASER DIODE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3905629
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the flatness of a resonator end face by forming the resonator end face of a laser through converged ion beam etching.
SOLUTION: A resonator end face is etched with a converged ion beam in 3 stages. In the first stage, the beam current is 4.722 nA, a process range has a width D=32 μm, width W1=5 μm and process depth down to a substrate, and the tilt angle is 3.5°. In the second stage, the beam current is 646 pA, a process range has a length of 32 μm, width W2=1.26 μm and process depth down to the substrate, and tilt angle is 1.5°. In the third stage, the beam current is 130 pA, a process range has a length of 32 μm, width W3=1.2 μm and process depth down to the substrate, and the tilt angle is 1.5°. Thus the etching is done under changed conditions in the order of regions P1, P2, P3. Through such etchings, the flatness of the resonator end face can be improved.
