Provided is a
red light semiconductor laser with high reliability. The emission
wavelength of the
red light semiconductor laser with high reliability ranges from 630 nm to 690 nm. The
red light semiconductor laser with high reliability structurally comprises a substrate, a lower limiting layer, a lower
waveguide layer, a
quantum well active area, an upper
waveguide layer, an upper limiting layer and an
ohmic contact layer from bottom to top in sequence.
Doping is carried out on the
waveguide layer on the basis of the structure of a traditional semiconductor laser, the active area is separated from a PN junction, the highfield of the PN junction will attract the movable defects of the active area, and therefore the reliability of the laser is improved. Meanwhile, the
doping atoms of the upper waveguide layer can prevent the high-
doping-density atoms of the upper limiting layer from being diffused to the active area, and the power attenuation of the laser during continuous working is reduced. Due to the fact that
doping is carried out on the waveguide layer, the series resistance of the laser is reduced, conversion efficiency is improved, the amount of generated
joule heat is reduced, and the reliability of the red
light laser during long-term working is further improved.
