In a specific application process, the semiconductor laser integrates the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 of the passive region in a resonant cavity by means of butt-joint growth, that is, a double-layer waveguide is integrated in the passive region. When the current injected into the active region is used for realizing light gain to realize lasing and outputting, the light passes through the double-layer waveguide of the passive region, so that when the light field is coupled to the lower-layer waveguide and reaches the output end face, the size of the light spot in the vertical direction is effectively increased, the near-field light spot is expanded, the far-field divergence angle is reduced, the light beam output quality is improved, the light beam adjustment is facilitated, the optical fiber coupling efficiency is improved, and the packaging coupling cost is reduced. Meanwhile, when the optical field is transmitted from the double-layer waveguide of the passive region to the single-layer waveguide of the active region (i.e., the upper waveguide layer 7, the lower waveguide layer 5 and the multiple quantum well layer 6), compared with the case of only using the single-layer waveguide, the loss is increased, so that the loss of the external feedback light is increased, and the anti-reflection capability of the laser is improved.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, the butt end faces formed by the active region and the passive region in a pointing manner form an included angle with the vertical plane. Preferably, the included angle theta is 10-20 degrees, so that butt joint end face reflection caused by the difference of refractive indexes between the two waveguides is avoided, and the influence of the butt joint end face reflection on a lasing longitudinal mode of the semiconductor laser is reduced.
Furthermore, the length of the active region is 120-2000 μm, and the length of the passive region is 20-100 μm.
Furthermore, the refractive indexes of the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 are 3.4-3.5, and the refractive index of the waveguide spacing layer 15 is 3.18-3.24.
Further, the multiple quantum well layer 6 is an InGaAlAs multiple quantum well layer or an InGaAsP multiple quantum well layer, both the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 are InGaAsP waveguide layers, and the material band gap of the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 is greater than that of the multiple quantum well layer 6.
Further, the thicknesses of the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 are both 150-400 nm, and the thickness of the waveguide spacing layer 15 is 200-800 nm.
Further, as shown in fig. 1, an anti-reflection film 18 is disposed on the end surface of the resonant cavity corresponding to the passive region, and a high-reflection film 19 is disposed on the end surface of the resonant cavity corresponding to the active region. The reflectivity of the high reflection film 19 is 85% -95%, and the reflectivity of the antireflection film 18 is 0.1% -0.5%, so that the permeability of one end face is enhanced, and photons emitted from the outside of the resonant cavity are converted into required laser.
Simulation was performed on the semiconductor laser device according to the above embodiment, and the simulation results shown in fig. 5 to 8 were obtained. It is apparent from fig. 5 that in the process of propagating the light field energy from the active segment to the passive segment, the transverse light field expands in the vertical and epitaxial directions, and the center of the light field mode moves downward. It can be seen from fig. 6 and 7 that when the light field is transmitted from the active region to the passive region, the light field energy gradually diffuses downward, so that in the vertical direction, the light spot size of the end surface mode field of the passive region is obviously increased relative to that of the end surface mode field of the active region, and the light spot of the end surface mode field of the passive region is closer to a circular light spot. It can be seen from fig. 8 that, after the passive-region double-layer waveguide structure is adopted, the divergence angle of the far field of the semiconductor laser is reduced from 35 ° of the single-layer waveguide to 21 °, and the far-field spot characteristic is greatly improved.
In a second aspect, according to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing a semiconductor laser, including:
s1, epitaxially growing a first lower buffer layer 2, a grating layer 3, a first confinement layer 4, a lower waveguide layer 5, a multiple quantum well layer 6, an upper waveguide layer 7, and a second confinement layer 8 on the substrate 1 in this order.
S2, manufacturing a silicon dioxide mask by utilizing photoetching, covering the active region, and etching the first lower buffer layer 2, the grating layer 3, the first limiting layer 4, the lower waveguide layer 5, the multiple quantum well layer 6, the upper waveguide layer 7 and the second limiting layer 8 of the passive region by a dry etching and humidifying method.
S3, sequentially growing the second lower buffer layer 13, the first waveguide layer 14, the waveguide spacer layer 15, the second waveguide layer 16 and the first upper buffer layer 17 by secondary epitaxy in MOCVD.
S4, removing the silicon dioxide mask, and continuing to epitaxially grow the etch stop layer 9, the upper cladding layer 10, and the ohmic contact layer 11.
And S5, manufacturing a photoresist mask by photoetching to cover the ohmic contact layer 11 of the active region, and etching away the ohmic contact layer 11 of the inactive region by using a wet etching method.

The semiconductor laser prepared by the method integrates the first waveguide layer 14 and the second waveguide layer 16 of the passive region in a butt-joint growing mode, namely, a double-layer waveguide is integrated in the passive region. When the current injected into the active region is used for realizing light gain to realize lasing and outputting, the light passes through the double-layer waveguide of the passive region, so that when the light field is coupled to the lower-layer waveguide and reaches the output end face, the size of the light spot in the vertical direction is effectively increased, the near-field light spot is expanded, the far-field divergence angle is reduced, the light beam output quality is improved, the light beam adjustment is facilitated, the optical fiber coupling efficiency is improved, and the packaging coupling cost is reduced. Meanwhile, when the optical field is transmitted from the double-layer waveguide of the passive region to the single-layer waveguide of the active region (i.e., the upper waveguide layer 7, the lower waveguide layer 5 and the multiple quantum well layer 6), compared with the case of only using the single-layer waveguide, the loss is increased, so that the loss of the external feedback light is increased, and the anti-reflection capability of the laser is improved.
Furthermore, the etching depth of the dry etching and the wet etching is 1000-2000 nm.
