Abstract

The optical integratd circuit concerns a semiconductor laser and has a waveguide with a multiple heterojunction. A mesa thin-layer oscillator (10) and passive or active optical elements are formed as a unit on the wave-guide (20) and connected to it via a direction coupler (21). At the wavelength of the laser emission to be transmitted the waveguide operates with negligible losses. Preferably the oscillator contains a gallium arsenide layer (11), Alz1-zAs layer (12), an active layer (13) of AlxGa1-x, an electrode (14) on the GaAs layer, and reflecting mirror surfaces (16,16a), which are formed on the oscillating and surfaces with intermediate insulating films (15,15a). The direction coupler contains an AlzGa1-z. As layer (21), an AlGaAsSb layer, or an InGaAs layer.
