Abstract
A method of fabricating an integrated semiconductor laser device includes preparing a polygonal heat sink having side surfaces, and die-bonding semiconductor laser chips to the side surfaces of the heat sink. Therefore, the semiconductor laser chips are accurately arranged at such positions that laser beams emitted from these laser chips are parallel to each other and partially overlap each other. In addition, the semiconductor laser chips are integrated without unwanted contact of a conductive material used for the die-bonding to an active layer exposed at a facet of each laser chip. Further, since the complicated process of die-bonding a laser chip on another laser chip is dispensed with, the fabricating method is easily automated.
