Zusammenfassung:A semiconductor laser comprises a laser diode (LD) mounted on a semiconductor chip which has a monitoring photodiode (PD) formed therein so as to monitor the laser light output of the laser diode (LD). The cathode of the laser diode (LD) and the anode of the monitoring photodiode (PD) are connected together, and a suitable forward voltage for the laser diode (LD) and reverse voltage for the monitor photodiode (PD) is provided by a single power supply.
