    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor luminous element that is easy to fabricate by a semiconductor process and displays satisfactory performance due to excellent crystallinity. SOLUTION: This is a semiconductor luminous element provided with a crystal layer that is selectively grown at an annular opening part formed in a mask layer and has S-planes or the planes that are substantially equivalent to the S-planes tilted to the mask-layer formed plane. In the plane parallel to the S-plane or the plane that is substantially equivalent to the S-plane, the first conductive type layer, an active layer and the second conductive type layer are formed. The crystal layer has an annular top part along the annular opening part, for example, with both sides that are the S-planes or the planes that are substantially equivalent to the S-planes tilted to the mask-formed plane, or the crystal is grown in such a form as to bury the zone surrounded by the annular opening part to have a polygonal cone shape.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a vapor phase growing method for nitride semiconductor, whereby a uniform crystal layer can be obtained with a high reproducibility by the vapor phase growth technology for gallium nitride compound semiconductors, etc. SOLUTION: The method comprises forming a protective film for obstructing the crystal growth on a substrate, so that a first nitride semiconductor layer is exposed through window regions partly opened through the protective film, starting the selective growth of a second nitride semiconductor layer from the first nitride semiconductor layer at a required growth starting temperature and rising the temperature over the growth starting temperature to continue the crystal growth. A uniform low-temperature grown layer is obtained by the vapor phase growth at a low temperature before temperature rise, and then a high-temperature grown layer is formed to form a uniform and highly reproducible crystal layer which reflects the uniformity of the low-temperature grown layer.

    Abstract: PURPOSE: To miniaturize the whole of an optical device by making the device to be a CLC (confocal laser coupler) constitution in which the return light from an irradiated part is returned in the same optical path as that of the excit light from a light emitting part and light receiv-parts are arranged in the vicinity of confocal positions of the return light. CONSTITUTION: A second light receiving part 15B by a photodetector PD receiving and detecting the return light by the optical path shifted from an outgoing path is provided in the vicinity of the convergent position of the shifted light. At this time, since a difference is generated in convergent positions of optical paths at the time the return light is transmitted and defracted in a mirror plate 20, the detecting of a focus servo signal by an astigmatic method is possible by the second light receiving part 15B by actively utilizing this. In this case, the simplifying and the miniaturizing of the constitution of the whole of the optical device are attained by forming a light emitting part 14 and a first light receiving part 15B on a common semiconductor substrate 16.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To make it possible to detect the intensity of a heating beam such as laser beam with a concurrent action to maintain the output utilization efficiency of the heating beam at high level, and enhance detection accuracy by introducing a beam intensity detection means through an area between a heating beam emission means and a recording material storage part during the non- heating time of a recording material. CONSTITUTION:If data is optically recorded, i.e., if a dye 22 is not heated by a laser beam, a light-receiving element 79 is inserted into an area between a laser 18 and a dye storage part 37 and the laser beam L having the same output intensity as an emitted laser beam L during recording is emitted directly into the light-receiving element 79 for front monitoring. A printer head 40 can use an output of the laser beam L required for the gasification of the dye on a recording sheet to a maximum extent without wasting the output. This is because the light-receiving element 79 is introduced into the proceeding direction of the emitted laser beam L only when the output is monitored, and the light- receiving element 79 is restored to an original position when recording data.

    Abstract: PURPOSE:To facilitate the leading-out of a signal for detecting the distance from an irradiation part, e.g. the leading-out of a servo signal for focusing control of light irradiation to the irradiation part. CONSTITUTION:The equipment is provided with the following; an irradiation part 2, an optical element 21 having a light emitting part 1 and a first light receiving part 41, at least a second light receiving part 42 and a third light receiving part 43 which put the optical element 21 between them and are arranged on both sides of the element 21, and a covergent means 3. The first light receiving part 41 is arranged in the vicinity of the light emitting part 1, and receives the return light LR of the emitted light from the light emitting part 1 which return light travels from the irradiation part 2 toward the light emitting part 1. The second light receiving part 42 and the third light receiving part 43 are arranged step-wise in the manner in which one of the distances between the light receiving surfaces of the parts 42, 43 and the irradiation part 2 is large and the other is small as compared with the distance between the light receiving surface of the first light receiving part 41 and the irradiation part 2.
