A semiconductor laser device has a support body constructed of a disk-shaped
section
and a columnar body formed in a central portion of this disk-shaped section, one
set of leads fit to this support body in an integrated manner, a semiconductor
laser element mounted on a reference surface of the columnar body, and a wire for
electrically connecting this semiconductor laser element with one of the leads.
The disk-shaped section of the support body has an opening therethrough. The one
set of leads are inserted through the opening, placed in position, and integrated
with the support body via a resin block filling the opening.
