In a semiconductor laser apparatus, semiconductor laser devices are
mounted on a loading face of a radiation base portion produced from a
radiation material in a mount board, and the radiation base portion and a
cap portion constitute an envelope surrounding the semiconductor laser
devices. Further, the radiation base portion and interconnections formed
on and an extending face of the radiation base portion constitute an
external connection terminal. Therefore, heat generated by the
semiconductor laser devices is efficiently transferred to the radiation
base portion produced from a radiation material. Further, constituting
the external connection terminal allows a leadless configuration to be
implemented. Thus, a semiconductor laser apparatus which is sufficient in
radiation characteristics and is capable of supporting a low-profile
specification is provided.
