A semiconductor laser device includes a red-light-emission portion and an infrared-light-emission portion on a single substrate. The red-light-emission portion has a structure in which an AlGaInP-based active layer is sandwiched by a first cladding layer of a first conductivity type having a striped portion and a second cladding layer of a second conductivity type. The infrared-light-emission portion has a structure in which an AlGaAs-based active layer is sandwiched by a third cladding layer of the first conductivity type having a striped portion and a fourth cladding layer of the second conductivity type. The first, second, third, and fourth cladding layers are all made of an AlGaInP-based material. When in these layers, the Al:Ga contents are represented by X1:1-X1, X2:1-X2, X3:1-X3, and X4:1-X4, respectively, X1.gtoreq.X2 and X3.gtoreq.X4 are satisfied.
