<p>A laser apparatus capable of emitting laser beams of a plurality of different wavelengths is disclosed. This apparatus includes: an exciting light source (12); a solid-state laser medium (11) which emits light of a plurality of peak wavelengths by light from the exciting light source; a first resonance optical system including a first resonant mirror (14a) and a second resonant mirror (14d) placed with the laser medium sandwiched between them to resonate light of a first peak wavelength among the plurality of peak wavelengths emitted from the laser medium, and a first wavelength converting element (13a) located between the laser medium (11) and the second mirror (14d) to oscillate second harmonic light of the first peak wavelength light as a first laser beam; a movable reflection mirror (14e, 14f: 14g: 14h) disposed changeably between a first position and a second position with respect to an optical path between the laser medium and the first wavelength converting element so that, when the reflection mirror is disposed in the first position, it constitutes the first resonance optical system; and a second resonance optical system including a third resonant mirror (14b, 14c) which resonates light of a second peak wavelength emitted from the laser medium in cooperation with the first mirror (14a) via the movable mirror disposed in the second position, the light of the second peak wavelength being different in wavelength from the first peak wavelength, and a second wavelength converting element (13b, 13c) located between the third mirror and the movable mirror disposed in the second position to oscillate second harmonic light of the second peak wavelength light as a second laser beam. <IMAGE></p> |
