An optical phase locked loop circuit, which controls so that the optical frequency of the light 19A generated by the slave laser 19 has the offsetting factor to the optical frequency of the coherent light 11A generated by the master laser 11, corresponding to the frequency of the signal 16A generated by the signal generator 16, is provided with a LPF 1, an optical power controller 2 and a variable optical attenuator 3. Upon detecting the phase difference caused by the difference frequency between the light 19A and the coherent light 11A, the output control light 3A is obtained by transmitting the output control light 20B through the variable optical attenuator 3. The signal 13B proportional to the optical power of the output control light 3A is extracted by the LPF 1. The optical power of the light 3A is stabilized by using the optical power controller 2 and the variable optical attenuator 3 in order to vary the optical power attenuation in the light 20B corresponding to the extracted signal 13B.
