Abstract
A laser oscillator includes: an external resonator configured to include laser media to emit laser beams having different wavelengths; and a partially reflective mirror to transmit part of the laser beams and reflect and return a remainder toward the laser media. The external resonator includes therein: a diffraction grating to perform wavelength coupling on the laser beams having different wavelengths emitted from the laser media so as to superimpose the laser beams into one laser beam and to emit, to the partially reflective mirror, the one laser beam; and a prism that is placed between the laser media and the diffraction grating and that superimposes the laser beams into one laser beam on the diffraction grating, the prism including two surfaces forming an apex angle, one of the two surfaces being an incident surface and another of the two surfaces being an exit surface.
