Abstract
There is provided a laser processing device that includes a laser light source configured to output laser light, a spatial light modulator configured to modulate the laser light output from the laser light source according to a phase pattern and emit the modulated laser light, an objective lens configured to converge the laser light emitted from the spatial light modulator onto an object, a controller configured to control a phase pattern to be displayed on the spatial light modulator, and a determiner configured to determine whether operation of the spatial light modulator is normal, in which the controller performs switching control in which the phase pattern to be displayed on the spatial light modulator is switched, and the determiner makes the determination on the basis of a change in intensity of the laser light emitted from the spatial light modulator between before the switching control and after the switching control.
