Abstract
A permanent magnet () is provided to the mirror (). The mirror () can oscillate with respect to a reference plane (), by using a first axis () and a second axis () not being parallel to the first axis () as oscillation axes. The first electromagnet () causes the mirror () to oscillate with respect to the first axis (). The second electromagnet () causes the mirror () to oscillate with respect to the second axis (). Then, at least either (A) or (B) indicated below is established in the actuator (). (A) The first electromagnet () is not line-symmetric with respect to the first axis () as viewed from a direction perpendicular to the reference plane (). (B) The second electromagnet () is not line-symmetric with respect to the second axis () as viewed from a direction perpendicular to the reference plane ().
