Abstract
A laser diode and an optical switching device are connected in parallel relative to a power supply. The optical switching device is turned on by receiving an input light, and stores the ON state, so that the laser device is turned off. As a result, an electric power consumption is decreased, the structure is simplified, and the adjustment becomes easy.
