Abstract
A laser radiating apparatus controls an intensity of energy of a laser beam output from a laser generating device and radiates an object with the laser beam. The laser radiating apparatus includes an intensity homogenizer for substantially homogenizing distribution of the intensity of energy of the laser beam, an imaging lens for converging the laser beam substantially homogenized by the intensity homogenizer and radiating an object with the laser beam, a slit for removing a part of the converged laser beam and shaping it into a predetermined beam shape, a detector for detecting an intensity of energy of the part of the laser beam removed by the slit, and a control device for controlling the intensity of energy of the laser beam based on a detection signal output from the detector.
