Abstract
A technique for selecting two or more wavelengths of output light by a simpler structure is provided. A laser apparatus includes a laser oscillation portion for oscillating laser light; a nonlinear crystal inputting the laser light from the laser oscillation portion as a fundamental wave, the nonlinear crystal converting the fundamental wave into a second harmonic wave and changing conversion efficiency according to a temperature thereof, the nonlinear crystal having a periodically poled structure; and a ratio control means for controlling a ratio of the fundamental wave and the second harmonic wave outputting from the nonlinear crystal by controlling the temperature of the nonlinear crystal.
