Abstract
A laser processing apparatus including a holding unit for holding a workpiece, a processing unit for applying a laser beam to the workpiece held by the holding unit, a surface displacement detecting unit for detecting a surface displacement of the workpiece, and a focal position adjusting unit for adjusting the position of a focusing lens provided in the processing unit according to the surface displacement detected. The surface displacement detecting unit includes a detecting light source capable of oscillating light having a plurality of wavelengths different from the wavelength of the laser beam and a wavelength selecting section configured to select one of the plurality of wavelengths as the wavelength of detecting light. The detecting light having the selected wavelength is focused by the focusing lens and applied to the workpiece.
