Abstract
A coherent light source apparatus comprises a first optical system, which has a first light emission region formed by a coherent light source, and which projects light from the first light emission region to form a second light emission region, a light deflection unit which deflects light flux in connection with formation of the second light emission region; a second optical system, which forms a third light emission region in response to the light flux which has been deflected by the light deflection unit, a light mixing unit for mixing a component of an incident light angle and that of a position thereof, and a light deflection unit drive circuit for receiving a periodic optical deflection synchronization signal, thereby driving the light deflection unit, wherein the light deflection unit operates to continuously change a direction in which the light flux is deflected while synchronizing with the optical deflection synchronization signal.
