Abstract
Provided are a light source apparatus and an inspection apparatus that can stably output a wavelength converted light beam. A light source apparatus includes a laser light source that generates a first fundamental light beam, at least one nonlinear optical crystal that generates a wavelength converted light beam using the fundamental light beam or a harmonic laser beam of the fundamental light beam as an incident light beam, a detector that detects the wavelength converted light beam, an acousto-optic modulator that is disposed in an optical path of the incident light beam in such a way that a zero-order light beam enters the nonlinear optical crystal, and a controller that controls an output intensity of the wavelength converted light beam according to a detection signal from the detector.
