Laser device
A laser device capable of efficiently oscillating laser light and always obtaining a stable beam form is provided. For this purpose, in the laser device including an amplifying section ( 18 ) in which a laser medium is amplified to oscillate laser light ( 11 ), and an optical element for separating part of the laser light ( 11 ) oscillated, and shaping a beam form of the laser light ( 11 ) into a desired form to output the same, wherein the optical element has at least either one of a partial reflecting portion ( 26 ) for partially reflecting the laser light ( 11 ) or a non-reflective portion ( 28 ) for transmitting the laser light ( 11 ) at high transmissivity, each of which is provided on approximately a center portion, and a total reflecting portion ( 27 ) which is provided outside a perimeter of the partial reflecting portion ( 26 ) or the non-reflective portion ( 28 ), and which reflects the laser light ( 11 ) at high reflectivity.
1. A laser device including an amplifying section in which a laser medium is amplified to oscillate laser light, and an optical element for separating part of the laser light oscillated in said amplifying section, shaping a beam form of the laser light into a desired form to output the same,
wherein said optical element has at least either one of a partial reflecting portion for partially reflecting the laser light or a non-reflective portion for transmitting the laser light at high transmissivity, each of which is provided on approximately a center portion, and a total reflecting portion which is provided outside a perimeter of said partial reflecting portion or said non-reflective portion, and which reflects the laser light at high reflectivity, wherein at least a part of an outer periphery of said partial reflecting portion or said non-reflective portion is formed in a shape of a straight line in a direction parallel with discharge.
2. A laser device including an amplifying section in which a laser medium is amplified to oscillate laser light, comprising:
a front mirror having a partial reflecting portion which is provided on approximately a center portion and partially reflects the laser light, and a total reflecting portion which is provided outside a perimeter of said partial reflecting portion and reflects the laser light at high reflectivity, wherein at least apart of an outer periphery of said partial reflecting portion is formed in a shape of a straight line in a direction parallel with discharge,
wherein said front mirror separates part of the laser light oscillated in said amplifying section, and shapes a beam form of the laser light into a desired form to output the same.
