Abstract

A two-dimensional scanning device provided with a first deflector for deflecting a collimated beam, a second deflector for deflecting the incident beam in a direction orthogonal to the deflection direction of the first deflector, a scanning lens disposed between the first deflector and the second deflector, a scanning surface for imaging the scanning beam from said scanning lens through the second deflector, and a device for moving the scanning lens in the direction of its optic axis in synchronism with the rotation of the second deflector to thereby obtain a strain-free two dimensional scanning figure on the scanning surface.
