Abstract

Provided is a pulse laser apparatus for generating laser light. The apparatus includes a first mirror and a second mirror which are disposed at both ends of a resonator and configured to reflect the laser light, a gain medium disposed between the first and second mirrors and configured to amplify and output light incident from an outside, an etalon configured to adjust a pulse width of the laser light, and an acousto-optic modulator disposed between the first and second mirrors and configured to form a mode-locked and Q-switched signal from the laser light, in which some of the laser light is output through either the first or second mirror to outside the resonator.
