An illumination optical system with a simple structure reduces the effects of illumination variations caused by a spatial coherency of illumination light, while maintaining a high usage efficiency of illumination light that is emitted in pulses. The illumination optical system illuminates an irradiated plane with pulse-emitted illumination light and includes a spatial light modulator including a plurality of mirror elements each of which spatially modulates the illumination light in accordance with an incident position of the illumination light. A modulation control unit controls the mirror elements, whenever at least one pulse of illumination light is emitted, in a manner such that the optical elements spatially modulate the pulses of illumination light differently from one another and form substantially the same intensity distribution for the pulses of illumination light on a predetermined plane.
