An object of disclosed technology is to control lasing wavelengths so that a wavelength shift does not occurs. Another object is to permit wavelengths of a light source for wavelength division multiplexing optical-fiber communication system to be variable in response to an ITU-TS grid. A means for achieving the objects is as follows: locating an etalon in a light path of diode laser light, which is a parallel plane wave changed by a collimator lens; generating a wavelength error signal from a difference between both of divided pieces of light from transmitted light or reflected light; and locking a wavelength of a diode laser device according to the wavelength error signal.

A subject of the invention is to reduce the temperature dependence of an etalon as a wavelength locker for a semiconductor laser device and so forth. Concretely, it is to restrict the lowering of the wavelength locking performance of the etalon dependent on the temperature variation. A means to solve the subject is the use of an air gap etalon. Concretely, the means is provided with a media plate and parallel plane plates on both sides of the media plate. The two parallel plane plates and the space between them constitute the air gap etalon.

Conventionally, in the wavelength locking optical system, the wavelength as detected is deviated from a targeted range owing to the change of the peripheral temperature resulting from the temperature characteristics of the wavelength error detection device. To solve this prior issue, it is arranged such that a portion of the wavelength error detection device, through which portion light-beams passes, contacts a material of high heat conductivity.

An optical information reproducing method, for optically reproducing information recorded on a recording medium, irradiates the recording medium with a laser beam and detects the light returning from the recording medium. When the diffracted light returning from the recording medium is detected, the optical intensity distribution of the diffracted light is detected by a plurality of detectors to produce a plurality of signals, and the signals are calculated to produce a reproduced signal for detecting the information.

A short-wavelength laser having a stable output and an optical information processing system capable of high-density recording are disclosed. A solid-state laser is used as a light source, and a nonlinear optical crystal is arranged in a resonator in order to produce a short wavelength by means of a solid-state laser. The retardation of the nonlinear optical crystal is controlled by determining the length of the nonlinear optical crystal. A solid-state laser device having a stable output with the noise removed from a pumping power light source is also provided. Further, the solid-state laser device is used as a light source for the optical information processing system, and the light of irrelevant wavelengths contained in the light from the solid-state laser device are removed by a device having the ability to select wavelengths. Thus, not only a stable light source with a short wavelength but also an optical information processing system capable of high-density recording are realized.
