摘要:
The optical apparatus includes first and second deflection members, a mask, a pumping light source, and a controller. The first and second deflection members are formed of nonlinear optical material whose refractive index is changed upon light radiation. The mask is arranged on an optical path extending from a front side of the first deflection member to a rear side of a second deflection member. The mask has a predetermined transmission pattern. The pumping light source radiates first and second beams on predetermined regions of the first and second deflection members. This changes the refractive indices of the predetermined regions to bend the optical path. The controller variably controls the intensity of the first and second beams.

Young's interferometer consisting of a single slit and a double slit member, and an analyzer are arranged along the axis of light to be measured. Parallel slits of the double slit member are provided with respective polarizers whose paralyzing directions are at .+-.45.degree. to the longitudinal direction of the parallel slits. The polarizing direction of the analyzer is set in parallel with the parallel slits. The incident light passes through Young's interferometer and the analyzer to form an interference fringe, which is detected by an image detector unit. An image analyzer unit produces an intensity profile of the interference fringe and determines the polarization state of the incident light, for instance, by comparing the produced intensity profile with conceivable profiles stored in advance.

A semiconductor light amplifier is driven by a drive device, and selectively amplifies one of a TM mode component and a TE mode component of input light. For example, TE mode light is selectively amplified by making thickness of the active layer of the semiconductor light amplifier not more than 0.05 .mu.m, or by tilting at least one of the entrance and exit faces of the semiconductor light amplifier by 10 to 16 degrees. An another type of light amplifying polarizer, input signal light and excitation light are combined by a half mirror or an optical coupler, and combined light is input to a rare-earth-element doped, polarization maintaining optical fiber.

The electrical signal observing device measures the electrical signal by applying the electrical signal to be measured to an optical amplifier in order to modulate a short pulse light train directed through the electrical amplifier. The electrical signal to be measured acts as a gain control for the optical amplifier. The photodetector detects the output of the optical amplifier and applies a resultant electrical signal to an integrator circuit after which the signal is displayed. The signal may be displayed in a time base fashion using a sweep generated by a delay system of the short pulse light train.

Polarized light is input to an optical modulator typically consisting of an electrooptic crystal. The polarization state of the input light is changed in accordance with a voltage being applied to the optical modulator. Receiving the light output from the optical modulator, a polarization interferometer produces an interference fringe on the input surface of a photodetector such as a streak camera and a CCD line sensor. Based on an output signal of the photodetector, an analyzing device calculates a pitch and a movement distance of the interference fringe to determine the voltage being applied to the optical modulator.

A pulse laser has a laser resonator, a laser medium in the laser resonator, and a deflecting device. The laser medium emits an emission light. The deflecting device switches an optical path of the emission light to output the emission light as a laser pulse. The deflecting device includes a deflecting member and a pumping device. The deflecting member is arranged in the optical path of the emission light. The deflection member has a refractive index which changes based on a pumping light incident thereon. The pumping device radiates the pumping light on a predetermined region of the deflection member and varies the refractive index of the predetermined region to switch the optical path of the emission light.
