An optical scanning frequency doubling method and apparatus adopting the
same are provided. According to the method and apparatus, light scanned
by a mirror to a predetermined region is fed back to the mirror. The fed
back light is output through an output region. Thus, the frequency of a
scanner is doubled, thus greatly overcoming difficulties in
high-frequency scanning that current scanners employing a separate
optical feedback structure have. That is, the apparatus and method
optically double the frequency given by the physical structure of the
scanner. The doubled frequency is very suitable for laser televisions,
and in particular, for high resolution and high quality laser
projection-type image display devices.
