In a laser apparatus, a rotatable reflection mirror rotatable on or
parallel to a resonance optical axis of a laser medium is disposed
changeably between a first and second positions by driving of a rotating
unit. A first resonance optical system includes a first and second
resonant mirrors placed so that the laser medium and the rotatable
reflection mirror disposed in the first position are interposed
therebetween to resonate light of a first peak wavelength among the peak
wavelengths emitted from the laser medium, the first peak wavelength
light being to be reflected by the rotatable reflection mirror in the
first position between the laser medium and the second resonant mirror,
and a first wavelength converting element located between the rotatable
reflection mirror disposed in the first position and the second resonant
mirror to oscillate second harmonic light of the first peak wavelength
light as a first laser beam.
