A laser beam optical system for an LCD device includes a laser light
source, a variable attenuator for controlling an intensity of a laser
light from the laser light source, a telescope lens for gathering the
laser light having the controlled intensity from the variable attenuator
in the length and width directions, a beam homogenizer including a filter
for controlling a sectional profile of the laser light from the telescope
lens vertical to the length direction, a condenser for focusing the laser
light from the beam homogenizer, and a target to which the laser light is
irradiated.
