A small size and high efficiency laser oscillation apparatus capable of
obtaining high output and high beam quality laser light is provided.
First waveguide (21) (refractive index=n1) for transmitting excitation
light, second waveguide (22) composed of core (23) (refractive index=n3)
for generating laser light and clad (24) (refractive index=n2) for
transmitting the excitation light, and third waveguide (25) (refractive
index=n4) including first waveguide 21 and second waveguide 22 are
provided. Light amplifying fiber (20), in which the refractive indices
are set so as to satisfy the relation: n1
