A combined laser source includes: a plurality of semiconductor lasers
which contain emission elements emitting a plurality of laser beams and
being separately and hermetically sealed; a plurality of collimator
lenses which collimate the plurality of laser beams emitted from the
emission elements of the plurality of semiconductor lasers; an optical
condensing system which receives, condenses, and optically combines the
plurality of laser beams collimated by the plurality of collimator
lenses; and one or more deflection members which are arranged between the
optical condensing system and one or more of the plurality of collimator
lenses, and deflect one or more of the plurality of laser beams
collimated by the one or more of the plurality of collimator lenses so
that the one or more of the plurality of laser beams propagate parallel
to an optical axis of the optical condensing system.
