A heterodyne laser having a first optical path for guiding excitation
light and a second optical path for guiding measurement light. The
heterodyne laser includes an optical probe body for optically coupling
and structurally combining the first optical path and the second optical
path, and includes a reflection mirror, a beam splitter, a focal lens and
a 1/4 wavelength plate. The excitation light from the first optical path
is introduced through the reflection mirror, the beam splitter and the
focal lens into a measurement object.
