ABSTRACT:
A laser diode array unit for use in laser beam scanning optical apparatus and the like. The laser diode array has plural light emitting sources to be drivingly controlled independently of each other. The laser diode array is so disposed as to permit laser beams emitted from the light emitting sources to be incident to a collimator lens. On an optical axis between the laser diode array and the collimator lens is disposed a beam splitter for splitting the laser beams emitted from the light emitting sources into image light and monitor light. A magnifier lens and a photoreceptor element are arranged on the optical axis so as to allow incidence of monitor light oriented to advance in a direction perpendicular to the direction of advance of image light.
