ABSTRACT:
An optical unit includes a primary lens for converging a laser beam L emitted from a semiconductor laser element, a cylindrical lens for further converging the converged laser beam, and first and second plastic lenses having optical characteristics offsetting each other in at least one of first and second directions perpendicular to each other. By virtue of the primary lens and cylindrical lens, devices included in the optical deflector on the front side thereof can be made small, and also the arrangement of the lenses can be simplified. Devices of the same on the rear side thereof incorporate lenses including a planar surface, which reduces the required manufacturing cost.
