Laser light source apparatus and image generating apparatus using such laser light source apparatus

An image generating apparatus comprising:

• a laser light source apparatus,
• an optical modulation unit modulating light emitted from the laser light source apparatus in response to information, and
• a projection optical unit,
• the laser light source apparatus including a pumping light source, and
• a pair of resonator mirrors, wherein
• the resonator includes at least a laser medium and a wavelength conversion element;
• the laser medium is pumped by light having a multi-transversal mode pattern and the wavelength conversion element are irradiated with a line beam of fundamental wave obtained by the oscillation by the laser medium to output line beams of converted waves;
• and
• at least one reflector bending light path is provided in the resonator such that a longitudinal direction of the line beam of fundamental wave is approximately perpendicular to an incident plane of the reflection unit.
