Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate the switching of an optical path, by varying the position of a light incident on the reflecting surface of a single light beam having an inclination against an optical axis. CONSTITUTION:Plural beam splitters 11-13 are provided on a position where distances from the reflecting surface of a light beam are changed, respectively, in parallel to the reflecting surface of the light, and in accordance with the position of its arbitrary reflection. Accordingly, by changing the position of the light made incident on the reflecting surface of a single light, the light is reflected to plural beam splitters 11-13 provided on the position where the distances from the reflecting surface of the light beam are different, in accordance with its position. In such a way, the incident light can be switched to an arbitrary optical path, and also, by detecting the light transmitted through the beam splitters 11-13, the switching position of the light beam can be detected.
