Abstract: An optical element module includes a casing having a bottom plate, a temperature-adjusting unit being mounted on the bottom plate in the casing and having at least a lower layer portion and an upper layer portion positioned above the lower layer portion, a support member mounted on the temperature-adjusting unit in the casing, and a semiconductor laser element being mounted on the support member and outputting a laser light to a forward side. The upper layer portion of the temperature-adjusting unit projects at a backward side of the semiconductor laser element relative to the lower layer portion.

Abstract: [Objective] To prevent change in a direction of an optical axis of a split light within a plane parallel to a surface on which the beam splitter is installed. [Means] A laser module including a laser light source that emits a laser light and a beam splitter that splits a portion of the laser light emitted from the laser light source. The beam splitter includes a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface that are parallel to each other. The first reflective surface transmits a first portion of the laser light and reflects a second portion of the laser light to the second reflective surface. The second reflective surface receives the second portion of the laser light from the first reflective surface and reflects received laser light in a direction parallel to the laser light emitted from the laser light source.
