In a display device that displays a video by scanning coherent light across a screen, modulation at high speeds and gradation are necessary for a coherent light source.An oscillation wavelength of a semiconductor laser outputting the fundamental wave is changed at high speeds through the plasma effect induced by applying a pulse current to the coherent light source. A change of the wavelength causes the output of a higher harmonic generated in a light wavelength conversion element to change, and gradation is produced using such a change.
