The present invention is intended, as an object thereof, to improve stability against both temperature changes and light source output changes, and includes an achromatic lens having a composite structure of glass or a plastic lens having a diffraction grating counteracting a focal length change due to a wavelength change of light, where a lens holder is adhered to an opposite side to a light source of an overhang of the achromatic lens made of glass while the lens holder is adhered to a light source side of the overhang of the plastic lens with the diffraction grating.
