1. An optical pulse generating apparatus that supplies pump light and probe light, the optical pulse generating apparatus comprising:
- a light source; and
a modulation unit configured to modulate light emitted from the light source, thereby dividing the light into the pump light and the probe light,wherein the modulation unit is configured such that a frequency for modulating the light is variable, andwherein the modulation unit changes a difference between a moment of the pump light incident on an object and a moment of the probe light incident on the object by changing the frequency.

Abstract
An optical pulse generating apparatus that supplies pump light and probe light includes a light source and a modulation unit configured to modulate light emitted from the light source, thereby dividing the light into the pump light and the probe light. The modulation unit is configured such that a frequency for modulating the light is variable. The modulation unit changes a difference between a moment of the pump light incident on an object and a moment of the probe light incident on the object by changing the frequency.
