Abstract

The invention discloses an optical element having an anti-reflection function and a method for producing the same. The optical element includes a base having a first main surface and a second main surface; a plurality of structures composed of projections or recesses and arranged on the first main surface at a fine pitch equal to or less than the wavelength of visible light for which the amount of reflection is to be reduced; and a light-absorbing layer that absorbs the light and that is disposed on the second main surface, wherein the structures are arranged so as to form a plurality of rows of tracks on the first main surface and form a hexagonal lattice pattern, a quasi-hexagonal lattice pattern, a tetragonal lattice pattern, or a quasi-tetragonal lattice pattern, and the structures each have an elliptical cone shape or a truncated elliptical cone shape, the major axis direction of which is a direction in which the tracks extend.

Description

[0001] References to related applications [0002] The present application contains subject matter related to Japanese Priority Patent Application JP 2009-203178 filed in the Japan Patent Office on Sep. 2, 2009, the entire content of which is hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to optical elements and methods for manufacturing optical elements. More specifically, the present invention relates to an optical element in which a plurality of structures are arranged at a fine pitch equal to or smaller than the wavelength of light whose reflection amount is to be reduced. Background technique [0004] like figure 1 As shown, in a lens barrel 101 of an optical instrument such as a camera or a telescope, external light L1 incident from a lens 102 is diffusely reflected at the end faces of the lens 102 and the lens 103 . For example, since the diffusely reflected light component L2 generated at the end face propagates to the lens...
