Problems solved by technology

As a result, high diffraction efficiency of the first-order diffracted light (hereinafter, simply referred to as "diffraction efficiency") can be realized in a wide wavelength region, but since one of the two-layer optical elements is made of glass material, There are disadvantages such as difficult processing of relief patterns, insufficient mass productivity, and high cost
[0012] In addition, since the diffractive optical elements of Patent Documents 4 to 7 are made of resin, they are excellent in processability and mass productivity, and can be manufactured at low cost. However, the condition of the center thickness is not suitable, and warping and peeling tend to occur during the manufacturing process. such a bad situation

Embodiment Construction

[0088] Hereinafter, a diffractive optical element according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

[0089] Such as figure 1 As shown, the diffractive optical element 1 of this embodiment is a multilayer diffractive optical element 1 in which the first optical material layer 2 and the second optical material layer 3 are laminated.

[0090] The two optical material layers 2, 3 are respectively composed of different energy curable resins.

[0091] The first optical material layer 2 is the first cured optical material layer, with a central thickness of d 1 , the refractive index in the d-line is n 1 , the Abbe number is ν 1 . The second optical material layer 3 is a post-cured optical material layer with a central thickness of d 2 , the refractive index in the d-line is n 2 , the Abbe number is ν 2 .

[0092] In addition, a relief pattern 4 is formed on the interface between the first optical material layer 2 and the se...
