OPTICAL ELEMENT, OPTICAL DEFLECTOR, OPTICAL DEMULTIPLEXER, LIGHT WAVELENGTH CONVERTER, OPTICAL MODULATOR, OPTICAL TRANSMISSION DEVICE, AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING OPTICAL ELEMENT
摘要
<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical element with a good propagation characteristic of light and a method for manufacturing the optical element which has high mass-productivity. <P>SOLUTION: The optical element 100 includes a photonic crystal layer 20 which is formed of an organic material and has a two-dimensional photonic crystal structure having projection part or recesses 30 periodically arrayed on its main surface and a high-refractive-index layer 40 which is formed of a material having a higher refractive index than that of the material of the photonic crystal layer 20 on the photonic crystal layer 20. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI</p>
