In an optical element which includes a single crystal having at least one flat light-transmitting end surface, the at least one light-transmitting end surface is inclined at at least 0.5 degrees relative to a plane perpendicular to one of an a-axis and a c-axis of the single crystal. In a process of producing such an optical element, a single crystal is cut out so that the single crystal has at least one surface which is inclined at at least 0.5 degrees relative to a plane perpendicular to one of an a-axis and a c-axis of the single crystal, and then the at least one surface is polished into at least one light-transmitting end surface. |
