Abstract

In an optical system, a first optical section having positive power, a second optical section provided with a first diffractive element and having positive power, a third optical section having positive power, and a fourth optical section provided with a second diffractive element and having positive power are disposed along a light path of image light emitted from an image light generation device. A first intermediate image of the image light is formed between the first optical section and the third optical section, a pupil is formed in the vicinity of the third optical section, a second intermediate image of the image light is formed between the third optical section and the fourth optical section, and the fourth optical section collimates the image light to form an exit pupil. The first diffractive element and the second diffractive element are in a conjugate relation or a roughly conjugate relation.
