Abstract
An optical device including a concavo-convex structure layer composed of a plurality of protrusions arranged having a subwavelength period; a high refractive index layer located on the concavo-convex structure and having a surface shape following the concavo-convex structure; and a low refractive index layer located on the high refractive index layer and having a surface shape following a concavo-convex structure on a surface of the high refractive index layer. The high refractive index layer includes a first grating high refractive index region located on a bottom of the concavo-convex structure to form a subwavelength grating, and a second grating high refractive index region located on a top of the concavo-convex structure to form a subwavelength grating. The high refractive index layer has a refractive index higher than both the refractive indices of the concavo-convex structure layer and the low refractive index layer.
