Abstract

A beam-shaping lens includes a first surface including a smooth-shaped concave surface; and a second surface including a convex surface substantially similar in shape to the concave surface. The beam-shaping lens converts a first light beam that is parallel light incident on the first surface and having a light intensity distribution that continuously increases from an outer periphery toward a center, into a second light beam that has a flatter light intensity distribution than that of the first light beam.
