Abstract
A dispersive device has a beam expanding optical system which includes first and second prisms each having a pair of faces inclined relative to each other, and expands light containing a plurality of wavelength components by passing the light through each of the faces of the first and second prisms; and a dispersive element which emits the light expanded by the beam expanding optical system, at different diffraction angles by the respective wavelength components. A direction of variation of an output angle of the light emitted from the beam expanding optical system due to temperature change is configured to be a direction to suppress variation of the diffraction angles of the respective wavelength components emitted from the dispersive element due to the temperature change.
