Abstract
A light guide element includes a light-guiding substrate and a diffraction part formed on a surface of the light-guiding substrate. The diffraction part includes an optical layer capable of exerting a diffractive action. The distance from the light-guiding substrate to a surface of the optical layer is equal to or less than 10% of a thickness of the light-guiding substrate. The light guide element satisfies |ΔD|≦0.15 mm, where ΔD is an amount of a change in D with the temperature change ΔT, D [mm] is a distance, at the temperature T (° C.), between the center of the diffraction part and a position predetermined as a position where the ray of light comes out of the light-guiding substrate in a direction horizontal with respect to the light-guiding substrate, and ΔT is a temperature change.
