Abstract
An optical device includes a base material including a surface on which multiple concaves are formed. The concaves include respective curved surfaces. The concaves are formed so that the bottoms of the concaves are at two or more different positions in a depth direction. In the optical device, 2/7≤|(n1−n2)×Δd|/λ≤10 holds, where n1 is the refractive index of the base material, n2 is the refractive index of a medium around the concaves, λ is the wavelength of a beam flux that enters the base material, and Δd is a range of the positions of the bottoms in the depth direction.
