ABSTRACT:
The interferometric modulator of the invention includes a transparent substrate (refractive index: n0)12, an optical thin film (complex index of refraction: N1=n1−i·k1)13provided on the transparent substrate12, and an absorber layer (complex index of refraction: Ns=ns−i·ks)14opposed to the optical thin film13, the distance of a gap to the optical thin film13being variable, wherein the relation n1>n0, k1≅0 and ns>n0is satisfied.
