ABSTRACT:
An optical element of which diffraction efficiency hardly varies with wavelength is provided by using an optical material satisfying the conditions that nd>−6.667×10−3νd+1.70 and θg,F≦−2×10−3νd+0.59 where ndis a refractive index at d-line, νdis an Abbe number at the d-line, and θg,Fis a second order dispersion at d-line, whereby diffraction efficiency is improved in any working visible wavelength region and more precise chromatic aberration correction is obtained.
