ABSTRACT:
An optical functional element including two diffraction gratings having metal films formed on their surfaces, which are arranged to oppose each other to form a photonic band, and an optical functional film interposed between these diffraction gratings, the optical functional film consisting of a polymer containing an optical functional material, such as a nonlinear optical material and electro-optic material, dispersed in the polymer.
