Abstract

An optical component includes a phase diffraction grating and an amplitude diffraction grating. The phase diffraction grating includes a center concave section and a plurality of ring stages. The ring stages surround the center concave section. The center concave section and the ring stages form a cavity, where a light source is disposed in the cavity and emits the light to the optical component. Each of the ring stages has a stage surface. Each of the stage surfaces includes a plurality of ring microstructures arranged in concentric circles. The widths of each ring microstructure in at least one of the ring stages are less than the quarter wavelength of the light. The amplitude diffraction grating includes a center convex section and a plurality of ring parts. The center convex section and the center concave section are aligned. The ring parts surround the central convex section.
