Abstract

A complex diffraction device, which is excellent in designability, easy in setting the diffraction angle, adaptable to size increase, and easy to handle by adding a diffraction function resulting from an uneven pattern to the diffraction device comprising a liquid crystalline layer where the helical orientation of the smectic liquid crystal phase having a helical structure is maintained.
