Abstract :
Incident angle dependence of retardation of waveplates using photonic crystals was numerically simulated. The simulation revealed that which photonic band the angular frequency of the incident light belongs to determines the incident angle dependence. Based on this fact, waveplates whose retardation shows low dependence on the incident angle were designed.
