    Abstract: A photo-detection apparatus includes a light-shielding film, an optically-coupled layer, a photodetector, and an optical system. In the light-shielding film, light-transmitting regions and light-shielding regions are alternately arranged in at least a first direction within a plane. The optically-coupled layer faces the light-shielding film and includes a grating that propagates light in the first direction. The photodetector includes first photo-detection cells and second photo-detection cells arranged on an imaging area. The optical system is disposed between the optically-coupled layer and the photodetector. An image of light transmitted by parts of the optically-coupled layer that face each of the light-transmitting regions and light-shielding regions is enlarged or reduced by the optical system and formed on a corresponding one of the first and second photo-detection cells.

    Abstract: A photodetection device including an image sensor that includes first pixels and second pixels; an interference element that includes incident regions; and illumination that emits light in a first wavelength band and a second wavelength band. The interference element causes first interference of light in the first wavelength band incident on two incident regions, and guides resultant light of the first interference to any of the first pixels and guides another part of the light in the first wavelength band to any of the second pixels, and causes second interference of part of the light in the second wavelength band incident on the two incident regions, and guides resultant light of the second interference to any of the first pixels and guides another part of the light in the second wavelength band incident on the two incident regions to any of the second pixels.

    Abstract: An image display device includes a display including a plurality of light emitting elements that are two-dimensionally arranged, the plurality of light emitting elements being divided into a plurality of division regions, each of which includes more than one of the plurality of light emitting elements; and a lens that is located near a surface of the display so as to correspond to the division regions and that forms a display image by focusing each of images displayed in the respective division regions as a real image or a virtual image so that the focused images overlap on a same image plane.
