A measurement method and an evaluating apparatus are provided which accurately evaluate the light amount of a spot beam, the diffraction efficiency, and the intensity distribution in the optical axis direction by detecting even a weak diffracted beam in an arbitrary wavelength range converged by a diffraction optical element as an imaging lens. Light emitted from a white light source passes through a wavelength band-pass filter and is diaphragmed by a pinhole slit. The resultant light is paralleled by a collimator lens and enters a diffraction optical element as an imaging lens. The light getting out from the diffraction optical element is converged to be a spot beam, is magnified by a microscope 18, and is then projected on a CCD. A distance changing member changes the distance between the CCD and the diffraction optical element, and then, the intensity distribution in the optical axis direction is measured.

A diffractive optical element according to the present invention includes: a lens body 11 with a blazed grating 13 on an aspheric surface 11a thereof; and an optical adjustment layer 15 that covers the diffraction grating 13. The lens body 11 is made of a first material 14a and the optical adjustment layer 15 is made of a second material 14b that has a higher refractive index than the first material 14a. The diffraction grating 13 has a number of ring zones that are arranged concentrically around an optical axis, where the height of each ring zone with respect to the aspheric surface 11a of the lens body 11 is represented by an increasing function of a distance r from the optical axis. The increasing function is represented by a phase polynomial that uses the distance r as a variable and that has a magnitude of 3/4π to 7/4π when r=0.
