Fresnel lens

1. A Fresnel lens comprising an incident surface that is flat, and a prism-forming surface that has a plurality of prisms, the prism-forming surface being provided on a side of the Fresnel lens opposite to the incident surface, wherein:

each of the prisms has a converging surface that is located on a side away from an optical axis of the Fresnel lens;

when a distance away from the optical axis in a radial direction of the Fresnel lens is defined as r, and predetermined values R1, R2, and R3 in the radial direction are set so as to satisfy R1<R2<R3,

a region that satisfies 0≦r≦R2 forms a refractive region where light that passes through an interior of the Fresnel lens is refracted at the converging surface, and

a region that satisfies R2<r≦R3 forms a reflective region where the light is reflected at the converging surface; and

in a range of 0≦r<R1, a relationship θ 2 =f(r) holds, and

in a range of R1≦r<R2, a relationship f(R1)≦θ 2 <f(r) holds,

where θ 2 represents an angle formed between the incident surface and the converging surface, and f(x) represents a monotonically increasing function with x as a variable.

2. The Fresnel lens according to claim 1 , wherein a value of θ 2 when r=R2 is larger than a value of θ 2 when r=R3.

3. The Fresnel lens according to claim 1 , wherein:

each of the prisms has a diverging surface that is located on a side close to the optical axis; and

a relationship θ 1 <90° holds, where θ 1 represents an angle formed between the incident surface and the diverging surface.

4. The Fresnel lens according to claim 3 , wherein:

directions opposite to each other along a straight line extending in the radial direction of the Fresnel lens are defined as an r direction and −r direction; and

a relationship arctan {f 1 /(r+a)}θ 1 <90° holds,

where r represents a distance away from the optical axis in the r direction, f 1 represents a distance to the prism-forming surface from a light-emitting surface that emits incident light incident on the incident surface, and a represents a distance between the optical axis and an end portion of the light-emitting surface that is located farthest away from the optical axis in the −r direction.
