Original Abstract Submitted
A prism includes an incident face on which incident light including visible light and infrared is incident, a reflective face from which at least a part of incident light is reflected, and an exit face from which reflected light is emitted. Visible light of incident light is totally reflected from the reflective face, and only a part of infrared of incident light is totally reflected from the reflective face.
