OPTICAL MEMBER

An optical member includes a transparent substrate containing at least one substance selected from glass, a glass ceramic, silicon, and sapphire, and having an infrared high-transmittance region in which an optical transmittance is 78% or more in a wavelength band of 700 nm to 1800 nm; and an optical interference film disposed on a main surface of the transparent substrate corresponding to the infrared high-transmittance region, wherein a transmittance of light, of the optical member, of at least one wavelength λin the wavelength band of 700 nm to 1800 nm in a region of the optical member corresponding to the infrared high-transmittance region of the transparent substrate has a minimum value of 86.5% or more and has a difference between the minimum value and a maximum value of 9% or less in a range where an incidence angle is from 0 degrees to 60 degrees.
