Abstract of the Disclosure In a diffraction grating made of a single crystalline silicon substrate, one major plane thereof is provided with a plurality of asymmetric triangular grooves, each having a wall inclined by an angle .theta. with respect to the major surface so as to satisfy an equation Image where .theta. represents the blaze angle, P the pitch of the groove, .lambda.B the blazing wavelength, and m the order of diffraction. The walls of each groove receiving incident light is covered with a metal coat. The diffraction grating is prepared by using a {hk?} plane (where h = k) inclined by .theta. with respect to the {111} plane of the single crystalline silicon as a major surface, and then anisotropic-etching the major surface through an etching mask having stripes having sufficiently smaller width than the grating constant. Preferably, following the anisotropic etch- ing, isotropic etching is made for the major surface.
