PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sound-to-electric transducer element of a simple small-area structure which has a wide dynamic range and is usable for various purposes. SOLUTION: The sound-to-electric transducer element is equipped with a diaphragm 2 which is equipped with a diffraction grating and vibrates with sound pressure, a light source 1 which irradiates the diffraction grating with light, and an optical detector 3 which detects and converts the light diffracted by the diffraction grating into an electric signal. The optical detector 3 uses an image sensor such as a photodiode array. The optical detector 3 detects the diaphragm 2 being displaced in two dimensions by detecting not a difference in light intensity, but a two-dimensional image of a diffraction image. When the light emitted by the light source 1 is incident on the diaphragm 2, the light wave emitted by the light source 1 is reflected by the diaphragm 2 since the reflection diffraction grating is formed on the diaphragm 2 to form the diffraction image on the surface of the photodiode array 3. The optical detector 3 optically detects the diaphragm 2 with the reflection diffraction grating being displaced and further converts the displacement into the electric signal.
