In optical and near-infrared background light, excess brightness and fluctuation over the known backgrounds have been reported. To delineate their origin, a fluctuation analysis of the deepest optical images was performed, leading to the detection of a flat fluctuation down to 0.2 arcsec, which is much larger than that expected for galaxies. The sky brightness obtained from the detected fluctuation is a few-times brighter than the integrated light of the galaxies. These findings require some new objects. As a candidate, faint compact objects (FCOs) whose surface number density rapidly increases to the faint end were proposed. FCOs are very compact and show peculiar spectra with infrared excess. If FCOs cause the excess brightness and fluctuation, the surface number density reaches 2.6 × 10³ arcsec⁻². γ-ray observations require the redshift of FCOs to be less than 0.1 with FCOs consisting of missing baryons. A very low M/L indicates that FCOs are powered by gravitational energy associated with black holes.
