Abstract

PURPOSE:To mass-produce micro Fresnel lenses by coating the smooth surface of a substrate with resist, exposing and developing the surface and thus forming an annular resist pattern, and etching it into the original plate of a micro Fresnel lens and using this as a stamper. CONSTITUTION:The smooth surface of the substrate, e.g. glass 11 is coated with resist 12, which is exposed with an electron beam, laser light, etc., and developed to form an image of annular resist 12. This glass 11 is etched to remove the resist 12, and thus the glass stamper A having annular projections and recesses on the surface is formed. A photopolymer 13 is dripped over its surface, and a glass plate 14 is pressed from above; and the photopolymer 13 is set by being irradiated with ultraviolet rays and the separated to manufacture a micro Fresnel lens which has projections and recesses (b) reverse to the projections and recesses (a) by reproducing the glass stamper A.

Conventional optical lenses are made by polishing the surface of a transparent object such as glass or plastic to form a convex or concave spherical surface with a required radius, and determining the physical constants such as NA, focal length, and F number as an optical lens. was.

従って、これらのレンズの物理定数を決定するのは、レ

Therefore, the physical constants of these lenses are determined only by the material of the lens and the polishing of the transparent object such as glass or plastic, and there is no other alternative method.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a glass lens manufacturing method involves fixing a glass lens material 2 on a fixing table 1, placing an abrasive mold 3 on top of it, and constantly pouring abrasive material, water, etc. The glass lens material 2 was polished by rotating the IIF polishing mold three times to manufacture a glass lens with the required curvature and curved surface.

In addition, as an example of manufacturing a plastic lens, as shown in Fig. 2, a plastic lens material 5 is fixed on a fixing table 4 of a numerically controlled cutting machine, and the plastic lens material is moved by numerically controlling the hydro. 5 was machined to produce a plastic lens with the required curvature and curved surface.

このように、これらのレンズは長年技術者の感に頼るし

As described above, since these lenses have had no choice but to rely on the intuition of engineers for many years, they have been difficult to mass produce, and solving this problem has been a problem.

In addition, the characteristics of a lens cannot be evaluated using only the physical constants mentioned above, and in particular, there is no solution to the problem of aberration, so chromatic aberration has traditionally been adjusted by using several lens configurations, but astigmatism, Regarding coma, field curvature, and curved surface aberration, the only solution is to precisely polish the curvature and curved surface, which has been a long-standing problem.

In order to solve the astigmatism, coma, field curvature, and spherical aberration of conventional lenses that utilize the light refraction phenomenon of glass, plastic, etc., the present invention aims to mass produce micro Fresnel lenses that utilize the light diffraction phenomenon. This is a method for manufacturing a micro Fresnel lens, which is intended to be provided at a low price.

以下、本発明の実施の一例を第3図乃至第6図について

A resist 12 is applied to the surface of the glass 11 with a smooth surface, and a light beam to which the resist 12 is sensitive, such as an electron beam, a laser beam, or an ultraviolet ray, is exposed onto the lens 1-12, and then developed. As shown in FIG. 4, a ring-shaped image of the resist 12 is formed.

Next, when this glass 11 is etched and the resist 12 is removed, a glass stamper 8 having ring-shaped irregularities a formed on its surface is formed as shown in FIG.

Further, a photopolymer 13 is dropped onto the annular irregularities a on the surface of the glass stamper, a glass plate or acrylic plate 14 is pressed onto the photopolymer 13, and ultraviolet rays are irradiated from the top surface of the glass plate or acrylic plate 14. Assume that the photopolymer 13 is slightly cured, the photopolymer 13 is peeled off from the glass stamper A, and the unevenness a of the glass stamper A is transferred to the photopolymer 13, and the surface thereof is made uneven in the opposite direction to the unevenness a.

その後に、ホトポリマー13の該凹凸面すから紫外線を

Thereafter, the uneven surface of the photopolymer 13 is sufficiently irradiated with ultraviolet rays to completely cure the photopolymer 13, thereby producing a micro Fresnel lens that is a copy of the glass stamper.

For example, when the lens diameter is 2 d = 0.4 mm, the focal length f = 0.25 fins, and the laser wavelength λ = 0.6328 μm, the spot diameter is 2 as /2 = 0.41 am 2 at / e2 = 0. .66 am.
