Abstract

The invention relates to a method for processing curved-surface substrate multi-phrase micro optical elements and a technique of manufacturing the micro optical elements based on a flexible UV pressing die; the method has an additional step which takes a polymer structure as a mask and uses a dry etching technique to form an embossed structure on a substrate to complete the graph transmission form a fine structure to the surface of a hard substrate; a stamping step in which a flexible pressing die creates elastic deformation with external prestress applied during the stamping process to bend into a shape similar to a surface being processed, with the deflection worked out by a method of FEM ( finite element method) simulation; and a step for making a motherboard, in which the shape and size of a fine structure on the surface of a pressing die motherboard is designed according to the deflection for compensation. The method can be used to realize the processing and manufacture of micro optical elements which have a curved-surface substrate of single material and are made of non-polymer hard materials.
