Problems solved by technology

In particular, in order to increase the refractive index, it is necessary to disperse a large number of fine particles, so that the fluidity becomes worse
[0013] Therefore, when injection molding nanocomposite resins, resin fluidity required for injection molding cannot be obtained even at high temperatures, making it difficult to mold good products

no. 1 approach

[0086] First, a first embodiment of the optical element manufacturing method according to the present invention will be described.

[0087] figure 1 The flow chart of is showing a schematic procedure of the optical element manufacturing method according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0088] Such as figure 1 As shown, the nanocomposite powder passes through an intermediate forming device to be described later to form a bulk intermediate 63 through a heating step (step 1: S1), an extrusion step (S2) and a cutting step (S3). Then, the intermediate body 63 is heated (S4) and compressed by press molding, thereby manufacturing an optical element 67 such as a lens. The nanocomposite powder is a material in which inorganic fine particles each having an average particle diameter of 1 to 15 nm are dispersed in a thermoplastic resin, the details of which will be described later.

[0089] The above steps are described in order below. First, through figure 2 The ...

Abstract

A method for manufacturing an optical member from a powdery nano composite material, which includes a thermoplastic resin containing inorganic fine particles, is provided. The method includes: preparing an aggregated intermediate body by heating the powdery nano composite material; and forming the optical member having a finished shape by heat-press molding the intermediate body.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an optical element manufacturing method, an optical element manufacturing apparatus, and an optical element; in particular, the present invention relates to a technique for forming an optical element using a nanocomposite material. Background technique [0002] With the recent improvement in performance, miniaturization and cost reduction of optical information recording devices such as portable cameras, DVD, CD, and MO drives, optical elements (such as optical lenses or filters) used in these optical information recording devices are in great demand for excellent material and method development. [0003] In particular, plastic lenses are lighter and harder to break than inorganic materials such as glass, can be processed into various shapes, and can be produced at low cost. Therefore, the application of plastic lenses is rapidly expanding not only to glass lenses but also to the aforementioned optical lenses. With su...
