Abstract

Provided is a method for enhancing chemical etching through femtosecond laser to manufacture a large-scale micro-lens array. The method includes: choosing hard materials serving as femtosecond laser action targets, and generating a light destroying area at the center of the target with the femtosecond laser acting focus as the center due to the special machining characteristics of the femtosecond laser according to the shape of a micro-lens array needing machining by controlling the target moving speed of a precise machining platform and enabling the femtosecond laser to act for 100-1000 pulse counts on the surface of the target, wherein the impulse frequency is 1KHz; performing chemical corrosion on the target processed by the femtosecond laser through hydrofluoric acid solution with the volume concentration of 1% to 10%, wherein the chemical corrosion is assisted by ultrasonic wave water bath heating, the heating temperature is 30-80 DEG C, and the heating time is 40-80 minutes; and thoroughly cleaning the corroded target in deionized water, therefore a template finished product of the large-scale micro-lens array is obtained. The method for enhancing chemical etching through femtosecond laser to manufacture the large-scale micro-lens array combines the chemical etching technology and finally achieves low-cost and high-efficiency volume production of the large-scale micro-lens array.

Description
