Abstract

The invention relates to a multi-step micro-lens production method and an optical element step production method. According to the method, an innermost layer ring belt of a micro-lens is formed by carrying out only one mask lithography; through negative photoresist back surface exposure development, a mask layer is obtained; pattern of a substrate is formed through corrosion, back surface exposure development, and etching; and ring belt patterns are obtained from the inside out in sequence by carrying out circulation. The invention also provides the optical element step production method. Therefore, unavoidable errors in the processes of mask plate alignment, lithography and etching and the like of the production of the micro-lens produced with the conventional overlay method are fundamentally avoided, thereby reducing process steps in the manufacturing process, reducing difficulty, meeting high-precision requirement in the micro-lens production process, and effectively guaranteeing and improving optical performances of micro-lens diffraction benefit and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a multi-step micro-lens and a method for manufacturing a step of an optical element, and belongs to the field of a photoelectric device manufacturing process method and micro-optics technology. Background technique [0002] The microlens array is an array composed of a series of tiny lenses with diameters of millimeters and micrometers in a certain arrangement. Micro-lenses and micro-lens arrays produced by micro-optical technology have become a new direction of scientific research and development due to their advantages of small size, light weight, easy integration, and arraying. [0003] The diffractive microlens is designed according to the principle of Fresnel zone plate, making ring-shaped steps, each ring-shaped step is centered on the optical axis, and each ring is equivalent to an independent refraction surface. It can make the incident light converge to the same focal point. The more steps, ...
