Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an optical glass, and more particularly to an optical glass with excellent chemical stability and high Young's modulus, and optical elements made therefrom. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous integration of optics with electronic information science and new materials science, the application of optical glass, as a fundamental material for optoelectronics, in fields such as optical transmission, optical storage, and optoelectronic displays has advanced rapidly. The rapid development of optical components and instruments in terms of digitization, integration, and high precision has placed higher demands on the performance of optical glass used in these instruments and equipment. For the same radius of curvature, glass with a higher refractive index yields a larger imaging field of view, which is beneficial for reducing the number of optical components in optical instruments. With the trend towards miniaturization of optical instruments, the demand for high-refractive-index glass is becoming increasingly apparent. However, when processing optical glass into smaller or thinner optical components, if its Young's modulus is low, it is prone to deformation during use, reducing the lifespan of the optical instrument. On the other hand, optical glass is subject to corrosion from various liquids in the environment (such as acids, alkalis, and water) during processing or use. Therefore, the resistance of optical glass to these corrosions, i.e., the chemical stability of optical glass, is crucial to the accuracy and lifespan of the instrument. Summary of the Invention

[0025] <Essential and Optional Components>

[0026] P2O5 is the network generator of the glass of this invention. Compared with silicate glass, phosphate glass can melt at low temperatures, which is beneficial to improving the light transmittance of the glass. If the content of P2O5 is too high, it is difficult for the glass to obtain a high refractive index. Therefore, the content of P2O5 in this invention is 20-35%, preferably 22-32%, and more preferably 25-30%.

[0027] Nb₂O₅ is a high-refractive-index, high-dispersion component that can improve the refractive index and devitrification resistance of glass, and also reduces the relative partial dispersion (P0) of glass. g,F ) and relative partial dispersion deviation (ΔP) g,FTo achieve the aforementioned effects, this invention uses Nb2O5 with a content of 37% or more. Preferably, the lower limit of the Nb2O5 content is 41%, and more preferably, it is 43%. If the Nb2O5 content exceeds 55%, the thermal and chemical stability of the glass decreases, and the light transmittance decreases. Therefore, the upper limit of the Nb2O5 content in this invention is 55%, preferably 52%, and more preferably 50%.

[0028] In some embodiments, controlling the Nb2O5 / P2O5 ratio within the range of 1.3 to 2.7 can improve the glass's resistance to crystallization and chemical stability, optimize its Young's modulus, and more easily obtain the desired P content. g,F Value and ΔP g,F Therefore, the preferred Nb2O5 / P2O5 ratio is 1.3 to 2.7, more preferably 1.4 to 2.5, even more preferably 1.5 to 2.2, and still more preferably 1.6 to 2.0.

[0029] TiO2 possesses high refractive index and high dispersion properties, which can improve the chemical stability of glass and adjust the relative partial dispersion (P0) of the glass. g,F ) and relative partial dispersion deviation (ΔP) g,F If the TiO2 content is too high, the glass's resistance to devitrification and light transmittance will decrease. Therefore, the TiO2 content is 1-12%, preferably 2-10%, and more preferably 3-7%.

[0030] BaO can improve the devitrification resistance and hardness of glass, and reduce the temperature coefficient of refractive index and the coefficient of thermal expansion of glass. In this invention, the above effects are achieved by containing 4% or more BaO, preferably 6% or more, and more preferably 10% or more. On the other hand, by keeping the BaO content at 19% or less, the decrease in chemical stability caused by excessive BaO content can be prevented. Therefore, the BaO content is 19% or less, preferably 16.5% or less, and more preferably 15% or less.

[0031] In some embodiments, controlling the ratio of BaO content to P2O5 content (BaO / P2O5) within the range of 0.15 to 0.9 can improve the weather resistance and light transmittance of the glass and optimize its abrasion resistance. Therefore, a BaO / P2O5 ratio of 0.15 to 0.9 is preferred, 0.25 to 0.8 is more preferred, 0.3 to 0.7 is even more preferred, and 0.35 to 0.6 is still more preferred.

[0032] CaO helps adjust the optical constants of glass, improve its processing properties and weather resistance, but excessive CaO content can worsen the glass's resistance to crystallization. Therefore, the CaO content is 0–8%, preferably greater than 0 but less than or equal to 6%, and more preferably 1–4%.

[0033] In some embodiments, controlling the TiO2 / CaO ratio (TiO2 / CaO) within the range of 0.4 to 10.0 is beneficial for reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion of the glass and optimizing its Young's modulus and abrasion resistance. Therefore, a TiO2 / CaO ratio of 0.4 to 10.0 is preferred, more preferably 0.8 to 8.0, even more preferably 1.0 to 6.0, and still more preferably 1.2 to 5.0.

[0034] SrO can adjust the refractive index and dispersion of glass, but if the content is too high, the chemical stability of the glass will decrease, and the cost of the glass will also increase. Therefore, the SrO content is 0-8%, preferably greater than 0 but less than or equal to 5%, and more preferably 0.5-3%.

[0035] In some embodiments, controlling the SrO / TiO2 ratio (SrO / TiO2) within the range of 0.01 to 5.0 is beneficial for the glass to achieve the desired P content. g,F Value and ΔP g,F While increasing the value, the Young's modulus of the glass is also improved to prevent a decrease in light transmittance. Therefore, the preferred SrO / TiO2 ratio is 0.01 to 5.0, more preferably 0.01 to 2.0, even more preferably 0.05 to 1.0, and even more preferably 0.1 to 0.7.

[0036] MgO is beneficial for reducing the density and melting temperature of glass; however, excessive MgO content makes it difficult for the glass to achieve the designed refractive index, and reduces its resistance to crystallization and stability. Therefore, the MgO content is 0–5%, preferably 0–3%, and more preferably 0–1%. In some embodiments, it is even more preferable that the glass does not contain MgO.

[0037] ZnO can lower the glass transition temperature and fusing temperature, improve the chemical stability of glass, and reduce its high-temperature viscosity. However, if the ZnO content is too high, the glass's resistance to crystallization deteriorates, and it is prone to devitrification due to excessively low viscosity. Therefore, the ZnO content in this invention is 0–5%, preferably 0–3%, and more preferably 0–1%. In some embodiments, it is further preferred that the glass does not contain ZnO.

[0038] Li₂O can improve the melting properties of glass and lower its transition temperature. However, if its content is too high, the refractive index of the glass will be difficult to meet the design requirements, and the chemical stability of the glass will deteriorate. Therefore, the content of Li₂O in this invention is 0-5%, preferably 0-3%, and more preferably 0-1%. In some embodiments, it is further preferred that the glass does not contain Li₂O.

[0039] Na₂O can improve the melt flowability and formability of glass, and optimize its light transmittance. However, if its content is too high, it is detrimental to the thermal expansion coefficient and chemical stability of the glass. Therefore, the Na₂O content is 0.5–14%, preferably 2–12%, and more preferably 5–10%.

[0040] In some embodiments, controlling the Na2O / BaO ratio (Na2O / BaO) within the range of 0.05 to 2.0 is beneficial for improving the bubble content of the glass, optimizing its abrasion resistance, and preventing an increase in the coefficient of thermal expansion. Therefore, a Na2O / BaO ratio of 0.05 to 2.0 is preferred, more preferably 0.1 to 1.5, even more preferably 0.2 to 1.0, and still more preferably 0.4 to 0.9.

[0041] K2O improves the thermal stability and melt properties of glass, but excessive K2O content reduces the glass's resistance to devitrification. Therefore, the K2O content is 0-5%, preferably 0-3%, and more preferably 0-1%. In some embodiments, it is even more preferable that the glass does not contain K2O.

[0042] In some embodiments, the ratio of BaO content to the total content of Na2O, K2O, and TiO2 (Na2O+K2O+TiO2), BaO / (Na2O+K2O+TiO2), is controlled within the range of 0.4 to 5.0, making it easier for the glass to obtain the desired P content. g,F Value and ΔP g,F To prevent the glass density from increasing, the BaO / (Na₂O+K₂O+TiO₂) ratio is preferably 0.4–5.0, more preferably 0.5–3.0. Furthermore, controlling the BaO / (Na₂O+K₂O+TiO₂) ratio within the range of 0.6–2.5 can further optimize the glass's abrasion resistance and bubble content. Therefore, a BaO / (Na₂O+K₂O+TiO₂) ratio of 0.6–2.5 is further preferred, and even more preferably 0.7–1.5.

[0043] Ln2O3 (Ln2O3 is one or more of La2O3, Gd2O3, Y2O3, Yb2O3, and Lu2O3) is a component that improves the refractive index of glass and is an optional component in the optical glass of the present invention. By controlling the content of Ln2O3 to below 5%, the devitrification resistance of the glass can be prevented from decreasing. Therefore, in the present invention, the content of Ln2O3 is 0-5%, preferably 0-3%, and more preferably 0-1%. In some embodiments, it is further preferred that Ln2O3 is not present.

[0044] The presence of SiO2 in phosphate glass can make the glass mesh more compact, improving its chemical stability and mechanical strength. However, phosphate glass meshes are not very compatible with SiO2, and phase separation precipitation can easily occur when the SiO2 content is too high. Therefore, in this invention, the SiO2 content is 0-5%, preferably 0-3%, and more preferably 0-1%.

[0045] In some embodiments, controlling the ratio of the total content of SiO2, CaO, and ZnO (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) to the content of SrO (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) / SrO within the range of 0.3 to 8.0 is beneficial for reducing the coefficient of thermal expansion and density of the glass and optimizing its weather resistance. Therefore, it is preferable that (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) / SrO is 0.3 to 8.0, more preferably (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) / SrO is 0.5 to 5.0, further preferably (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) / SrO is 0.6 to 3.0, and even more preferably (SiO2+CaO+ZnO) / SrO is 0.7 to 2.0.

[0046] B2O3 improves the thermal stability and melt permeability of glass, but its high content reduces the chemical stability and devitrification resistance of the glass. Therefore, the content of B2O3 in this invention is 0-5%, preferably 0-3%, and more preferably 0-1%. In some embodiments, it is further preferred that the glass does not contain B2O3.

When the Sb₂O₃ content exceeds 1%, the glass tends to have reduced clarification performance. Simultaneously, its strong oxidizing effect promotes the corrosion of platinum or platinum alloy vessels used for molten glass and the deterioration of the forming mold. Therefore, in this invention, the Sb₂O₃ content is preferably 0-1%, more preferably 0-0.5%, further preferably 0-0.1%, and even more preferably free of Sb₂O₃. SnO₂ can also be used as a clarifying agent, but when its content exceeds 1%, the tendency for glass coloring increases, or when the glass is heated, softened, and then molded, Sn becomes the starting point for crystal nucleation, leading to a tendency for devitrification.
