[0091] As described in the background technology, the lens is an important component of the laser radar, and the lens is used to shape the light beam. For laser radar, the transmittance and reflectance of the lens are important parameters of the lens. The reflectance of the lens usually refers to the ratio between the amount of incident light reflected on the surface of the lens and the total amount of incident light. The greater the reflectivity of the lens, the greater the amount of incident light reflected on the surface of the lens, the lower the transmittance, the more stray light is generated, the lower the performance of the lens, and the fewer scenes the lens can be applied.
[0092] The current conventional optimization direction is to set a film layer on the lens surface to reduce the reflectivity of the lens in order to increase the transmittance of the lens. The principle of the film layer reducing the reflectivity of the lens is that when light passes through the interface of materials with different refractive indices, part of the light will be reflected. The film layer on the surface of the lens forms a film layer-lens interface and a film layer-air interface with different refractive indices, so that the light reflected by the lens can be reflected between the film layer-lens interface and the film layer-air interface. At this time, by accurately adjusting the thickness and refractive index of the film layer, the reflected light can interfere inside the film layer, so that the reflected light partially or completely cancels each other, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the reflectivity and improving the transmittance of the lens.
[0093] The inventors found in their research and experiments that the greater the temperature difference in the environment in which the lens is used (for example, when the lens is used for the transmitting lens or receiving lens of a laser radar, the laser radar will experience high and low temperatures during the test process or use), the greater the probability of film cracks or bulging. The reason is that in order to obtain a refractive index different from that of the lens, the film layer and the lens use different substrates, resulting in different thermal expansion coefficients for the film layer and the lens. The greater the temperature difference in the environment, the greater the difference in changes caused by the thermal expansion of the film layer and the lens, and the greater the stress imposed on the film layer by the lens. When the stress on the film layer exceeds the tensile limit of the film layer, the film layer will crack or bulge.
[0094] As a specific example, refer to Figure 1A to Figure 1F ,in, Figure 1A A schematic diagram of the structure of a lens at room temperature is shown; Figure 1B Shows Figure 1A A top view of Figure 1C Shows Figure 1A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under high temperature; Figure 1D Shows Figure 1C A top view of Figure 1E Shows Figure 1A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under low temperature conditions; Figure 1F Shows Figure 1E Top view of the .
[0095] Combination Figure 1A to Figure 1FAs shown, as an example of the structure of a lens, the lens 1 includes: a lens body 11 and a film layer G, wherein the film layer G is arranged on the end face of the lens body 11 , and the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer G is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11 .
[0096] Combination Figure 1A to Figure 1F As shown, when the lens 1 is in a room temperature environment, the size of the end face of the lens body 11 is, for example, 30 mm, and the size is, for example, the lens diameter, and the size of the film layer G is adapted to the size of the end face of the lens body 11; when the lens 1 is in a high temperature environment, since the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer G is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11, the size of the film layer G is smaller than the size of the end face of the lens body 11 at this time, and the lens body 11 drives the film layer G to expand, and the stress borne by the film layer G exceeds the tensile limit of the film layer G, resulting in a film crack problem; when the lens 1 is in a low temperature environment, since the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer G is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11, the size of the film layer G is larger than the size of the end face of the lens body 11 at this time, and the lens body 11 drives the film layer G to contract, and the stress borne by the film layer G exceeds the tensile limit of the film layer G, resulting in a bulging problem.
[0097] Therefore, how to provide an improved technical solution to reduce the probability of film cracking or bulging in the film layer has become an urgent problem to be solved.
[0098] The inventors found in research and experiments that the magnitude of the stress borne by the film layer is related to the size of the film layer. Specifically, the larger the size of the film layer, the greater the stress borne by the film layer, and the smaller the size of the film layer, the smaller the stress borne by the film layer.
[0099] As a specific example, refer to Figure 1A to Figure 1F , Figure 2A to Figure 2F ,in, Figure 2A shows a schematic diagram of the structure of another lens at room temperature; Figure 2B Shows Figure 2A A top view of Figure 2C Shows Figure 2A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under high temperature; Figure 2D Shows Figure 2C A top view of Figure 2E Shows Figure 2A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under low temperature conditions; Figure 2F Shows Figure 2E Top view of the .
[0100] Combination Figure 1A to Figure 1F as well as Figure 2A to Figure 2F As shown, Figure 2A to Figure 2F The structure of the lens shown is an example of another lens structure. Figure 1A to Figure 1FThe structure of the lens shown is similar, except that Figure 2A to Figure 2F The end face of the lens body of the lens shown is smaller than Figure 1A to Figure 1F The dimensions of the end faces of the lens bodies of the lenses shown.
[0101] Combination Figure 2A to Figure 2F As shown, when the lens 1 is in a room temperature environment, the size of the end face of the lens body 11 is, for example, 3 mm, and the size is, for example, the lens diameter, and the size of the film layer G is adapted to the size of the end face of the lens body 11; when the lens 1 is in a high temperature environment, the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer G is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11, at this time, the expanded size of the film layer G is smaller than the expanded size of the end face of the lens body, and the lens body 11 drives the film layer G to expand, but no film cracking problem occurs; when the lens 1 is in a low temperature environment, the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer G is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11, at this time, the contracted size of the film layer G is smaller than the contracted size of the end face of the lens body 11, and the lens body 11 drives the film layer G to contract, but no bulging problem occurs.
[0102] Based on the above findings, in order to solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a lens, firstly, fixing the lens body by a coating fixture, then coating the end face of the lens body, and forming a plurality of film layer units on the end face of the lens body, and there are gaps between adjacent film layer units.
[0103] By adopting the above technical solution, the lens body is fixed by a coating fixture, and a plurality of film layer units and gaps between adjacent film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body. The magnitude of the stress borne by the film layer unit is related to the size of the film layer unit. By adjusting the gaps between adjacent film layer units, the size of each film layer unit on the end surface of the lens body can be adjusted, so that the stress borne by the film layer unit can be adjusted to below the tensile limit of the film layer unit, thereby reducing the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit and ensuring the reliability of coating.
[0104] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the embodiments of the present invention, the concepts, schemes, principles and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific application examples.
[0105] First, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a lens, referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flow chart of a method for manufacturing a lens is shown. In an embodiment of the present invention, the lens can be manufactured by the following steps:
[0106] Step A, fixing the lens body by a coating fixture.
[0107] Specifically, the lens body is fixed by the coating fixture so that the relative positions of the coating fixture and the lens body remain unchanged.
[0108] In a specific implementation, the type of the lens body can be determined according to specific circumstances. For example, the type of the lens body can be one or more of a biconvex lens, a plano-convex lens, or a concave-convex lens.
[0109] In a specific implementation, the material of the lens body can be determined according to specific circumstances. For example, the material of the lens body can be one or more of plastic, glass or other materials.
[0110] Step B: coating the end surface of the lens body so that a plurality of film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body, and gaps are provided between adjacent film layer units.
[0111] Specifically, the end surface of the lens body is coated, and a plurality of film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body by a coating fixture, and gaps are provided between adjacent film layer units.
[0112] As an optional implementation, the coating fixture may include a coating part, the shape of which is matched with the end surface of the lens body; the lens body is fixed by the coating fixture, and the end surface of the lens body matched with the shape of the coating part is facing the coating part of the coating fixture.
[0113] As a specific example, the lens body is a double convex lens, the coating part has a concave surface, and the convex surface shape of one end of the lens body is matched with the shape of the concave surface of the coating part, that is, the curved shapes are basically consistent. When the lens body is fixed by a coating fixture, the end face of the lens body whose surface shape is matched with the shape of the coating part is located in the coating part and is arranged opposite to the concave surface of the coating part.
[0114] It should be noted that the shape of the end face of the lens body is adapted to the shape of the coating portion, which may include: the size of the end face of the lens body is adapted to the size of the coating portion.
[0115] As an optional implementation, the coating portion may have a plurality of second hole structures, and the plurality of second hole structures are adapted to the plurality of film layer units.
[0116] Specifically, the end surface of the lens body is coated, and a plurality of film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body through a plurality of second hole structures, and there are gaps between adjacent film layer units.
[0117] By adopting the above technical solution, the lens body is fixed by a coating fixture, and a plurality of film layer units that are compatible with the plurality of second hole structures of the coating part of the coating fixture, as well as gaps between adjacent film layer units, are formed on the end surface of the lens body. The magnitude of the stress borne by the film layer unit is related to the size of the film layer unit. By adjusting the gaps between adjacent film layer units, the size of each film layer unit on the end surface of the lens body can be adjusted, so that the stress borne by the film layer unit can be adjusted to below the tensile limit of the film layer unit, thereby reducing the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit and ensuring the reliability of coating.
[0118] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the method, the manufacturing method of the lens is described in detail below through specific examples and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0119] As an optional implementation, step A may include the following steps:
[0120] Step A1, fixing the coating fixture by the stage.
[0121] Step A2, fixing the lens body by a coating fixture.
[0122] Specifically, the carrier is a workbench for performing coating operations. By fixing the coating fixture through the carrier, and fixing the lens body through the coating fixture, the relative position of the carrier and the lens body can be kept unchanged, thereby facilitating the subsequent coating of the end face of the lens body.
[0123] As an optional implementation, step B may include the following steps:
[0124] Step B1, coating the end surface of the lens body so that a plurality of connection layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body, with gaps between adjacent connection layer units, wherein the plurality of connection layer units are adapted to the plurality of second hole structures of the coating portion.
[0125] Step B2, coating the multiple connecting layer units, so that a plurality of film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body, wherein the multiple film layer units are matched with the multiple connecting layer units.
[0126] Specifically, the connecting layer unit serves as a connecting structure between the film layer unit and the lens body, and is used to reduce the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit.
[0127] For example, the connecting layer unit can reduce the probability of film cracks or bulging of the film layer unit by increasing the bonding force between the lens body and the film layer unit. For another example, the connecting layer unit can serve as a buffer layer to reduce the probability of film cracks or bulging of the film layer unit.
[0128] As an optional implementation manner, the thermal expansion coefficient of the connecting layer unit is between the thermal expansion coefficients of the lens body and the film layer unit.
[0129] By adopting the above technical solution, the difference in change caused by thermal expansion between the film layer unit and the connecting layer unit is smaller than the difference in change caused by thermal expansion between the film layer unit and the lens body. By adopting the connecting layer unit as a buffer layer between the lens body and the film layer unit, the stress exerted by the lens body on the film layer unit can be reduced, thereby reducing the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit.
[0130] In a specific implementation, the end surface of the lens body may include: a first end surface and a second end surface.
[0131] Wherein, the first end face and the second end face are arranged opposite to each other; coating the end face of the lens body may include at least one of the following: coating the first end face; coating the second end face.
[0132] As an optional implementation, the first end surface shape and the second end surface shape are different.
[0133] Accordingly, the coating fixture may include at least one of the following:
[0134] A first coating fixture, wherein the first coating fixture comprises a coating portion having a plurality of second hole structures, and a shape of the coating portion of the first coating fixture is adapted to a shape of a first end surface of the lens body;
[0135] A second coating fixture, wherein the second coating fixture comprises a coating portion having a plurality of second hole structures, and a shape of the coating portion of the second coating fixture is adapted to a shape of a second end surface of the lens body.
[0136] Correspondingly, fixing the lens body by a coating fixture and coating the end surface of the lens body may include at least one of the following: fixing the lens body by a first coating fixture and coating the first end surface of the lens body; fixing the lens body by a second coating fixture and coating the second end surface of the lens body.
[0137] Specifically, different coating fixtures have coating parts of different shapes, and the end faces of the lens body with different surface shapes use different coating fixtures, so that the end face shape of the lens body is matched with the shape of the coating part of the coating fixture.
[0138] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention does not specifically limit the relationship between the first end face shape and the second end face shape, and the first end face shape can be the same as the second end face shape. In this case, the first end face and the second end face can be coated respectively by the same coating fixture.
[0139] As an optional implementation, continue to refer to Figure 3 Before executing step A, you can also execute step C:
[0140] Manufacture of coating fixtures.
[0141] Specifically, a coating fixture is manufactured to fix the lens body, and the end surface of the lens body is coated.
[0142] As an optional implementation, step C may include the following steps:
[0143] Step C1, designing the size and distribution of multiple film layer units on the end surface of the lens body;
[0144] Step C2, manufacturing a coating fixture according to the end surface shape of the lens body and the sizes and distribution of a plurality of film layer units preset on the end surface of the lens body.
[0145] Specifically, by designing the size and distribution of multiple film layer units on the end surface of the lens body, the performance parameters of the lens body (for example, transmittance, crack rate or bulging rate) can be optimized; according to the end surface shape of the selected lens body and the size and distribution of multiple film layer units preset on the end surface of the lens body, a coating fixture is manufactured, and the manufactured coating fixture can be adapted to the end surface shape of the selected lens body.
[0146] As an optional implementation, for step C, reference may also be made to the method for manufacturing the coating fixture described in any of the embodiments described later, which will not be described in detail here.
[0147] As an optional implementation, continue to refer to Figure 3 , after executing step B, you can also execute step D:
[0148] Determine whether the quality of the lens is qualified. If so, execute step E; if not, execute step C.
[0149] Specifically, the lens includes a lens body and a plurality of film layer units. After the plurality of film layer units are formed on the end surface of the lens body, it is necessary to determine whether the quality of the lens is qualified, so as to provide a selection basis for the execution of subsequent steps.
[0150] As an optional implementation, step D may include the following steps:
[0151] Step D1, testing the lens to determine the current performance parameters of the lens.
[0152] Step D2, judging whether the quality of the lens is qualified based on the current performance parameters of the lens and the preset performance parameters.

Through the gaps between adjacent film layer units, the size of each film layer unit on the end face of the lens body can be adjusted, so that the stress borne by the film layer unit can be adjusted to below the tensile limit of the film layer unit, thereby reducing the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit, and ensuring the reliability of the coating.
[0184] It should be noted that there is no necessary order between some steps in the above embodiments. They can be executed simultaneously or in sequence without causing any contradiction, and the order can be swapped. For example, when actually executing the steps of the method for manufacturing a lens provided in an embodiment of the present invention, steps S07 to S12 can be executed first, and then steps S01 to S06 can be executed; for another example, steps S07 to S12 can be executed in parallel with steps S01 to S06.

The embodiment of the present invention does not impose specific restrictions on the order of steps, as long as the lens can be manufactured.
[0185] Correspondingly, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a lens, which may include: a lens body and a plurality of film layer units, wherein the plurality of film layer units are distributed on the end surface of the lens body, and there are gaps between adjacent film layer units.
[0186] By adopting the above technical solution, the magnitude of the stress borne by the film layer unit is related to the size of the film layer unit. The size of each film layer unit on the end face of the lens body can be adjusted by the gap between adjacent film layer units, so that the stress borne by the film layer unit can be adjusted to below the tensile limit of the film layer unit, thereby reducing the probability of film cracks or bulging in the film layer unit.

[0195] As an optional implementation, refer to Figure 5A to Figure 5D ,in, Figure 5A A schematic diagram of the structure of a lens at room temperature according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown; Figure 5B Shows Figure 5A A top view of Figure 5C Shows Figure 5A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under high temperature; Figure 5D Shows Figure 5A Schematic diagram of the structure of the middle lens under low temperature conditions.
[0196] The lens 1 may include: a lens body 11 and a plurality of film layer units 12, wherein the lens body 11 is a biconvex lens ( Figure 5A to Figure 5D The specific shape of the lens body is not shown in the figure), wherein the lens body 11 includes: a first end face 111 and a second end face 112, a plurality of film layer units 12 are arrayed on the first end face 111, and gaps are provided between adjacent film layer units in each film layer unit 12 arrayed on the first end face 111; a plurality of film layer units 12 are arrayed on the second end face 112, and gaps are provided between adjacent film layer units in each film layer unit 12 arrayed on the second end face 112; the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer unit 12 is smaller than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body 11.
[0197] In practical applications, when the lens is at room temperature, combined with Figure 5A and Figure 5B As shown, there is a gap between adjacent film layer units 12 on the first end surface 111, and there is a gap between adjacent film layer units 12 on the second end surface 112; when the lens is in a high temperature environment, the combination Figure 5C As shown, by reasonably setting the size of each film layer unit 12 on the first end face 111 and the second end face 112, although the first end face 111 and the second end face 112 drive the film layer unit 12 on the corresponding end face to expand, the probability of film cracking of the film layer unit 12 on the corresponding end face can be reduced; when the lens is in a low temperature environment, combined with Figure 5D As shown, by reasonably setting the size of each membrane layer unit on the first end face 111 and the second end face 112, although the first end face 111 and the second end face 112 drive the membrane layer unit 12 on the corresponding end face to shrink, the probability of bulging of the membrane layer unit 12 on the corresponding end face can be reduced.
[0198] As a specific example, when the lens is at room temperature, Figure 5BAs shown, the size of the end face of the lens body 11 is, for example, 30 mm, and the end face of the lens body 11 forms a plurality of 7mm*7mm small-sized membrane layer units 12 in an array at the center, and forms a plurality of small-sized membrane layer units 12 less than 7mm*7mm in an array at the edge, and the interval between adjacent membrane layer units 12 is 0.5 mm.
[0199] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present invention does not impose any specific limitation on the magnitude relationship between the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer unit and the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body. For example, the thermal expansion coefficient of the film layer unit may also be greater than the thermal expansion coefficient of the lens body.
[0200] Accordingly, the present invention also provides a method for manufacturing a coating fixture, referring to Figure 6 , Figure 6 A flow chart of a method for manufacturing a coating fixture in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. In the embodiment of the present invention, the coating fixture can be manufactured by the following steps:
[0201] Step M, forming a porous area on the substrate.
[0202] Specifically, the porous region is a region having a plurality of through holes.
[0203] Step N, processing at least part of the porous area into a coating portion, wherein the porous area corresponding to the coating portion has a plurality of first hole structures, and the coating portion has a plurality of second hole structures, and the second hole structures are adapted to the first hole structures.
[0204] Specifically, the first hole structure is a through hole on the porous area, the second hole structure is a through hole on the coating portion, and the second hole structure is formed by processing the matching first hole structure.

[0206] As an optional implementation, the shape of the coating portion is matched with the end surface shape of the lens body.
[0207] In a specific implementation, the plurality of second hole structures are suitable for forming a plurality of film layer units on the end surface to be coated.
[0208] As an optional implementation, the plurality of second hole structures are suitable for forming a plurality of film layer units on an end face of the lens body whose surface shape matches the shape of the coating portion.
[0209] By adopting the above technical scheme, the porous area corresponding to the coating part has a plurality of first hole structures, and the coating part has a plurality of second hole structures. By processing part of the porous area into the coating part, the plurality of first hole structures can be formed into a plurality of matching second hole structures; by setting the shape of the coating part to match the end face shape of the lens body, it is possible to facilitate the positioning of the relative position between the coating part and the end face of the lens body, thereby improving the accuracy of coating, and at the same time, it is also possible to avoid the coating fixture from scratching the end face of the lens body, preferably coating the end face of the lens body; by using the plurality of second hole structures as coating channels, the coating materials passing through the plurality of second hole structures can be made independent of each other, thereby forming a plurality of film layer units on the end face of the lens body whose surface shape matches the shape of the coating part.
[0210] It should be noted that the shape of the coating portion is adapted to the end surface shape of the lens body, which does not mean that the shape of the coating portion is completely consistent with the end surface shape of the lens body, but means that the deviation between the shape of the coating portion and the end surface shape of the lens body is less than a preset deviation threshold. For example, if the deviation between the curvature of the coating portion and the curvature of the end surface of the lens body is less than a preset curvature deviation threshold, it can be considered that the shape of the coating portion is adapted to the end surface shape of the lens body. Through this setting, the adaptability of the coating portion can be improved.

[0227] Specifically, while at least a part of the porous area is processed into the coating portion, at least an area outside the porous area corresponding to the coating portion on the substrate is processed into the fixing portion.
