The invention provides a composite reflecting layer structure optical array and a preparation method thereof. The optical array comprises a
crystal array and a composite reflecting layer structure, the
crystal array is formed by regularly arranging a plurality of polished
crystal strips according to an N * M
rectangular array, and the composite reflecting layer structure comprises a
barium sulfate inner reflecting layer filled in gaps of the crystal strips and an ESR outer reflecting layer wrapping the
peripheral surface of an array block. The two ends of the array support single-end or double-end light reading, and the array can be adaptively coupled with various
photoelectric conversion components such as photomultipliers and
silicon photomultipliers. The preparation method comprises the steps of crystal
processing and arranging, inner reflecting layer forming, outer reflecting layer packaging and end face
coupling. Through the synergistic effect of the composite reflecting
layers, the light output efficiency is improved by more than 15% compared with that of a traditional ESR array, the inter-channel optical
crosstalk is reduced to 3.2%, the adaptability is wide, the cost is low, and the ESR array can be widely applied to precise optical systems such as
optical imaging,
optical sensing and optical transmission.
