Then, the ingredient that should not contain in optical glass of the invention and the ingredient not preferably comprised are illustrated.
It, can be in the range of not damaging the characteristic of glass of the present application according to need in optical glass of the invention Add other ingredients.
But for each transiting metal component such as V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ag and Mo, even if individually Or in the case that compound ground contains on a small quantity, it may have make glass coloration, generate absorption at the specific wavelength of visible region Property, therefore especially preferably contained substantially no in the optical glass using the wavelength of visible light region.
In turn, the lead compounds such as PbO and As2O3Each ingredient of equal arsenic compounds and Th, Cd, Tl, Os, Be and Se are in recent years Have the tendency that controlling and use as harmful chemical substance, not only in the manufacturing process of glass, in manufacturing procedure or even Handling in environmental cure is required in processing after commercialization.Therefore, in the case where paying attention to influence environmentally, in addition to not It is evitable to be mixed into outside, preferably contain substantially no these ingredients.Pollution environment is contained substantially no in optical glass as a result, Substance.Therefore, the optical glass can also be manufactured, processed and is given up even if not seeking handling in special environmental cure It abandons.
The physical property of optical glass
Optical glass of the invention has high refractive index (nd) and there is defined dispersion.In particular, light of the invention Learn the refractive index (n of glassd) be preferably lower limit with 1.75, with 1.80 be more preferably lower limit, with 1.84 be most preferably lower limit, preferably It is the upper limit with 2.20, with 2.10 be more preferably the upper limit, with 2.02 is most preferably the upper limit.In addition, optical glass of the invention Ah Shellfish number (νd) be preferably lower limit with 10, with 13 be more preferably lower limit, with 17 be most preferably lower limit, preferably with 35 be the upper limit, more excellent Choosing with 30 is the upper limit, with 24 is most preferably the upper limit.Even if expanding the freedom degree of optical design as a result, further seeking element It is thinned, also the amount of refraction of available big light.
Although glass of the invention is deposited and is sent out at the time of molding due to composition in addition, needing to colour less when being optical glass The case where raw coloring.However, thereafter by near glass transition point at a temperature of carry out 4 hours or more being heat-treated, be somebody's turn to do Color can disappear, the available transparent glass for meeting application.In particular, for optical glass of the invention, with glass Transmissivity when indicating, the wavelength (λ of spectral transmission 70% is shown with the sample of thickness 10mm70) it is 500nm or less, more preferable For 480nm or less, most preferably 450nm or less.Thus, it can be seen that the transparency of the glass in light area is improved, therefore can be with Using the optical glass as the materials'use of the optical elements such as lens.It should be noted that in the present invention, although by glass material Glass obtained from being heat-treated after material melting, Slow cooling has above-mentioned transmissivity, but never needs to carry out It is heat-treated from the perspective of the coloring to inhibit glass, the transmissivity of the glass before being heat-treated has above-mentioned transmissivity It is preferred.
The manufacturing method of glass forming body
Optical glass of the invention for example makes in the following way.That is, with each ingredient defined containing ratio range Interior mode equably mixes above-mentioned raw materials, and the mixture of production is put into silica crucible or alumina crucible, is carried out slightly After melting, put into golden crucible, platinum crucible, platinum alloy crucibles or iridium crucible, it is molten in 1250~1500 DEG C of temperature ranges Melt, stirring homogenizing defoams etc., is then reduced to temperature appropriate, is then poured into mold, carries out Slow cooling, thus Production.
The means of optical element are made about the optical glass by making in this way, can be used after carrying out reheating compacting The method for being ground and being ground, or the method that preform is made, is molded.
In particular, when being molded, by the preform that will be formed by optical glass of the invention for example by wrapping It includes upper die and lower die, heated in the mold that the mold component of cover die is constituted, to make its softening, be pressed.This The material for the protective film that place, the quality of parent material about mold and the forming surface in mold are formed, as long as not in the pre- of softening It is just not particularly limited at the material melted in parison, well known material can be used.Wherein, the material of the base material of mold is preferably Mold materials well known to tungsten carbide (WC), silicon carbide (SiC) or stainless steel alloy etc., the preferred most surface layer of the material of protective film Comprising selected from by Pt, Au, Ir, Ni, Cr, Mo, Rh, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Re and C group At the above element of at least one of element group material.By making the base material of mold, the mother of mold by such material Material becomes difficult to deform, therefore the long lifetime of mold may be implemented.It wherein, can be in mold from the easiness of processing Base material in use the metals such as stainless steel alloy.In addition, by using selected from by Pt, Au, Ir, Ni, Cr, Mo, Rh, Ce, Pr, Element production more than at least one of element group of Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, Lu, Re and C composition The glass of the most surface layer of protective film, softening is suppressed with reacting for protective film, therefore can be further reduced impurity to protective film Attachment.In addition, the softening of preform be not limited to by the heating in mold carry out in the way of.
Compression moulding is for example carried out according to following step.The forming surface for the lower die being inserted into the through hole of cover die After center configuration preform, upper mold is inserted into the through hole of cover die.At this point, the forming surface of lower die and the forming surface of upper mold It is arranged in an opposing fashion.Then, by heating preform and mold together, the Glass Transition of preform is constituted, is tied Fruit is suppressed by being pressurizeed with upper die and lower die to preform.As a result, preform by molding upper mold, under The inside for the die cavity that mould and cover die surround is extruded extension, therefore can be by the inside of glass filled to die cavity.I.e., it is possible to by mould In the shape transfer to glass of the inner surface of chamber.
Herein, mold be deliberately formed in such a way that die cavity becomes defined shape upper die and lower die in molding state and The relative position of each forming surface of cover die and the normal institute angle degree of forming surface.In addition, to the compacting carried out using mold Until completion, by being oriented in a manner of mutually opposite and the central axis of upper mold and lower die is consistent accurately for upper mold and lower die It maintains.Optical function face and position can be made as a result, determines what datum level positional relationship mutually with high precision and angle were formed Glass forming body.
The production of optical element
Optical glass of the invention is all useful in various optical elements and optical design, wherein particularly preferably right Optical glass of the invention is pressed to make the optical elements such as lens, prism and mirror.As a result, by obtained light When learning element for making the optical instrument of visible light-transmissive as camera and projector etc., high-resolution and height may be implemented The imaging characteristic of precision, and the miniaturization of the optical system in these optical instruments may be implemented.
