Description

The manufacture method of lens arra tectosome and lens arra tectosome
Technical field
The present invention relates to manufacture method and the lens arra tectosome of lens arra tectosome lens section being shaped to array-like on substrate, particularly relate to the manufacture method etc. of the lens arra tectosome of the spacer possessed as supporting mass.
Background technology
As wafer lens, there are the lens (with reference to patent documentation 1) forming the resinous layer being arranged with multiple lens at the pros and cons of the transparent substrate of glass.This wafer lens is through making by the transfer printing from master mold or the transfer printing of transparent mould that obtains more than master mold transfer printing once.In addition, the surface of the substrate of wafer lens is covered by the shape layer of one.When wafer lens laminated multi-layer is manufactured the duplexer of wafer lens, sandwiched between wafer lens is needed to support upper and lower wafer lens and adjustment is positioned at the spacer of the configuration relation between upper and lower lens section.In addition, in order to the configuration relation when wafer lens installs photo detector between the adjustment lens section of wafer lens and photo detector, there is the situation of installing spacer in advance at wafer lens.When manufacturing above-mentioned duplexer, wafer lens or spacer surperficial application of adhesive and wafer lens and spacer are bonded with each other.When for above-mentioned wafer lens, the thickness of shape layer can be changed accordingly with the deviation of the thickness of substrate, can the thin and thickness of adhesive phase when keeping stacked consistently.
In addition, as the wafer lens of other type, also there are the lens (with reference to patent documentation 2) being separately arranged with multiple independently lens section on substrate.This wafer lens is made in the following manner, that is: on substrate, supply the lenticular resins of multiple bulk accordingly with the arrangement of lens, and said lens resin is shaping in the lump and form multiple independently lens section by the transfer printing of mould.In this case, the part that the surface forming substrate between adjacent lens section is exposed.
In addition, as can the spacer of stacked wafer by engaging with wafer lens etc., there is the spacer (with reference to patent documentation 3) using curable material shaping.Be formed with depression, groove at this spacer, bubble when release and wafer lens bond, limit the flowing of bonding agent thus prevent bonding agent from entering the opening of spacer.
For the coating of bonding agent, be generally the method using screen painting, divider.When using screen painting, because wafer lens exists projection, so be appropriate to the surperficial application of adhesive of spacer.When using divider, owing to no matter all can apply with or without projection, so all can apply at wafer lens and spacer.Particularly when using divider, can consider bonding agent be applied to the method for grid frame-shaped and be applied to the method for grid point-like independently.Under any circumstance, during in order to prevent the duplexer after cutting bonding, the cleaning liquid such as water of the spray when cutting invades single-piece inner, ites is desirable to expand bonding agent when stacked thus makes to be impaled by bonding agent around lens and inside is airtight.
When application of adhesive as described above, the periphery of the lens section (hereinafter referred to as border lens portion) at the edge of most peripheral configuration is compared with the periphery of the lens section (hereinafter referred to as interior lens portion) of the inside inside being configured at than this border lens portion, and the coated conditions of structure, bonding agent is different.Therefore, the bonding agent of the periphery in border lens portion carries out the movement different from the bonding agent of the periphery in interior lens portion.Such as consider, in the duplexer of clamping bonding agent, owing to leaning on the draught head closing the open area in the outside in space or closed region and border lens portion formed around ectocentral lens section, the air closed in space moves and is extruded by the bonding agent of the surrounding being filled in border lens portion etc., produces the situation of optical surface on bonding agent or easily forms bubble.Worry owing to producing bubble and be difficult to the sufficient cohesive guaranteeing wafer lens and spacer.When particularly producing bubble on line of cut, produce following problem when cutting afterwards.To during by the tectosome bonding as wafer lens and the spacer of lens arra and obtain is cut, in order to prevent dispersing of the tectosome after cutting off, paste the dicing tape of the low bounding force that can take off at the back side of spacer, cut in the mode of incomplete cut-off dicing tape.Now, if there is bubble as described above on line of cut, then directly do not posting in the wafer lens of dicing tape, because the bounding force of the lower surface to periphery dies down, so cutting-off process at the middle and upper levels the fragment of the periphery of side easily peel off and disperse.If the optical surface on the fragment dispersed and top is collided, then become the defect of product because fragment forms wound to optical surface.
In addition, propose in patent documentation 1 grade on substrate the shape layer of moulding resin method in, the shape layer on substrate and between spacer sandwiched bonding agent carry out stacked.In this case, when cutting, stress concentrates on shape layer, is easily peeling off with shape layer in the interface of substrate.In addition, because shape layer becomes to be integrated in wafer face, so there is the easily bending thus shortcoming of the THICKNESS CONTROL difficulty of duplexer that is that obtain like this of impact that wafer lens is cured contraction.
In addition, as proposed in patent documentation 2 on substrate shaping independently lens section method in, can, in the direct coated with adhesive of the real estate of wafer lens, can expect in principle, eliminate the situation causing stripping due to cutting.In addition, can avoid the scale error mentioned by patent documentation 1, shaping thick error, optical property error etc. generation in, in the method for patent documentation 2 by adjustment adhesive phase abundant existing.But, in the method for patent documentation 2, when the thickness of adhesive phase is increased, if Resin Flow time stacked increases, the closed region impaled by bonding agent is produced when lamination process carries out, gap shrinks between the wafer lens then caused along with the carrying out by operation and spacer, the air pressure of closed region increases.Now, between closed region, there is draught head if consider, be then subject to its impact, bonding agent invades to photofacial that to become optics bad, or generation bubble, is sky when cutting off towards the hole of optical surface thus cutting water immersion section becomes the reason that optical surface is polluted.
And, although when spacer being formed as suppressing bonding agent to invade the effect of lens section for suppressing can to expect when the shape of resin flows as described in Patent Document 3, but as also mentioned in patent documentation 1, the possibility of the problem that is bent to of spacer is higher.In addition, easily expect the increase such as cost of manufacture, molding procedure of the mould for making spacer thus operation complicates further this shortcoming.

As shown in Figure 3A and 3B, the transfer mold 72 (step S21) of the first resin bed 12 grade for the formation of the first lens arra 10 shown in Figure 1B is made.Specifically, prepare master mold 71, this master mold 71 is provided with transfer surface 71b, and this transfer surface 71b has the multiple transfer section 71as corresponding with multiple first optical surface 12a of the first resin bed 12 (with reference to Fig. 3 D) formed after formation.On the other hand, the substrate 73 of the glass of the transfer mold 72 of composition of preparation first resin bed 12, effects on surface 73a implements the hydrophilicity-imparting treatment such as silane coupled process, Cement Composite Treated by Plasma.Then, on the surperficial 73a or master mold 71 of substrate 73, supply uncured resin 81, make the surperficial 73a of the transfer surface 71b of master mold 71 and substrate 73 close, and press with authorised pressure.Next, from 73b side, the back side irradiation ultraviolet radiation of substrate 73, the resin 81 be sandwiched between master mold 71 and substrate 73 is made to be solidified into transfer printing layer 74.Finally, by peelling off substrate 73 from master mold 71, the transfer mold 72 being provided with transfer printing layer 74 on substrate 73 can be obtained.This transfer mold 72 becomes the mould being provided with the transfer surface 72b with the multiple transfer section 72a reversed by multiple first optical surface 12a of formation first resin bed 12.In addition, the surface treatment applying release agent etc. is carried out as required to the transfer surface 72b of transfer mold 72.
In addition, when on substrate 73, supply should become the resin 81 of transfer printing layer 74, although to carry out dripping or applying with the state that each transfer section 72a is separated accordingly on surperficial 73a, also equally can apply on surperficial 73a.In this case, flange part is also covered by resin.
Above, be illustrated the transfer mold 72 of the first resin bed 12 of the first lens arra 10, but the transfer mold (not shown) of the second resin bed 13 shown in Figure 1B etc. is made too, only the shape of transfer surface 71b is different.
Next, as shown in Fig. 3 C and Fig. 3 D, form the first resin bed 12 (step S23) of the first lens arra 10.Specifically, the substrate 11 of composition of preparation first lens arra 10, the real estate 11a of effects on surface implements the hydrophilicity-imparting treatment such as silane coupled process, Cement Composite Treated by Plasma.Then, on the transfer surface 72b of the transfer mold 72 obtained to the operation by step S21 or substrate 11 supply uncured resin 82, make the real estate 11a of the substrate 11 of preparation and transfer mold 72 close, and to carry out with the matched moulds of authorised pressure pressing.Next, from the real estate 11b side irradiation ultraviolet radiation at the back side of substrate 11, the resin 82 be sandwiched between transfer mold 72 and substrate 11 is made to solidify and become the first resin bed 12.Finally, by carrying out the demoulding of being pulled down by substrate 11 from transfer mold 72, the lens arra 110 being provided with the first resin bed 12 in the real estate 11a side on the surface of substrate 11 can be obtained.This lens arra 110 becomes the array being arranged with the first lens feature 12e with the first optical surface 12a on the substrate 11 two-dimensionally.
Next, as shown in FIGURE 3 E, the second resin bed 13 (step S24) of the first lens arra 10 is formed.Second resin bed 13 is formed with the method identical with the first resin bed 12.Thereby, it is possible to obtain the first lens arra 10 being provided with the first resin bed 12 and the second resin bed 13 at the pros and cons of substrate 11.When shaping second resin bed 13, need the configuration of the configuration of the first resin bed 12 with the second resin bed 13 mutually to aim at, lens arra 110 is carried out to the aligning of the precision of the transfer mold of the second resin bed 13.
For the purpose of the intensity improving bonding part 50, regelate (the Port ス ト キ ュ ア) process comprising heating is implemented to the first lens arra 10 obtained as described above.
Fig. 5 A and Fig. 5 B is vertical view and the cut-open view of the first lens arra 10 made by above step S11.
In addition, the second resin bed 13 also can be made with the first resin bed 12 concurrently.In this case, by before substrate 11 is pulled down from transfer mold 72, substrate 11 is made to reverse as required, and on the real estate 11b at the back side of substrate 11 or the transfer mold (not shown) of the second resin bed 13 supply uncured resin 82, the transfer mold (not shown) of the second resin bed 13 is pressed and irradiation ultraviolet radiation to real estate 11b, thus forms the second resin bed 13.Then, by the transfer mold (not shown) that makes the transfer mold 72 of the first resin bed 12 and the second resin bed 13 simultaneously or the one-sided demoulding according to priority, thus the first lens arra 10 from the two transfer mold in the lump demoulding can be obtained.
In addition, before shaping first resin bed 12, second resin bed 13, on any real estate 11a, 11b of substrate 11, barrier film (Twisted り can be formed accordingly with the pattern of lens feature 12e, 13e).Barrier film is such as undertaken portraying pattern by coating black anti-corrosion material thus peripheral region black anti-corrosion agent being arranged at lens feature 12e, 13e is formed.Or, utilize screen painting, ink-jet coating unit, blackwash be coated on the peripheral region of lens feature 12e, 13e, also can form barrier film.
Being back to Fig. 2 A, preparing the first spacer 30 (step S12) by manufacturing the first spacer 30 forming lens arra tectosome 100.Omit concrete diagram, prepare the thin plate such as glass, pottery becoming the material of the first spacer 30, in the appropriate location of this thin plate, form opening 32 with the pattern corresponding with the first lens feature 12e.For the formation of opening 32, the various methods such as Wet-type etching, dry-etching, machining can be used.
Fig. 6 A and Fig. 6 B is vertical view and the cut-open view of the first spacer 30 made by above step S12.
Next, as shown in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 4 A, supply bonding agent 83 (step S13) on the real estate 11a of the substrate 11 of the first lens arra 10 obtained to the operation by above-mentioned steps S11.
Specifically, as shown in Fig. 4 A and Fig. 7, in the exposing surface (carrying plane 11f) not being formed with the first lens feature 12e in the real estate 11a of substrate 11, at the coating zone A1 suitable with surrounding the coating pattern of whole first lens feature 12e, by the application of adhesive 83 such as to drip continuously from discharge nozzle.Coating zone A1 becomes the region relative to the additional pattern P A1 adding the outer rim of surrounding this basic pattern PA0 with the basic pattern PA0 waiting the line of width to surround the grid frame-shaped of each first lens feature 12e.Basic pattern PA0 comprises the unit cell pattern P0 of the multiple square frame-shaped repeated regularly, and constituent parts pattern P 0 is configured to centered by the first lens feature 12e, surround this first lens feature 12e, thus forms closed region ST.That is, the lens feature 10q of center side and the lens feature 10p of outer edge side that form compound lens 10e are impaled by the closed region ST be made up of bonding agent 83 of basic pattern PA0.In addition, for be positioned at inner side each first lens feature 12e, due to wait width pattern respectively rule correctly arrange, so from each first lens feature 12e, the unit cell pattern P0 of repetition rectangular shape can be considered as.That is, basic pattern PA0 become make unit cell pattern P0 with width segments repeat and combination pattern.The pattern making the multiple pattern elements P1 combinations different from unit cell pattern P0 is become at the additional pattern P A1 of the arranged outside of basic pattern PA0.This pattern elements P1 becomes and has the shape similar with a part of unit cell pattern P0 (specifically for shape that the orthogonal both sides or L-shaped part with unit cell pattern P0 are corresponding), and using key element that the outer circumferential side width of the basic pattern PA0 of the part as unit cell pattern P0 is widened.That is, add pattern P A1 to become in the region adjoined at the peripheral direction DX of the lens feature 10p with outer edge side and rise to the pattern higher than the situation of only unit cell pattern P0 by applying density.By additional pattern P A1 is formed as the pattern comprising the pattern elements different from basic pattern PA0, the pattern that additional pattern P A1 becomes corresponding with the movement of the bonding agent 83 of the periphery of the lens body 10a of outer edge side can be made, thus the expansion that the bonding agent 83 that can adjust the periphery of the first lens arra 10 outside fairly simplely.In addition, the pattern widened by a part of width of unit cell pattern P0 is become by making additional pattern P A1, the coating operation of bonding agent 83 can be kept simply, and suitably can regulate the flowing of the bonding agent 83 of the periphery of the lens body 10a being coated on outer edge side.
Although the bonding agent 83 being coated on coating zone A1 also can be made all identical, be not limited thereto.Such as, can at basic pattern PA0 and additional pattern P A1, the bonding agent 83 that coating physical property is different.Specifically, by the bonding agent using viscosity high in additional pattern P A1, the air closing space S S (with reference to Fig. 8 A) near lens feature 10p is made more effectively to be difficult to flee from laterally.In addition, by using the strong adhesive of high bond strength in additional pattern P A1, the splashing of fragment when cutting more effectively can be prevented.In addition, when each compound lens is used by cutting singualtion, due to the position bonded by adding the bonding agent 83 of pattern P A1 is discarded after dicing, thus can with singualtion after lens required for condition (such as bond strength, reflow etc.) independently select.Therefore, the degree of freedom of Material selec-tion is high.
As shown in Figure 4 A, for dripping of bonding agent 83, preferably use the divider 91 of bonding agent.Divider 91 driven part 92 drives thus dimensionally moves, and moves above coating zone (coating pattern) A1 becoming target, drips continuously carried out temperature controlled liquid bonding agent 83 by drive division 92 from the nozzle end 91a of movement.By adjust bonding agent 83 temperature thus become low viscous liquid, the processing speed that bonding agent 83 drips can be improved, thus bonding agent 83 can be coated on to drip a little or the line that drips periphery appropriateness expand coating zone A1.The amount of dripping of bonding agent 83 or quantity delivered become the amount of roughly being filled the space between real estate 11a and the end face 31b of spacer main body 31 being sandwiched in the first lens arra 10 when the end face 31b pressure-sensitive adhesive 83 by the first spacer 30 by bonding agent 83.In addition, for the quantity delivered of bonding agent 83, also can consider the deviation of the amount of dripping make the quantity delivered of bonding agent 83 excessive a little thus around the border of end face 31b and opening 32 spilling.In addition, when applying the different bonding agent of physical property 83 at basic pattern PA0 and additional pattern P A1, due to multiple bonding agent is separately supplied with respective pattern, so multiple divider can be used.
As the concrete material of bonding agent 83 being applied to basic pattern PA0 and additional pattern P A1, comprise host, auxiliary curing agent and curing initiator, and can solvent etc. be comprised.
The bonding agent 83 of embodiment is preferably, the high degree to the flowing applying shape can be suppressed to extend at normal temperature (20 DEG C ± 5 DEG C) of viscosity, and viscosity is low to can as the degree of drop supply at high high temperature more abundant than normal temperature, and containing at the higher epoxy compound of the temperature dependency of normal temperature and adjacent temperature province viscosity thereof.
In the bonding agent 83 of embodiment, as host, such as use (1) is the epoxy compound of solid at normal temperatures, is more preferably the epoxy compound that use (2) has the molecular configuration in repetitive with aromatic rings.Below, the epoxy compound as host is described particularly.
(1) be the epoxy compound of solid at normal temperatures
As the epoxy compound being solid at normal temperatures, be not specially limited.Here, be the epoxy compound of half solid under being also contained in normal temperature in the epoxy compound of solid under normal temperature.
As the epoxy compound being solid at normal temperatures, preferred mean molecular weight is the scope of 500 ~ 10000, is more preferably the scope that mean molecular weight is 1000 ~ 6000.The epoxy compound that mean molecular weight is less than 500 is aqueous at normal temperature substantially, and when the epoxy compound using mean molecular weight more than 10000, the viscosity of bonding agent increases, and is not suitable for coating.
In addition, be certainly not particularly limited in the shape of the epoxy compound of normal temperature solid, but be preferably powder or the shot-like particle that mean grain size is 0.1mm ~ 0.5mm.If mean grain size is less than 0.1mm, although to being the good dispersion of aqueous epoxy compound in room temperature as auxiliary curing agent, there is the situation needing to pulverize, if mean grain size is more than 0.5mm, then exist cannot with other uniform composition ground situation about mixing.
As the epoxy compound being solid at normal temperatures, headed by bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, exemplify and there is Bisphenol F diglycidyl ether, the isostructure epoxy compound of novolaks glycidol ether.In addition, the independent or multiple mixing of these epoxy compounds uses.In addition, due to bonding to as if optical element etc., so the content of ionic impurity preferably headed by chlorion etc. is below 800ppm.
(2) there is the epoxy compound of the molecular configuration in repetitive with aromatic rings
Be in the epoxy compound of solid at normal temperatures, particularly there is the epoxy compound of the molecular configuration in repetitive with aromatic rings, have crystallinity extremely high and become crystalline solid room temperature 25 DEG C and sharply reduce this character in the temperature province medium viscosity higher than 25 DEG C.That is, although above-mentioned epoxy compound is crystalline solid 25 DEG C of room temperature, reduce by heating more than 25 DEG C the destroyed thus viscosity of then crystal structure.
If containing this molecular configuration namely containing there is the bonding agent of epoxy compound of aromatic rings in repetitive for the joint of the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30, then the distance between the parts of above-mentioned joint can be remained high precision, and the product of high reliability can be obtained.That is, because above-mentioned epoxy compound by having aromatic rings thus becoming crystallinity individuality room temperature 25 DEG C in repetitive, so the bonding agent containing this epoxy compound becomes at the higher bonding agent of the viscosity of 25 DEG C.Namely, because above-mentioned epoxy compound is by adding thermoviscosity step-down sharp, if so heat while carry out the coating of bonding agent, then viscosity reduces, thus can suppress the deviation of the coated weight caused by the wire drawing can significantly observed in high viscosity compound.In addition, can suppress to have carried out extending coated with rear coating shape flowing on the first lens arra 10 as the object engaged.
Preferred above-mentioned epoxy compound has two or more epoxy radicals in a molecule.By the epoxy compound containing this molecular configuration, the bond strength of bonding agent is more excellent.In addition, by making epoxy compound be below 10 aggressiveness, be easy to the viscosity of the temperature range of 50 of processing ease DEG C ~ 80 DEG C to be set as lower.In addition, as above-mentioned epoxy compound, by using the epoxy compound with the molecular configuration of below 10 aggressiveness, be difficult to precipitation problem when producing keeping.Preferred above-mentioned epoxy compound is below more than 3 aggressiveness 7 aggressiveness.
As above-mentioned epoxy compound, resorcinol type epoxy, naphthalene type epoxy resin, biphenyl type epoxy resin etc. are exemplified.As the sales of this epoxy compound, EX-201 (Chang Lai industry companies system), YSLV-80XY (Dongdu changes into Inc.) etc. are exemplified.By forming bonding part containing the bonding agent had at normal temperature to be solid by heating change the be solid epoxy compound of aqueous character in light-cured resin, and adjust the temperature of object of bonding agent, application of adhesive, improve the viscosity of the bonding agent after coating, suppress the wetting expansion of bonding agent, thus easily maintain the shape of bonding agent.Therefore, it is possible to postpone to be impaled and the generation of the closed region stoping air to be fled from by bonding agent.In addition, when supplying bonding agent by dripping, can temperature control be carried out and the viscosity reduced when dripping, even if in order in more high density and apply between the lens arra of thin space bonding agent use thin footpath pin time, the rising of the bat that also can suppress to drip.Particularly by using the epoxy compound of above-mentioned (2), freely can be regulated by the viscosity during supply of easy temperature control to bonding agent.Specifically, can become by heating when dripping and be suitable for putting the low bonding agent of the viscosity of dripping, after dripping, normal temperature can be back to, become the high bonding agent easily maintaining shape of viscosity, therefore, it is possible to reliably postpone the generation of closed region, thus prevent undesirable flowing of bonding agent, bubble.
As the auxiliary curing agent mixed with the epoxy compound of above-mentioned (1) and (2), be epoxy compound substantially, specifically, novalac epoxy, biphenyl type epoxy resin, dicyclopentadiene type epoxy resin can be used.In addition, the blending ratio of auxiliary curing agent is such as the scope of 20 quality % ~ 80 about quality %.
As the curing initiator added in the epoxy compound of above-mentioned (1) and (2), consider easily operation etc., use Photoepolymerizationinitiater initiater.As Photoepolymerizationinitiater initiater, the UV polymerization initiator that kation produces agent, negative ion produces agent etc. can be used as.For UV polymerization initiator, specifically, as the cationic Photoepolymerizationinitiater initiater of generation, sulfonium salt, salt compounded of iodine, diazo salt, ferrocene salt can be used, as the Photoepolymerizationinitiater initiater producing negative ion, lithium alkyl, carbamic acid derivative, oxime ester derivative, light amine can be used to generate agent.In addition, the adding proportion of UV polymerization initiator is such as the scope of 0.001 quality % ~ 5 about quality %.
The bonding agent 83 of the embodiment of the epoxy compound containing above-mentioned (1) and (2) is 6000cP ~ 15000cP (8Pas ~ 15Pas) in the viscosity of room temperature 25 DEG C, be preferably 7000cP ~ 15000cP, and be the liquid of 1.05 ~ 1.3 the thixotropic ratio of 25 DEG C, be preferably 1000cP ~ 8000cP (1Pas ~ 8Pas) in the upper limit of the viscosity of the temperature ranges of 50 DEG C ~ 80 DEG C.By making the viscosity of bonding agent 83 be more than 6000cP, easily prevent the wetting expansion of bonding agent soon after the coating of to drip etc.In addition, by being below 15000cP, the processing power of divider is easily guaranteed.By making the thixotropic ratio of bonding agent 83 be more than 1.05, can adhesive flow be prevented thus easily become rough situation.In addition, by making thixotropic ratio be less than 1.3, the shape stability of the bonding agent after applying can be avoided excessively to become large thus expand bonding agent with being not easy no concave-convex.In addition, from the viewpoint of the stripping of the spacer preventing from stacked for lens arra body to be arranged at when filming apparatus etc. uses and lens arra, the bond strength that the bonding agent 83 of embodiment is preferably after solidification is more than 0.4MPa.By being 6000cP ~ 15000cP in the viscosity of room temperature 25 DEG C, being 1.05 ~ 1.3 the thixotropic ratios of 25 DEG C, bonding agent 83 can being clamped in room temperature thus make it expand simply between the optics of the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30 etc.But the viscosity of bonding agent 83 also not only depends on epoxy compound, the viscosity of bonding agent 83 suitably can be adjusted by adding other compositions.
Because the bonding agent 83 of embodiment is by the epoxy compound containing above-mentioned (1) and (2), achieve low viscosity during heating, so by only adding existing thinning agent, also space can not be produced as low viscous bonding agent.In addition, due to the excellent heat resistance of above-mentioned epoxy compound, so the thermotolerance containing the bonding agent 83 of the embodiment of this epoxy compound is also excellent.
Distance between the opticses such as the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30, by containing above-mentioned epoxy compound, can be remained high precision by the bonding agent 83 of embodiment, thus improves optical accuracy.That is, the bonding agent 83 be made up of above-mentioned substance can be used near room temperature become butyraceous semi-fluid mass and under the high temperature of the comparison of 50 DEG C ~ 80 DEG C viscosity reduce become liquid bonding agent.Therefore, by utilizing divider etc. to drip this bonding agent 83, bonding agent 83 moderately can be expanded and supply with desired pattern.On the other hand, if temporarily dripped on the opticses such as the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30 by bonding agent 83, then bonding agent 83 is cooled to room temperature rapidly thus viscosity sharply rises.Thus, although describe after detailed content, when making a pair optics such as the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 close thus being expanded by the bonding agent 83 being present in their gap, bonding agent 83 excess flow can be prevented.Further, by adjusting the composition of bonding agent 83, also the different bonding agent of the physical propertys such as viscosity can be applied at basic pattern PA0 from additional pattern P A1.
After step s 13, as shown in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 4 B, the first spacer 30 that operation by step S13 is obtained, critically aim at and be configured at the top of the substrate 11 of the first lens arra 10, the real estate 11a of the first spacer 30 towards substrate 11 is pressed into predetermined distance and makes it edge down upon, thus the bonding agent 83 on substrate 11 is equally expanded, roughly fill the gap (step S14) between spacer 30 and substrate 11 by bonding agent 83.Now, first spacer 30 is supported on the support 94 in end face 31a side with suction jig 94a, and be lifting device 95 driving to be elevated, thus the interval of real estate 11a, 11b etc. of the end face 31b of the first spacer 30 and the first lens arra 10 can be finely tuned.
Fig. 8 A and 8B is the figure be described the diffusion of bonding agent 83.In the state of Fig. 8 A, first spacer 30 is quite close with substrate 11, the area or the wheel Guo that are present in the bonding agent 83 of initial coating zone (coating pattern) A1 of Fig. 7 increase a little, and in a part, the space S S that closes of the surrounding of the first lens feature 12e starts to reduce.In the state of Fig. 8 B, the first spacer 30 approaches to target location with substrate 11, and the gap of the real estate 11a of the first lens arra 10 and the end face 31b of spacer main body 31 becomes suitable state.In a state in which, area or the wheel Guo of bonding agent 83 are increased to maximum limit, at the Zone Full except the first lens feature 12e and periphery thereof, become the state of being filled the gap between spacer 30 and substrate 11 by bonding agent 83.That is, be formed in the position of each first lens feature 12e and periphery thereof and close space S S.In this case, although formed at the periphery of the first lens feature 12e and quite with the closed region ST of basic pattern PA0 close space S S, coating zone (coating pattern) A1 becomes the region of the additional pattern P A1 with the outer rim of surrounding basic pattern PA0.Therefore, this additional pattern P A1 becomes obstacle, the phenomenon that what the mode that can suppress the lens feature 10p covering outer edge side was formed be forced out with closing the peripheral direction DX of the air biased outward of space S S or closed region ST.Thus, stop bonding agent 83 to move to reach the first optical surface 12a on the whole, thus the pollution of the first optical surface 12a can be prevented.
Next, as shown in Fig. 2 A and Fig. 4 B, from the real estate 11b side irradiation ultraviolet radiation at the back side of substrate 11, make the bonding agent 83 be sandwiched between the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 be solidified into bonding part 50 (step S15).Bonding part 50 becomes the knitting layer 51 of the film-form be sandwiched between real estate 11a and spacer main body 31.Then, lens arra tectosome 100 (with reference to Fig. 4 C) is completed by removing suction jig 94a.For this lens arra tectosome 100, in order to improve the intensity of bonding part 50 grade, implement the regelate process comprising heating.In addition, omit detailed description, bonding part 50 becomes the part with the part corresponding with additional pattern P A1.
Fig. 9 A ~ Fig. 9 C is the figure that the problem produced when being only basic pattern PA0 at coating zone (coating pattern) A1 is described conceptually.In these figures, Fig. 9 B illustrates the first lens feature 12e and the lens feature 10q (with reference to Fig. 7) of the center side in lens arra tectosome 100, and bonding agent 83 does not arrive the first optical surface 12a and surrounds the first resin bed 12 roughly in the same way around.But, the non-fill area of bonding agent 83 and bubble 87 is formed although very little.On the other hand, Fig. 9 A and Fig. 9 C illustrates the first lens feature 12e and the lens feature 10p (with reference to Fig. 7) of the perimeter sides in lens arra tectosome 100.Due to the periphery of the first lens feature 12e in perimeter sides, the upside of the first spacer 30 becomes the state sealed by suction jig 94a etc., and because the formation of closing space produces the trend extruded to peripheral direction DX by the bonding agent 83 from central authorities, so a part for bonding agent 83 arrives the first optical surface 12a, around the first lens feature 12e, be formed with bubble 87.
C) as the lens arra tectosome of the duplexer of lens arra
Lens arra tectosome 200 shown in Figure 10 is folded thus the tectosome obtained by the shown compound stratums such as lens arra tectosome 100 grade such as Figure 1A.Illustrated lens arra tectosome 200 has the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30, second lens arra 20 and the second spacer 40.First lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 form the first lens arra tectosome 100, second lens arra 20 and the second spacer 40 forms the second lens arra tectosome 100 '.First lens arra tectosome 100 engages via bonding part 50 with the second lens arra tectosome 100 '.In addition, ground engagement transducer array 60 can be added further in the first lens arra tectosome 100 side.
In lens arra tectosome 200, the second lens arra 20 forming the second lens arra tectosome 100 ' has the structure identical with the first lens arra 10.That is, the second lens arra 20 possesses substrate 21, first resin bed 22 and the second resin bed 23.As the optical element being arranged as grid point-like, the second lens arra 20 has compound lens 20e.Each compound lens 20e have form optical surface lens body 20a, with the flange part 20b of periphery being present in lens body 20a.Second spacer 40 has the structure identical with the first spacer 30.That is, the second spacer 40 has spacer main body 41 and opening 42.
Manufacture the second lens arra 20 and the second spacer 40 by identical with the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30, and they are engaged identically with the situation of lens arra tectosome 100, identical lens arra tectosome 100 ' can be obtained.And, on the exposing surface of the real estate 11b at the back side of formation first lens arra 10 of the first lens arra tectosome 100, such as with the pattern identical with Fig. 7 by under drops of adhesive, and the second spacer 40 of other lens arra tectosome 100 ' is aimed at and suitably close with real estate 11b, and bonding agent is solidified, thus the lens arra tectosome 200 being laminated with a pair lens arra tectosome 100,100 ' can be obtained.Stacked a pair lens arra tectosome 100,100 ' thus the lens arra tectosome 200 obtained by the method identical with the method that a pair lens arra tectosome 100,100 ' is engaged, aim at sensor array 60 and engage thus obtain.
Sensor array 60 possess be made up of CCD, CMOS etc. imageing sensor 60a, with driving circuit (not shown).Each imageing sensor 60a engages with the first lens arra 10 with the state of each compound lens 20e aligning being formed the second lens arra 20 with each compound lens 10e relative to formation first lens arra 10.
Above, when the first lens arra 10 of the lens arra tectosome 100 by a side engages with the second spacer 40 of the lens arra tectosome 100 ' of the opposing party, other the second lens arra 20 is fixed with in advance relative to the second spacer 40.In this case, when the joint of the first lens arra 10 and the second spacer 40, the end face of a side of the second spacer 40 is closed by the second lens arra 20.Therefore, although in the starting stage of bonding process, avoid the formation of bonding agent 83 stockpile alveolate close space S S thus the necessity of the phenomenon that bonding agent 83 is extruded to periphery etc. improve, but in this case, if coating zone (coating pattern) A1 has the additional pattern P A1 of the outer rim of surrounding basic pattern PA0, then also can suppress the phenomenon extruded with closing the air biased outward of space S S will formed in the mode of the lens feature 10p covering outer edge side.That is, because bonding agent 83 is prevented from around the second lens feature 13e, thus can avoid the pollution of the second optical surface 13a, the bubble of knitting layer 51 residual.
In addition, although the lens arra tectosome 200 of Figure 10 also can not carry out cutting and the optics reconstructing the compound eye imaging device of an image as the multiple images by multiple lens gained uses, but also can turn to each stacked lens (not shown) by cutting monolithic, or every multiple compound lens cuts off thus becomes the stacked lens arra of compound eye imaging device.When cutting, dicing tape is pasted by the end face at the second spacer 40, with the grid pattern corresponding with the coating of bonding agent, lens arra tectosome 100,100 ' is cut off and singualtion together with two spacers 30,40, thus obtain the duplexer of compound lens 10e, 20e.Now, dicing tape is by hemisect, and each duplexer is also bonded by dicing tape after severance.Here, line of cut creates bubble, because the bounding force of bonding part to the lens arra 10,20 that not cut adhesive tape is fixed dies down, so worry that a part for lens arra 10,20 in cut-out peels off dispersion.But, in the present embodiment, due to the pattern by forming bonding part 50 as described above, reliably bond at the periphery of duplexer, so this problem can be suppressed.In addition, although omit detailed description, but pass through according to sensor array, cut and be laminated with the lens arra tectosome 200 of sensor array 60 further thus singualtion relative to the duplexer of a pair lens arra tectosome 100,100 ', also can obtain each optical devices (not shown).

A) lens arra tectosome (the lens arra tectosome as the duplexer of lens arra)
As shown in Figure 17 A and Figure 17 B, the lens arra tectosome 100 of present embodiment is by making the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 bond thus stacked duplexer via bonding part 50.
Lens arra tectosome 200 shown in Figure 17 C is folded thus the tectosome obtained by the shown compound stratums such as lens arra tectosome 100 grade such as Figure 17 A.Lens arra tectosome 200 has the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30, second lens arra 20, second spacer 40 and sensor array 60.
In addition, although the lens arra tectosome 200 of Figure 17 C also can not carry out cutting and the optics reconstructing the compound eye imaging device of an image as the multiple images by multiple lens gained uses, but also can turn to each stacked lens (double dot dash line with reference to Figure 17 A) by cutting monolithic, thus become the optical devices 300 comprising single lens when top view as shown in Figure 18.In addition, also can cut off thus become the stacked lens arra of compound eye imaging device by every multiple lens.The optical devices 300 or optics of compound eye imaging device and the optical devices that combine of shooting sensor array such as can be arranged at mobile terminal thus play function as the camera module etc. that can take.
As shown in Figure 19 A, in a compound lens 10e of formation first lens arra 10, the first lens feature 12e has the first optical surface 12a.The projection 15 of ring-type is formed around each first optical surface 12a.Projection 15, such as when the first resin bed 12 shaping, is formed by the resin overflowed from the transfer surface of the shaping first optical surface 12a in transfer mold.Projection 15 is not the part with optical function, but when fixing the first spacer 30 by bonding part 50, prevents the part that the bonding agent before solidifying overflows in the opening 32 of the first spacer 30.
Second lens feature 13e has the second optical surface 13a.The projection 15 of ring-type is formed around each second optical surface 13a.Projection 15, such as when the second resin bed 13 shaping, is formed by the resin overflowed from the transfer surface of the shaping second optical surface 13a in transfer mold.Projection 15 is identical with the projection formed around the first lens feature (lens section) 12e, is not the part with optical function, but prevents the part that fixing bonding agent overflows in the opening 42 of the second spacer 40.The projection 15 of the second lens feature 13e side also can be omitted when the second lens feature 13e is positioned at and exposes side and do not arrange spacer around.
The spacer main body 31 of the first spacer 30 is the parts being sandwiched in a pair smooth stratiform between end face 30t, 30u.Spacer main body 31 has the first conical surface 31a of ring-type and the second conical surface 31b of ring-type in the mode adjacent with opening 32.Wherein, the first close with the first lens arra 10 conical surface 31a configures in the mode opposed with the projection 15 formed around the first lens feature (lens section) 12e.
Bonding part 50 possesses: knitting layer 51, between its real estate 11a being sandwiched in the first lens arra 10 and the end face 30u of spacer main body 31; And protrusion 52, it stretches out a little from knitting layer 51 peripherad opening 32 side.Knitting layer 51 is layers of the bonding agent roughly with same thickness.Protrusion 52 is the bonding agents of filling in the space being sandwiched in the wedge shape between the first conical surface 31a of the first spacer 30 and the projection 15 of the first lens feature (lens section) 12e.Protrusion 52 is formed as irregular shape.The irregular shape of protrusion 52 because of the deviation of the size of the diameter of the opening 32 of the first spacer 30, the first spacer 30 relative to the position skew of the first lens arra 10 or the deviation of sendout, the wettability of the surface of substrate 11 degree and produce.
As shown in Figure 19 B, the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape formation thus integrated with the first lens feature 12e around the first lens feature 12e of the first lens arra 10.The projection 15 of dykes and dams shape has top 15a, the inclined-plane 15b in outside and the inclined-plane 15c of inner side.Projection 15 is parts of mountain, the outer ring shape of encirclement first lens feature 12e, when being engaged with the first lens arra 10 by the first spacer 30, prevent the bonding agent extruded towards periphery from spacer main body 31 from stretching out in the first optical surface 12a more than the border F of the first lens feature 12e.Result forms the groove portion 16 of ring-type or caldera shape in the inner side of projection 15.
Here, the height T1 of the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape is higher than the thickness T2 of knitting layer (adhesive phase) 51.That is, with from real estate 11a to the height T1 that the distance of the top 15a of projection 15 is suitable become with from real estate 11a to more than the thickness T2 that the distance of the end face 30u of spacer main body 31 is suitable.By the height T1 of projection 15 being increased to more than the thickness T2 of knitting layer 51, reliably can realizing projection 15 and stoping the intrusion of bonding agent and resin to prevent function.When thickness T2 is 20 μm ~ 80 μm and spacer width W1 (with reference to Figure 17 B) is 500 μm ~ 800 μm, the height being specifically of a size of 50 μm ~ about 100 μm of the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape, and be the transverse width of 100 μm ~ about 200 μm.
Be back to Figure 17 C, the second lens arra 20 is the other lenses arrays with the structure identical with the first lens arra 10.In the second lens arra 20, around the optical surface of lens body 20a, be formed with the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape.The projection 15 of dykes and dams shape is such as shaping in the lump with the first lens feature 12e thus integrated with the first lens feature 12e by transfer printing.The projection 15 being arranged at the second lens arra 20 is of similar shape with the projection 15 being arranged at the first lens arra 10 and has the part that identical resin prevents function, omits detailed description.
Second spacer 40 has opening 42 accordingly with each compound lens 20e forming the second lens arra 20.Second spacer 40 engages with the second lens arra 20 with the state of aiming at relative to each compound lens 20e of formation second lens arra 20.Because the second spacer 40 has identical structure with the first spacer 30, so omit detailed description.
Second lens arra 20 and the second spacer 40 are engaged by bonding part 50 and stacked.Now, prevented the bonding agent that extrudes towards periphery from the second spacer 40 from stretching out to the optical surface of the first lens feature 22e by the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape.
Second spacer 40 engages with the first lens arra 10 via bonding part 50.First spacer 30 engages with sensor array 60 via bonding part 50.
In the optical devices 300 shown in Figure 18, the substrate portion 11e be sandwiched between the first lens feature 12e of compound lens 10e side and the second lens feature 13e is the part cut out from shown substrates 11 such as Figure 17 C.In addition, the spacer part 331 configured around the first lens feature 12e is the parts cut out from the first spacer 30.Similarly, the substrate portion 21e be sandwiched between the first lens feature 22e of compound lens 20e side and the second lens feature 23e is the part cut out from shown substrates 21 such as Figure 17 C.In addition, the spacer part 341 configured around the first lens feature 22e is the parts cut out from the second spacer 40.At compound lens 10e, between spacer part 331 and sensor part 361, bonding part 350 exists to keep the airtight mode of internal space S 1, at compound lens 10e, between spacer part 341 and compound lens 20e, bonding part 350 exists to keep the airtight mode of internal space S 2.
In the present embodiment, as the host of bonding agent 83, also (1) that describes in the first embodiment can be used at the epoxy compound of normal temperature solid, be more preferably the epoxy compound that (2) can be used to have the molecular configuration in repetitive with aromatic rings.
The bonding agent 83 of embodiment becomes butyraceous semi-fluid mass near room temperature, and reducing at the comparison high temperature viscosities of 50 DEG C ~ 80 DEG C becomes liquid.Therefore, easily by this bonding agent 83, by divider etc., dripping as drop, such as, when separately supplying bonding agent in multiple grid point, extremely can improve processing power.On the other hand, if temporarily dripped on the opticses such as the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30 by bonding agent 83, then bonding agent 83 is cooled to rapidly room temperature degree thus viscosity sharply rises.Thus, when make a pair optics of the first lens arra 10, first spacer 30 etc. close to thus expansion exist in their gap bonding agent 83, bonding agent 83 excess flow can be prevented thus formed pollute optical surface around etc. do not wish bubble.
Here, the advantage of following method is described, the method is make bonding agent 83 drip on the optics of object as drop, and make bonding agent 83 cool on optics thus be sandwiched between optics with the state that improve viscosity to spread out, make bonding agent 83 fully throughout with regelate.First, if the viscosity of bonding agent when spreading out after dripping 83 is moderately low, then can makes the generation of the closed region impaled by bonding agent 83 becoming bubble producing cause, postpone relative to the carrying out of lamination process.That is, regardless of the lens feature number in lens arra, all via the space between dripping a little, air can be discharged to lens arra periphery efficiently between optics.In addition, in the method, can so that lens feature be arranged in premised in grid point, will drip counts suppresses for being roughly 1 point relative to a lens feature, can suppress the increase of the bat that drips of the shortcoming as divider.About the joint of the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30, when premised on the projection 15 being formed with dykes and dams shape around the first lens feature 12e, precision required by the amount of dripping is when the thickness of 83 layers, bonding agent is 40 μm, and often is about 0.3mg ± 5% (average emitted 100 times) left and right.This easily can be realized by general air distributor.In addition, when put drip, because the amount of dripping is concentrated at 1, so the gap with workpiece widely can be obtained, and drip, so positional precision also can improve in the face of the nozzle that drips due to the flat site that the area between lens feature is the widest.Result can reduce the movable axis permissible accuracy to carrying divider, thus can reduce installation cost.In addition, said method, regardless of the size of the ranks number of the lens feature in lens arra, all can be applied, thus can enjoy advantages such as suppressing bubble generation with keeping intact.
B) manufacture method of lens arra tectosome
With reference to Fig. 2 A etc., the manufacturing process of the lens arra tectosome 100 shown in Figure 17 B etc. is described.
First, the first lens arra 10 (step S11) is prepared by manufacturing the first lens arra 10.The summary of the manufacturing process of the first lens arra 10 as shown in Figure 2 B.
As shown in Figure 20 A and Figure 20 B, make the transfer mold 72 (step S21) of the first resin bed 12 grade for the formation of the first lens arra 10 in advance.In the periphery of transfer section 72a, be closely formed with the jut 72p of ring-type with it.The jut 72p of ring-type, when the first resin bed 12 described later shaping, becomes the part of the projection 15 for forming ring-type around the first lens feature 12e.
Above, although be illustrated the transfer mold 72 of the first resin bed 12 of the first lens arra 10, the transfer mold (not shown) of the second resin bed 13 is made too, and only the shape of transfer surface 71b is different.
Next, as shown in Figure 20 C and Figure 20 D, form the first resin bed 12 (step S23) of the first lens arra 10.Around the first lens feature 12e, the outer rim along the first lens feature 12e is formed with the projection 15 of ring-type.A part for resin 82 before this solidification is overflowed and is formed around transfer section 72a.That is, separately will to be supplied between substrate 11 and transfer mold 72 thus to become the quantity delivered of the lens resin material of lens section, adjusting in the mode exceeding the amount required for the optical surface forming lens section, thus be formed with projection 15.In this case, the mode that can have a lens section of optical surface with expansion forms the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape, thus the formation of the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape is easy.In addition, by the projection 15 utilizing transfer mold 72 and lens section to form dykes and dams shape, the relative position relative to lens section can suitably be set.Thereby, it is possible to make the expansion of bonding agent reliably stop by dykes and dams structure.
As shown in Figure 22 A amplification, in the resin 82 dripped, although the resin portion 82a overflowed to the surrounding of transfer section 72a is subject to the impact of gravity, also become the real estate 11a that the reflects substrate 11 mould surface 72s relative to the wetting state of resin 82, transfer mold 72 relative to the shape of the wetting state of resin 82.That is, the waterproof angle α at the angle as resin portion 82a and real estate 11a being is determined by the wetting state of the real estate 11a of substrate 11.Waterproof angle β as resin portion 82a and the 72s angle that is, mould surface is determined by the wetting state of the mould surface 72s of transfer mold 72.Therefore, by selection and the combination of the material of substrate 11, the material of the transfer printing layer 74 of transfer mold 72 and the material of resin 82, waterproof angle α, β can be adjusted.The shape of result resin portion 82a and the shape of projection 15 also can be adjusted to roughly target shape with repeatability to a certain degree.Here, the height T1 of projection 15, as illustrated in Figure 19 B, becomes more than the thickness T2 of the knitting layer 51 of greatly bonding part 50.The shape (the height T1 of projection 15, waterproof angle α, β) of projection 15 is important when the first spacer 30 being fixed on the first lens arra 10.
In addition, the projection 15 of ring-type is not limited to overflowed by the resin 82 before make solidification around the transfer section 72a of transfer mold 72 thus formed, and can be formed by various method.Such as, as shown in Figure 22 B, there is by making the transfer section 72a of transfer mold 72 be accompanied with the additional transfer section 72r of the ring-type of the transfer surface 72q (expansion transfer surface) corresponding with the shape of projection 15, projection 15 can be formed forcibly.In this case, the shape of projection 15 can be formed according to comparison object by adding transfer section 72r.That is, make the shape of projection 15 accurate, thus can more reliably and critically carry out the prevention (resin prevention) of resin.
Next, as shown in Figure 20 E, form the second resin bed 13 (step S24) of the first lens arra 10.Second resin bed 13 is formed with the method identical with the first resin bed 12.
Being back to Fig. 2 A, preparing the first spacer 30 (step S12) by manufacturing the first spacer 30.
Next, as illustrated in fig. 21, supply bonding agent 83 (step S13) on the real estate 11a of the substrate 11 of the first lens arra 10 obtained to the operation by step S11.In the present embodiment, the exposing surface (carrying plane 11f) not being formed with the first lens feature 12e in the real estate 11a of substrate 11, and at the coating zone A2 such as described in this second embodiment (with reference to Figure 11 A etc.), by the application of adhesive 83 such as to drip from discharge nozzle.Specifically, as shown in fig. 23 a, at carrying plane 11f, and the region between adjacent multiple lens feature, be that the intermediate point C1 (being equivalent to basic pattern PO) impaled at four the first lens feature 12e drips bonding agent 83 more aptly.Divider 91 driven part 92 drives and dimensionally moves, and moves to as above the intermediate point C1 of target, drips carried out temperature controlled liquid bonding agent 83 by drive division 92 from nozzle end 91a.Become liquid by the temperature adjusting bonding agent 83, the processing speed of dripping of bonding agent 83 can be improved, ground application of adhesive 83 can be expanded to the central area C2 of the periphery of intermediate point C1.The amount of dripping of bonding agent 83 becomes, and is filled by bonding agent 83 completely in the space be sandwiched between the real estate 11a of the first lens arra 10 and end face 30u of spacer main body 31 and bonding agent 83 amount of overflowing a little towards periphery from this space when having been undertaken by the first spacer 30 pressing.Thus, with the end face 30u from the first spacer 30, bonding part 50 is set with the mode that the opposed region of the first lens arra 10 is stretched out.In addition, although it is best not overflow bonding agent 83 from above-mentioned space ideally, by overflowing a little, even if the deviation that there is the amount of dripping also can avoid the formation of the region do not bonded.
Then, be on the real estate 11a of the first lens arra 10 in the stable stage in the state of bonding agent 83, as illustrated in fig. 21b, the first spacer 30 operation by step S13 obtained critically is aimed at and is configured at the top of the substrate 11 of the first lens arra 10, real estate 11a towards substrate 11 is pressed into predetermined distance, and make it gently close, thus the bonding agent 83 on substrate 11 equally is expanded thus fills gap (step S14).The moment that first spacer 30 is declined is after the bonding agent 83 dripped in step s 13 drops to room temperature (such as 25 DEG C).Thus, bonding agent 83 has the viscosity of appropriateness, can suppress to form undesirable closed region at the periphery of the first lens feature 12e.
Figure 23 B and Figure 23 C is the figure of the diffusion that bonding agent 83 is described.In the state of Figure 23 B, the first spacer 30 is quite close with substrate 11, and at the wheel Guo Zengjia of the bonding agent 83 that the periphery of central area C2 is assembled, a part arrives near the first lens feature 12e.But the first lens feature 12e is impaled by the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape, bonding agent 83 is prevented to arrive the first optical surface 12a.In the state of Figure 23 C, the first spacer 30 approaches to dbjective state with substrate 11, and the gap of the real estate 11a of the first lens arra 10 and the end face 30u of spacer main body 31 becomes suitable state.In a state in which, the wheel Guo of bonding agent 83 is increased to greatest extent, becomes the state of gap-fill at the Zone Full except the first lens feature 12e.That is, be formed in the position of each first lens feature 12e and close space.In this case, although form closed region at the periphery of the first lens feature 12e, because of the existence of the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape, bonding agent 83 is stoped to arrive the first optical surface 12a.In addition, because identical reason, avoid residual bubble in knitting layer 51.
Finally, from the real estate 11b side irradiation ultraviolet radiation at the back side of substrate 11, the bonding agent 83 be sandwiched between the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 is made to be solidified into bonding part 50 (step S15).Bonding part 50 becomes the part with the protrusion 52 stretched out from knitting layer 51 peripherad opening 32 side be sandwiched between real estate 11a and spacer main body 31.Then, by removing suction jig 94a, complete lens arra tectosome 100 (with reference to Figure 21 C).
Figure 24 A ~ Figure 24 C is the figure of the situation that the projection 15 not having dykes and dams shape is described conceptually.In above-mentioned figure, Figure 24 B represents the compound lens 10e of the middle section in lens arra tectosome 100, and bonding agent 83 does not arrive the first optical surface 12a ground and surrounds the first resin bed 12 roughly in the same way around.But, be formed with the bubble 87 that any is positioned at the non-fill area of bonding agent 83.On the other hand, Figure 24 A and Figure 24 C represents the compound lens 10e of the neighboring area in lens arra tectosome 100.Due to the periphery of the compound lens 10e in neighboring area, the upside of the first spacer 30 is closed by suction jig 94a etc., because the formation of closing space produces the trend extruded to periphery by the bonding agent 83 from central authorities, so a part for bonding agent 83 arrives the first optical surface 12a, around the first lens feature 12e, be formed with bubble 87.
Above, the lens arra tectosome 100 by a side the first lens arra 10, engage with the second spacer 40 of the lens arra tectosome 100 ' of the opposing party time, be fixed with other the second lens arra 20 in advance relative to the second spacer 40.In this case, when the joint of the first lens arra 10 and the second spacer 40, the end face of a side of the second spacer 40 is closed by the second lens arra 20.Therefore, although avoid stockpiling alveolate closed region at bonding agent 83 to be formed in early days thus raising such as the necessity of the phenomenon that bonding agent 83 is extruded to periphery etc., but in this case, because bonding agent 83 has the viscosity of appropriateness, and the projection 15 of dykes and dams shape is set around the second lens feature 13e, thus bonding agent 83 is stopped in around the second lens feature 13e, thus can avoid the pollution of the second optical surface 13a, the bubble of knitting layer 51 residual.
In the above description, although to drip bonding agent 83 to the real estate 11a of the first lens arra 10, also can make to reverse up and down and drip bonding agent 83 at the end face 30u of the first spacer 30.In this case, the end face 30u of the first spacer 30 is smooth, and bonding agent 83 can by flatly coating or supplies on end face 30u such as screen paintings.In addition, drip in operation at bonding agent, also can be applied in the coating pattern of the bonding agent 83 described in first embodiment etc.
In the lens arra tectosome 100 of the present embodiment be explained above, the first lens arra 10 has the projection 15 of the dykes and dams shape of the surrounding of the first optical surface 12a on the real estate 11a of encirclement one side.Thus, when the first lens arra 10 and the first spacer 30 stacked, even if there is deviation in other sizes of the precision of the amount of dripping of bonding agent 83, the thickness of the first spacer 30, also the projection 15 extending through dykes and dams shape of bonding agent 83 i.e. dykes and dams structure can be made to stop, thus can prevent bonding agent 83 from invading to the first optical surface 12a.Above situation is also set up when being engaged with the second spacer 40 by the first lens arra 10.
(embodiment)
Below, specific embodiment is described.As bonding agent 83, prepare with the bisphenol A type epoxy resin material of normal temperature solid be principal ingredient bonding agent and test portion 1 ~ 3.The viscosity of test portion 1 is 7200CP, and thixotropic ratio is 1.11, and the viscosity of test portion 2 is 6800CP, and thixotropy is 1.06, and the viscosity of test portion 3 is 8700CP, and thixotropy is 1.07.In addition, for test portion 1 ~ 3, viscosity, thixotropic ratio are with the sequential determination of following (1) and (2).In addition, the wetting states before the bond strength after solidification, solidification etc. are with the sequential determination of following (3) and (4).

(3) mensuration (taking out test) of bond strength
Use to bond scope the thick 60 μm of test sample books that two sliding glass bondings with the cleaned surface of organic solvent wiping are obtained of bonding agent, by digital force gauge (trade name: ZP-200N CO.IMADA, speed: 30mm/min), tensile adhesion strength is measured.
(4) the wetting state test before solidification
In the sliding glass through UV ozone clean, the bonding agent of 0.30mg ± 10% is dripped with point, with microscope, the change (drip after 1h after, 12h after) of external diameter along with the time is observed.The metewand of observations is: external diameter along with the situation of the deficient change 3% of time be "○", more than 3% situation less than 5% is " △ ", and the situation of more than 5% is "×".
Consequently, test portion 1 ~ 3 all shows the good bond strength of more than 0.4MPa, and the result of wetting state test is: test portion 1,3 is zero, and test portion 2 is △, no problem all in practical.In test portion 1 ~ 3, the operation of test portion 1,3 is especially easy, and heat (40 DEG C) during by dripping, viscosity reduces and suppresses wire drawing thus processing ease.Further, after dripping, be back to normal temperature rapidly, viscosity increases, so shape easily maintains.By using test portion 1 ~ 3, when the joint of spacer, the generation of bubble can be prevented and can suitably fill and bond.
