Detailed Description
The following detailed description of embodiments of the invention is intended to be illustrative, and is not to be construed as limiting the invention.
In one aspect of the invention, an optical glass is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the optical glass includes: 5 to 25 wt.% of B2O325 to 45% by weight of La2O30 to 10% by weight of Y2O310 to 35% by weight of Gd2O30.5 to 15% by weight of SiO21 to 15% by weight of ZrO20 to 5% by weight of TiO20 to 7% by weight of WO30 to 15% by weight of Ta2O50 to 10 wt% of ZnO and 0 to 8.5 wt% of Nb2O5Wherein m is(TiO2+WO3+La2O3)/m(B2O3+Nb2O5+SiO2+ZrO2+Gd2O3)Not greater than 0.95.
Glass composition:
B2O3the glass is a skeleton component of the glass, and has the effects of improving the meltability of the glass, resisting devitrification and reducing the dispersion of the glass. However, when the amount of incorporation exceeds 25% by weight, the glass stability is lowered and the refractive index is lowered, and when the amount of incorporation is less than 5% by weight, the glass meltability is lowered and the optical constants required in the present invention are not obtained. Thus, B of the present invention2O3In an amount of 5 to 25 wt%%, preferably B2O3The content is 8 to 20% by weight, more preferably 10 to 16% by weight.
La2O3Is an essential component for obtaining the desired optical properties of the present invention when La2O3When the content of (b) is less than 25% by weight, it is difficult to achieve desired optical characteristics, but when the content exceeds 45% by weight, both devitrification resistance and melting property of the glass are deteriorated. Thus, the La of the present invention2O3The content of (A) is 25 to 45 wt%, preferably La2O3The content is 30 to 42 wt%, more preferably 33 to 39 wt%.
Y2O3The melting property and devitrification resistance of the glass can be improved and the upper limit temperature of devitrification of the glass can be lowered, but if the content exceeds 10% by weight, the stability and devitrification resistance of the glass are lowered. Thus, Y of the present invention2O3The content is 0-10 wt%, preferably Y2O3The content is in the range of 0 to 8% by weight, more preferably 1 to 5% by weight.
In the present invention, Gd is used2O3And La2O3Coexisting, the stability of the glass formed can be improved, but when Gd is used2O3When the content is less than 10% by weight, the above effect is not significant, and when the content exceeds 35% by weight, the devitrification resistance of the glass is lowered and the stability of the formed glass is deteriorated. Thus, Gd of the present invention2O3Is 10 to 35 wt%, preferably Gd2O3The content of (B) is 15 to 28 wt%, more preferably 17 to 25 wt%.
SiO2The glass skeleton is a component constituting the glass skeleton, and has the effects of improving resistance to devitrification, improving the weather resistance of glass, improving the thermal stability of glass, and the like. But when SiO2When the content is less than 0.5% by weight, the effect of improving the devitrification resistance is insignificant, and when the content exceeds 15% by weight, the glass is deteriorated in meltability and the refractive index required in the present invention cannot be obtained. Accordingly, in the present invention, the content of SiO2 is 0.5 to 15% by weight, and SiO is preferable2The content is 2 to 13% by weight, more preferably 4 to 10% by weight.
ZrO2The glass is formed as an intermediate oxide to improve the refractive index and stability, and therefore, it also has the effect of improving the resistance to devitrification and chemical durability. ZrO (ZrO)2When the content of (A) is less than 1% by weight, the above-mentioned intended effects cannot be obtained, and when ZrO is contained in the composition2When the content of (b) exceeds 15% by weight, devitrification tendency becomes strong and vitrification tends to become difficult. Therefore, ZrO in the present invention2The content is 1 to 15 wt%, preferably ZrO2The content is 1 to 10% by weight, more preferably 3 to 8% by weight.
TiO2Also has the function of improving the refractive index of the glass, can participate in the formation of a glass network, and leads the glass to be more stable by introducing a proper amount. However, if the content is more than 5% by weight, the glass dispersion is remarkably increased, and the transmittance of the glass in a short wavelength region in a visible light region is lowered, so that the glass tends to be colored. Therefore, TiO in the present invention2The content is 0 to 5 wt%, preferably TiO2The content is 0.1 to 5% by weight, more preferably 0.5 to 3% by weight.
WO3The effect of increasing the refractive index is exhibited, but when the content exceeds 7 wt%, the dispersion is significantly increased, and the transmittance on the short wavelength side of the visible light region of the glass is decreased, and the tendency of coloring is increased. Therefore, in the present invention, WO3In an amount of 0 to 7 wt%, preferably WO3The content of (B) is 0.1 to 5% by weight, more preferably 0.5 to 4% by weight.
Ta2O5Has the effect of increasing the refractive index, has the effect of maintaining the low dispersion of the glass, and if the content thereof is more than 15% by weight, the cost of the optical glass is increased because the price thereof is more expensive than other components, and therefore, the present invention reduces the amount thereof used from the viewpoint of practicality and cost. Ta of the invention2O5The content is 0 to 15 wt%, preferably Ta2O5The content is 0.5 to 10% by weight, more preferably 3 to 10% by weight.
While ZnO can adjust the refractive index and dispersion of the glass, and a suitable amount of ZnO can improve the stability or melting property of the glass and press formability, when the content is more than 10% by weight, the refractive index decreases, which does not meet the requirements of the present invention, and the devitrification resistance of the glass decreases and the upper limit temperature of devitrification increases. Accordingly, the ZnO content of the present invention is 0 to 10% by weight, preferably 0 to 5% by weight, more preferably 1 to 3% by weight.
Nb2O5The glass is a high-refraction high-dispersion component, can improve the refractive index while not obviously improving the dispersion, and also has the functions of improving the crystallization resistance and the chemical stability of the glass. If the content exceeds 8.5% by weight, the optical characteristics of the glass of the present invention cannot be achieved and the devitrification resistance of the glass is deteriorated. Therefore, Nb in the present invention2O5The content is 0 to 8.5 wt%, and preferably no introduction.
The inventors found that the optical glass of the present application is required to have excellent optical properties, devitrification resistance and striae grade, and the inventors of the present application found through extensive studies that by controlling TiO2、WO3And La2O3The total weight of (A) and (B)2O3、Nb2O5、SiO2、ZrO2And Gd2O3The total weight ratio of the components is not more than 0.95, so that the components play a synergistic action, the optical constant of the glass is improved, the chemical uniformity is improved, the refractive index of the obtained optical glass is more than 1.86, the Abbe number is more than 38.8, the stripe is more than C grade, and the obtained optical glass has excellent devitrification resistance, and the TiO is preferably controlled to be more than or equal to2、WO3And La2O3The total weight of (A) and (B)2O3、Nb2O5、SiO2、ZrO2And Gd2O3The total weight ratio of (A) to (B) is 0.75 to 0.93, the refractive index of the obtained optical glass is 1.87 to 1.89, the Abbe number is 39.0 to 41.0, and the striae are B-class or higher, preferably A-class.
Meanwhile, the inventor also finds that the optical glass of the application also requires lower transition temperature, and the inventor finds that the optical glass of the application has low transition temperature by controlling Nb through a great deal of research2O5、SiO2、TiO2And Gd2O3The total weight of (A) and (B)2O3、Nb2O5、ZrO2、WO3And La2O3The total weight ratio of (A) is 0.5 to 0.8, so that the components exert a synergistic effect, the glass transition temperature is lowered, the transition temperature of the obtained optical glass is not higher than 730 ℃, and Nb is preferably controlled2O5、SiO2、TiO2And Gd2O3The total weight of (A) and (B)2O3、Nb2O5、ZrO2、WO3And La2O3The ratio of the total weight of (A) to (B) is 0.6 to 0.72, and the transition temperature of the obtained optical glass is not higher than 725 ℃, preferably not higher than 720 ℃.
Further, the inventors have found that the optical glass of the present application is also required to have excellent light transmission characteristics, and the inventors of the present application have found through extensive studies that ZrO can be controlled2、TiO2And Gd2O3Total weight of (2) and Nb2O5、SiO2、La2O3And Gd2O3The total weight ratio of (A) to (B) is 0.35 to 0.6, so that the components exert a synergistic effect, the transition temperature of the glass is reduced, the glass transmittance is improved, and the lambda of the obtained optical glass70Not more than 420nm, lambda5Not more than 360nm, a transition temperature of not more than 730 ℃, and further preferably ZrO controlled2、TiO2And Gd2O3Total weight of (2) and Nb2O5、SiO2、La2O3And Gd2O3The ratio of the total weight of (A) to (B) is 0.4 to 0.6, and the obtained optical glass has a lambda of70No more than 390nm, lambda5No greater than 350nm, and a transition temperature no greater than 725 degrees celsius, preferably no greater than 720 degrees celsius.
According to still another embodiment of the present invention, the above optical glass further comprises: 0 to 1% by weight of Sb2O3And/or 0 to 1 wt.% of SnO2And/or 0 to 1% by weight of CeO2And/or 0 to 10 wt% of Yb2O3And/or 0 to 10 wt% of Lu2O3And/or 0 to 10% by weight of Al2O3And/or 0 to 10% by weight ofBi2O3And/or 0 to 10% by weight of GeO2And/or 0 to 10% by weight of Li2O、Na2O and K2O and/or 0-10 wt% of CaO, SrO, BaO and MgO. The inventors found that Sb was added in a small amount2O3And/or SnO2And/or CeO2The component can improve the fining effect of the glass, but when Sb is used2O3When the content exceeds 1% by weight, the glass tends to have a reduced fining property and the deterioration of a forming mold is promoted by its strong oxidizing action, so Sb is preferable in the present invention2O3The amount of (B) is 0 to 1% by weight, more preferably 0 to 0.5% by weight, and further preferably not added. SnO2However, when the content exceeds 1% by weight, the glass is colored, or when the glass is heated, softened, press-molded or the like and then reformed, Sn becomes a starting point of crystal nucleus formation, and thus devitrification tends to occur. Thus the SnO of the invention2The content of (b) is preferably 0 to 1% by weight, more preferably 0 to 0.5% by weight, and further preferably not added. CeO (CeO)2Action and addition amount ratio of (B) and SnO2The content is preferably 0 to 1% by weight, more preferably 0 to 0.5% by weight, and further preferably no addition. Yb of2O3Also in the glass of the present invention, when the content of the high-refractivity low-dispersion component exceeds 10% by weight, the stability and devitrification resistance of the glass are lowered, and Yb is preferable2O3The content ranges from 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably from 0 to 8% by weight, and further preferably is not incorporated. Lu (Lu)2O3The refractive index of the glass can be increased and the dispersion can be reduced, but when the content exceeds 10% by weight, the glass is deteriorated in both devitrification resistance and melting property, and the cost of the optical glass is increased because it is expensive compared with other components. Thus, Lu of the present invention2O30-10% of (A), Lu2O3The content is preferably in the range of 0 to 8% by weight, more preferably not incorporated. Introducing small amount of Al2O3The glass forming stability and chemical stability can be improved, but when the content exceeds 10% by weight, the glass melting property tends to be deteriorated and the devitrification resistance tends to be lowered, and therefore, the present invention is directed toMore preferably Al2O3The content of (B) is 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0 to 8% by weight. Bi2O3Although the refractive index of the glass can be increased, when added in an excessive amount, the transmittance at the short wavelength side of the visible light region is lowered, and the glass tends to be colored, so Bi is preferred in the present invention2O3The content is 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0 to 5% by weight, and further preferably not incorporated. GeO2The glass forming stability and devitrification resistance can also be effectively improved, but due to GeO2Is a very expensive component, GeO is therefore preferred2The content is 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0 to 5% by weight, and further preferably not incorporated. Li2O、Na2O and K2O is a component for suppressing phase separation and improving the stability of the glass. When the total content thereof exceeds 10% by weight, there is a tendency that the weather resistance is remarkably lowered or the refractive index is lowered, so Li is preferable in the present invention2O、Na2O and K2The total content of O is 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0 to 5% by weight, and still more preferably not incorporated. Alkaline earth metal oxides such as CaO, SrO, BaO and MgO can significantly reduce the weather resistance of the glass and raise the crystallization upper limit temperature, but when the total content thereof exceeds 10% by weight, the devitrification resistance of the glass is reduced, so that the total weight of CaO, SrO, BaO and MgO is preferably 0 to 10% by weight, more preferably in the range of 0 to 5% by weight, and further preferably not incorporated.

Further, since the prism has a high refractive index, by combining the prism with an imaging optical system and bending the optical path to direct the prism in a desired direction, a compact and wide-angle optical system can be realized. Specifically, the glass preform is annealed to reduce the deformation in the glass and fine-tune the glass so that the optical characteristics such as refractive index and the like reach a desired value, and then each preform is ground and polished to produce various lenses such as a concave meniscus lens, a convex meniscus lens, a biconvex lens, a biconcave lens, a plano-convex lens, and a plano-concave lens, or optical elements such as prisms, and the surfaces of the optical elements obtained may be coated with an antireflection film. It should be noted that the features and advantages described above for the glass preform apply equally to the optical element and are not described in further detail here.
