Detailed Description
The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", and the like, indicate orientations or positional relationships based on those shown in the drawings, and are used only for convenience in describing the present invention and for simplicity in description, and do not indicate or imply that the referenced devices or elements must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and thus, are not to be construed as limiting the present invention. In the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means two or more unless specifically defined otherwise.
In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly stated or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," "secured," and the like are to be construed broadly and can, for example, be fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally formed; can be mechanically or electrically connected; either directly or indirectly through intervening media, either internally or in any other relationship. The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art according to specific situations.

Example 1:
FIG. 1 is a schematic view showing homogenized light spots of a general microlens array produced by closely arranging microlenses of the same size, wherein the microlenses constituting the general microlens array have an aperture of 60 μm and a curvature of 52mm-1The cone coefficient is-1.02; FIG. 2 is a graph of intensity distribution for horizontal and vertical cross-sections of the FIG. 1 homogenization spot. It can be seen that, the homogenization light spots of the existing common microlens array have a lot of interference fringes due to the periodic arrangement of the existing common microlens array and the coherence of the laser, and the homogenization light spots are affected by the interference of multiple beams, so that a lot of interference fringes are generated, and the interference fringes affect the homogenization effect of the diffusion sheet on the beams. It can also be seen from fig. 2 that the intensity distribution of the horizontal and vertical cross sections of the light spot obtained by the conventional microlens array has a large fluctuation, which results in uneven brightness of the whole light spot.
Referring to fig. 3-13, the present invention provides an engineered diffuser that can reduce the periodic arrangement of a microlens array and the coherence of laser, improve the uniformity of light spots, and reduce the generation of interference fringes, and the specific scheme is as follows:

In one embodiment, a group of the base lenses is composed of a plurality of microlenses having the same curvature, conic coefficient, and aperture. Referring to fig. 6 and 8, fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a random quadrilateral microlens array composed of a group of basic lenses, wherein the group of basic lenses is composed of a plurality of lenses a having the same curvature, conic coefficient and aperture. Fig. 8 is a schematic diagram of a tesson polygonal microlens array consisting of a set of base lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses a having the same curvature, conic index and aperture. The plurality of micro lenses in the group of base lenses are randomly arranged on the surface of the optical substrate, and the random arrangement can make the boundaries of the micro lenses random, thereby being beneficial to breaking the periodicity of the micro lens array and reducing the generation of interference fringes.
In one embodiment, any one of the base lenses of the plurality of base lenses that make up the microlens array has a different curvature and/or conic index and/or caliber than any one of the base lenses of another of the base lenses of the plurality of base lenses that make up the microlens array. As can be understood with reference to fig. 7, fig. 7 is a schematic diagram of a random quadrilateral microlens array consisting of four sets of base lenses: a first group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses A with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, a second group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses B with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, a third group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses C with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, and a fourth group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses D with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, namely, the lenses A, B, C and D in FIG. 7 have different curvatures and/or conical coefficients; the lens A, the lens B, the lens C and the lens D can be irregularly arranged, the probability of the lens A, the probability of the lens B, the probability of the lens C and the probability of the lens D are basically the same, and the light spots can be more uniform through the multiple groups of different basic lenses.
As can also be understood with reference to fig. 9, fig. 9 is a schematic illustration of a tesson polygonal microlens array consisting of four sets of base lenses in one embodiment, wherein the four sets of base lenses are: the lens comprises a first group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses A with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, a second group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses B with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, a third group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses C with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber, and a fourth group of basic lenses consisting of a plurality of lenses D with the same curvature, conical coefficient and caliber. I.e. lens a, lens B, lens C and lens D in fig. 9 have different curvatures and/or conic coefficients from each other. As can be seen from the above, fig. 7 and 9 both select four groups of basic lenses for illustration, and certainly, 3-5 groups and 5-10 groups of basic lenses may also be selected for illustration, which are not described herein again.
In one embodiment, the shape of the microlenses constituting the microlens array may be any polygon, such as a quadrangle, a pentagon, a hexagon, etc., and may also be any shape formed by a tesson polygon. The Thiessen polygon, called Voronoi Diagram, is a set of continuous polygons composed of perpendicular bisectors connecting two adjacent point line segments, and the distances from any point on the edge to the corresponding control point are equal.
In the invention, the random different areas of each microlens in each group of the basic lenses are randomly arranged to form the microlens array, and the random different areas of each microlens are used as the sub-lenses forming the microlens array.

Closely-arranged polygons can be formed on the optical substrate, the boundaries of the polygons are random, each polygon is filled with one sub-lens, and the boundary of each sub-lens is the minimum bounding rectangle of the polygon. That is, each microlens in each group of base lenses is divided into 4 regions, and the size of each region is larger than the size of the microlens expected to be arranged to form the microlens array (i.e., the solid line in fig. 10a to 10d ranges from the size of the microlens expected to be arranged to form the microlens array, and the divided regions on the microlenses are circumscribed by the dotted line, and the dashed line boundary is a circumscribed quadrangle of the solid line boundary); dividing each microlens in each group of basic lenses into 4 regions according to the method, and randomly filling any one of the divided upper left sub-lens, lower left sub-lens, upper right sub-lens and lower right sub-lens into a pre-designed random quadrilateral microlens array.
