TABLE 1
As shown in fig. 4, which is a simulated reflectance spectrum of the microlens element at different incident angles, the wavelength of the incident light is 905 nm. As can be seen from the graph, under the wavelength of 905nm, when the incident angle is in the range of 0-30 degrees, the spectral curve change is not obvious, and the reflectivity is close to 0.2%; the reflectance spectrum rapidly increased at an incident angle in the range of 30 ° to 60 °, while the reflectance was 3.5% at an incident angle of 60 °.
As shown in fig. 5, which is a measured reflectance spectrum of the microlens element at different incident angles, the wavelength of the incident light is 905 nm. When the incident angle AOI is 0 °, the reflectance is 0.25%, and the simulated value and the measured value are close to each other. When the angle of incidence AOI is 45 °, the measured reflectance is 0.9%, which is 0.4% greater than the simulated reflectance.
As shown in fig. 6, the reflectance spectrum and the transmittance spectrum of the microlens element at an incidence angle AOI of 0 ° are shown, and the wavelength of the incident light is 905 nm. The lenticular surface refers to a surface of the micro-structural layer 20 away from the substrate layer 10, and the non-lenticular surface refers to a surface of the substrate layer 10 away from the micro-structural layer 20. The surface of the columnar microlens on the side away from the base layer 10 may be spherical or aspherical. As can be seen from the comparison, the reflectivities of the microlens elements of the spherical and aspherical microlenses are similar, and the reflectivities of the lens surfaces of the microlens elements of the spherical and aspherical microlenses are both slightly lower than the reflectivities of the non-lens surfaces.
As shown in the upper left reflectance graph of the figure, when the surface of the microlens element on the side away from the base layer 10 is a spherical surface and the incident angle AOI is 0 °, the reflectance of the lens surface of the spherical surface of the microlens element is about 0.08%, and the reflectance of the non-lens surface is about 0.12%; as shown in the upper right reflectance graph of the figure, when the surface of the microlens element on the side away from the base layer 10 is aspheric, the reflectance of the aspheric lens surface is about 0.08%, and the reflectance of the non-lens surface is about 0.14%. When the incidence angle AOI is 0 ° as shown by the lower left transmittance curve in the graph, the transmittance of the lens surface of the spherical surface of the microlens element after the antireflection film processing is about 98.3% and the transmittance of the non-lens surface is about 99.1% in comparison with the transmittance spectrum; as shown in the lower right transmittance curve in the figure, the transmittance of the aspherical lens surface of the microlens element after the antireflection film processing was about 98.5%, and the transmittance of the non-lens surface was about 98.6%.
As shown in fig. 7, the reflection spectrum and the transmission spectrum of the microlens element at an incidence angle AOI of 45 ° are shown, and the wavelength of the incident light is 905 nm. The reflectivity of the non-lens surface of the microlens element of the spherical and aspherical microlenses is similar, and the reflectivity of the lens surface of the spherical cylindrical lens is obviously lower than that of the aspherical cylindrical lens. As shown by the upper left and lower left curves in the figure, the reflectance spectrum and the transmittance spectrum of the microlens element in which the surface of the microlens remote from the base layer 10 is spherical are shown, respectively. As shown in the upper right and lower right curves of the figure, the reflectance spectrum and the transmittance spectrum of the microlens element in which the surface of the microlens remote from the base layer 10 is aspherical are shown. As can be seen from the figure, when the incident angle AOI is 45 degrees, the reflectance of the lens surface of the spherical microlens after antireflection film processing is about 0.8%, and the reflectance of the non-lens surface is about 1.5%; the reflectance of the lens surface of the aspherical microlens after the antireflection film processing was about 1.6%, and the reflectance of the non-lens surface was about 1.7%. Meanwhile, the transmission spectrograms are compared, and the transmissivity of the two surfaces of the spherical micro lens processed by the antireflection film is higher than that of the aspherical micro lens. When the incidence angle AOI is 45 degrees, the transmittance of the lens surface of the spherical microlens after the antireflection film processing is about 64%, and the transmittance of the non-lens surface is about 66%; the transmittance of the lens surface of the aspherical microlens after the antireflection film processing was about 63%, and the transmittance of the non-lens surface was about 64%.
According to the different incident angles, the reflectivity and the transmissivity spectrum of the spherical or aspherical cylindrical micro lens processed by the antireflection film are analyzed to obtain: on the one hand, the raised layer 22 of the columnar microlens increases the reflectivity of the non-lens surface; on the other hand, when the incident angle is small, for example, the incident angle AOI is 0 °, the reflectance and transmittance of the spherical cylindrical microlens and the aspherical cylindrical microlens are close; when the incident angle is large, for example, AOI is 45 °, the reflectance and transmittance of the spherical cylindrical microlens are slightly better than those of the aspherical cylindrical microlens. For the small-angle antireflection performance of the light source, the spherical cylindrical micro lens is slightly superior to the aspherical cylindrical micro lens.
FIG. 8 shows a reflection spectrum and a transmission spectrum of a microlens element without a plating anti-reflection film in the prior art. As can be seen from the figure, the reflectance of the microlens element coated with the antireflection film is significantly reduced and the transmittance is significantly improved compared with the case of no coating.
Example two
As shown in fig. 9 to 14, the difference from the first embodiment is that there is one microlens in the first embodiment, and there are a plurality of microlenses in the second embodiment.
As shown in fig. 9 and 10, when there are a plurality of microlenses, the plurality of microlenses are sequentially arranged along a straight line to form a microlens array, and the arrangement direction of the microlens array is perpendicular to the extending direction of the single microlens. The length of the micro lens array is more than or equal to 2mm and less than or equal to 9 mm; the width of the micro lens array is more than or equal to 0.05mm and less than or equal to 0.3 mm; the height of the microlens array is 0.2mm or more and 0.8mm or less. The number of the micro lenses is more than 1 and less than or equal to 50. Length width height of individual microlens satisfies: 2mm 0.05mm 0.2mm to 9mm 0.3mm 0.8 mm.
In this example, the length, width, and height of a single microlens in the shape of a pillar are 5mm 0.14mm 0.48mm, and the length, width, and height of a microlens array formed by arranging a plurality of microlenses are 5mm 3.92mm 0.48 mm.
As shown in fig. 11, which is a schematic cross-sectional sem of the microlens element in this embodiment, it can be seen that the material of the microlens array is similar to that of the base layer 10, the microlens array is processed by imprint lithography, the thickness of the primer layer 21 is about 60 μm, and the height of the ridge portion is about 3 μm to 4 μm.
Referring to the first embodiment, the antireflection film is provided, and as shown in fig. 12, the reflection spectrum (left side) and the transmission spectrum (right side) of the microlens element after processing the antireflection film when the wavelength of incident light is 905nm and the incident angle AOI is 0 °. As shown in fig. 13, the reflection spectrum (left side) and the transmission spectrum (right side) of the microlens element after the antireflection film processing when the wavelength of the incident light is 905nm and the incident angle AOI is 20 °. As can be seen from the figure, when the incident angle AOI is 0 °, the reflectance of the lens surface of the microlens array after the antireflection film processing is about 0.06%, and the reflectance of the non-lens surface is about 0.05%; the transmittance of the lens surface of the microlens array after the antireflection film processing is about 90%, and the transmittance of the non-lens surface is about 90%. When the incident angle AOI is 20 degrees, the reflectivity of the lens surface of the micro-lens array processed by the antireflection film is about 0 percent, and the reflectivity of the non-lens surface is about 0.2 percent; the transmittance of the lens surface of the microlens array after the antireflection film processing was about 87%, and the transmittance of the non-lens surface was about 87%.
And comparing the reflectivity spectrum after the antireflection film is processed, when the incidence angle AOI is 0 degrees, the reflectivity of the lens surface and the non-lens surface of the micro-lens array is similar, and when the incidence angle AOI is increased to 20 degrees, the conclusion is similar. Since the reflectance spectra with an angle of incidence AOI of 0 ° and 20 ° are not tested on the same equipment, the equipment accuracy is tested, resulting in a slight difference in the spectra. In addition, when the transmittance spectra after the antireflection film processing were compared, it was found that the incident angle was increased and the transmittance of the microlens array was decreased.
From the above analysis, it can be found that the reflectivities of the lens surface and the non-lens surface of the microlens array after the antireflection film processing are similar at the same incident angle, and the comparison result of the transmittance is similar, and in addition, the spectrum result is similar to that of the actually processed sample in the example.
As shown in fig. 14, a reflection spectrum and a transmission spectrum of a microlens element of a microlens array without plating an antireflection film in the related art are shown. It can be seen that the reflectivity of the microlens element of the present application is significantly reduced and the transmittance is significantly improved compared to that of the microlens element without the anti-reflection coating.
