Description

本発明は、集光装置、その集光装置を備える光発電装置、その集光装置の製造方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a light collecting device, a photovoltaic device including the light collecting device, and a method for manufacturing the light collecting device.

表面から入射した光を裏面から出射する第1プリズム部材と、その第1プリズム部材の裏面に対向して設けられた第2プリズム部材とを備える集光装置が知られている(特許文献1)。   A condensing device including a first prism member that emits light incident from the front surface from the back surface and a second prism member provided to face the back surface of the first prism member is known (Patent Document 1). .

国際公開第2013/058381号International Publication No. 2013/058381

特許文献1に記載の集光装置では、図12に示されるように、第2プリズム部材320は、その入射面321が、導光面3211と連絡面3213が反射面3212から周期的に突出する複雑な形状を有している。このような複雑な形状の光学部材は、アクリルなどの樹脂材料を用いれば形成し易い。しかし、樹脂材料は紫外域と赤外域の光の透過率が低い。太陽光は第2プリズム部材320中の比較的長い距離を進むため、第2プリズム部材320が樹脂材料により形成されている場合には、太陽光に含まれている紫外光や赤外光が吸収されて集光効率が低下してしまう。特に、赤外光については相当量が吸収されてしまう。第2プリズム部材320がガラスにより形成されている場合には、樹脂により形成した場合に比べて集光率は高い。しかし、ガラスにより第2プリズム部材320のような複雑な形状を加工することは難しい。   In the light collecting device described in Patent Document 1, as shown in FIG. 12, the second prism member 320 has a light incident surface 321 and a light guide surface 3211 and a communication surface 3213 that periodically protrude from the reflective surface 3212. It has a complicated shape. Such a complicated-shaped optical member can be easily formed by using a resin material such as acrylic. However, the resin material has low light transmittance in the ultraviolet and infrared regions. Since sunlight travels a relatively long distance in the second prism member 320, when the second prism member 320 is formed of a resin material, ultraviolet light and infrared light contained in the sunlight are absorbed. As a result, the light collection efficiency decreases. In particular, a considerable amount of infrared light is absorbed. When the second prism member 320 is made of glass, the light collection rate is higher than when the second prism member 320 is made of resin. However, it is difficult to process a complicated shape such as the second prism member 320 with glass.

本発明は、以上のような事情に鑑みてなされたものであり、太陽光の透過率が優れた第2プリズム部材を用いることにより、集光効率に優れた集光装置、その集光装置を備える光発電装置、および、その集光装置の製造方法を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the circumstances as described above. By using the second prism member having excellent sunlight transmittance, a light collecting device having excellent light collecting efficiency, and the light collecting device are provided. It is an object of the present invention to provide a photovoltaic device and a method for manufacturing the light collecting device.

本発明による集光装置は、互いに対向する第1の表面と第1の裏面とを有する第1の光学部材と、互いに対向する第2の表面と第2の裏面とを有し、第2の表面が第1の裏面に対向するように配置される第2の光学部材と、を備え、第1の光学部材は、第1の表面に入射する光束を集光する複数の集光構造が互いに平行に第1の表面に配列されるとともに、複数の集光構造によって集光された集光光束をそれぞれ偏向する複数の偏向構造が互いに平行に複数の集光構造に対応するように第1の裏面に配列され、複数の偏向構造の各々は、偏向面と出射面とを有し、偏向面によって偏向された集光光束を出射面から出射し、第2の光学部材は、出射面から出射された集光光束を受光する複数の受光構造が互いに平行に複数の偏向構造に対応するように第2の表面に突設され、複数の受光構造の各々が受光した集光光束を第2の裏面が反射し、第2の光学部材の本体部はガラス材料からなり、複数の受光構造の各々は樹脂材料からなり、本体部に接合されていることを特徴とする。   The light collecting device according to the present invention includes a first optical member having a first surface and a first back surface facing each other, a second surface and a second back surface facing each other, and a second optical member. A second optical member disposed so that the front surface faces the first back surface, and the first optical member has a plurality of condensing structures that condense light beams incident on the first surface. A plurality of deflecting structures arranged in parallel on the first surface and deflecting the condensed light beams collected by the plurality of light collecting structures respectively correspond to the plurality of light collecting structures in parallel with each other. Each of the plurality of deflection structures arranged on the back surface has a deflection surface and an exit surface, emits the condensed light beam deflected by the deflection surface from the exit surface, and the second optical member exits from the exit surface. A plurality of light receiving structures that receive the collected light flux correspond to a plurality of deflection structures in parallel with each other The second back surface reflects the condensed light beam projected from the second surface and received by each of the plurality of light receiving structures, and the main body portion of the second optical member is made of a glass material. Each is made of a resin material and is bonded to the main body.

本発明によれば、集光効率に優れた集光装置、その集光装置を備える光発電装置、およびその集光装置の製造方法を提供することができる。   ADVANTAGE OF THE INVENTION According to this invention, the condensing apparatus excellent in condensing efficiency, a photovoltaic device provided with the condensing apparatus, and the manufacturing method of the condensing apparatus can be provided.

(第1の実施の形態)
図1は、本発明の第1の実施の形態における集光装置を用いた光発電装置の概略構成図である。図1に例示される光発電装置1は、第1プリズム部材310aおよび第2プリズム部材320aからなる集光装置300aと、多接合型の光電変換素子330とを備える。
(First embodiment)
FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram of a photovoltaic power generation device using a light condensing device according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The photovoltaic device 1 illustrated in FIG. 1 includes a condensing device 300a including a first prism member 310a and a second prism member 320a, and a multijunction photoelectric conversion element 330.

第1プリズム部材310aは、図12に示す特許文献1の第1プリズム部材310と同一である。すなわち、第1プリズム部材310aは、光を入射させる表面に複数の集光構造311が互いに平行に配列されるとともに、集光構造311に集光された集光光束を斜めに偏向させて出射させる複数の偏向構造315が互いに平行に裏面に配列されている。複数の集光構造311と複数の偏向構造315は、x軸方向に同一ピッチで配列されており、一対一の対応関係がある。   The first prism member 310a is the same as the first prism member 310 of Patent Document 1 shown in FIG. In other words, the first prism member 310a has a plurality of condensing structures 311 arranged in parallel to each other on the surface on which light is incident, and emits the condensed light beam condensed on the condensing structure 311 obliquely. A plurality of deflection structures 315 are arranged on the back surface in parallel to each other. The plurality of light collecting structures 311 and the plurality of deflection structures 315 are arranged at the same pitch in the x-axis direction and have a one-to-one correspondence.

第2プリズム部材320aは、第2プリズム部材320aの表面が第1プリズム部材310aの裏面に対向するように設けられる。第2プリズム部材320aは、三角柱形状の本体部327と、本体部327の上面3271の上にx軸方向に周期的に配列された複数の凸部328とを有する。本体部327には、太陽光の広い波長域に対して高い透過率を有するガラス、例えば光学ガラスBK7を用いる。   The second prism member 320a is provided so that the surface of the second prism member 320a faces the back surface of the first prism member 310a. The second prism member 320a has a triangular prism main body 327 and a plurality of convex portions 328 arranged periodically on the upper surface 3271 of the main body 327 in the x-axis direction. For the main body 327, glass having high transmittance with respect to a wide wavelength range of sunlight, for example, optical glass BK7 is used.

第2プリズム部材320aの凸部328は、第1プリズム部材310aの出射光を受光する受光構造を構成する。第2プリズム部材320aは、凸部328で受光した、すなわち凸部328に入射した光を出射面325に導く。出射面325は、上面3271および反射構造322のそれぞれと接しているとともに、光電変換素子330が接着されている。光電変換素子330は、出射面325に導かれ出射面325から出射した光を受光して光電変換する。   The convex portion 328 of the second prism member 320a constitutes a light receiving structure that receives the emitted light of the first prism member 310a. The second prism member 320 a guides the light received by the convex portion 328, that is, the light incident on the convex portion 328 to the emission surface 325. The emission surface 325 is in contact with each of the upper surface 3271 and the reflection structure 322, and the photoelectric conversion element 330 is bonded thereto. The photoelectric conversion element 330 receives the light guided to the emission surface 325 and emitted from the emission surface 325 and photoelectrically converts it.

凸部328には、複雑な形状を容易に形成可能な紫外線硬化樹脂を用いる。凸部328の屈折率は、本体部327の屈折率と略同一であることが好ましい。凸部328は、適当な型を用意し、本体部327の上面3271に紫外線硬化樹脂を塗布した後、型を紫外線硬化樹脂に押し当て、その状態で紫外線を照射して硬化させることで形成することができる。   For the convex portion 328, an ultraviolet curable resin capable of easily forming a complicated shape is used. The refractive index of the convex part 328 is preferably substantially the same as the refractive index of the main body part 327. The convex portion 328 is formed by preparing an appropriate mold, applying an ultraviolet curable resin to the upper surface 3271 of the main body 327, pressing the mold against the ultraviolet curable resin, and irradiating and curing the ultraviolet ray in that state. be able to.

偏向構造315の第2面317(図12参照)と、凸部328の導光面3211とは、接合部319により接合されている。接合部319の屈折率は、第1プリズム部材310aの屈折率と第2プリズム部材320aの屈折率と略同一であることが好ましい。   The second surface 317 (see FIG. 12) of the deflection structure 315 and the light guide surface 3211 of the convex portion 328 are joined by a joint portion 319. The refractive index of the joint 319 is preferably substantially the same as the refractive index of the first prism member 310a and the refractive index of the second prism member 320a.

偏向構造315から出射した光は、接合部319を透過して導光面3211(図12参照)から第2プリズム部材320aに入射する。第2プリズム部材320aに入射した光は、本体部327と凸部328との境界を透過して、本体部327の反射構造322で全反射され、再び本体部327と凸部328との境界を透過して、凸部328の反射面3212で全反射される。第2プリズム部材320aの入射光は、本体部327の反射構造322と凸部328の反射面3212との間で繰り返し全反射して出射面325へ導かれる。   The light emitted from the deflection structure 315 passes through the joint portion 319 and enters the second prism member 320a from the light guide surface 3211 (see FIG. 12). The light incident on the second prism member 320a passes through the boundary between the main body portion 327 and the convex portion 328, is totally reflected by the reflection structure 322 of the main body portion 327, and again passes through the boundary between the main body portion 327 and the convex portion 328. The light is transmitted and totally reflected by the reflection surface 3212 of the convex portion 328. Incident light of the second prism member 320 a is repeatedly totally reflected between the reflection structure 322 of the main body 327 and the reflection surface 3212 of the convex portion 328 and guided to the emission surface 325.

次に、集光装置300aに用いる材料について説明する。図2(a)は、AM1.5の測定条件で測定された太陽光の直達日射量の波長特性を示す。図2(a)から明らかなように、太陽光は、紫外光と、可視光と、赤外光とを含み、特に、赤外域に広い波長域にわたる光を含む。   Next, the material used for the condensing device 300a will be described. Fig.2 (a) shows the wavelength characteristic of the direct solar radiation amount of sunlight measured on the measurement conditions of AM1.5. As is apparent from FIG. 2A, sunlight includes ultraviolet light, visible light, and infrared light, and particularly includes light over a wide wavelength range in the infrared region.

図2(b)は、PMMAおよび光学ガラスBK7の厚さ10mmあたりのそれぞれ分光透過率を示す。図2(b)からわかる通り、PMMAは、BK7に比べて紫外域および赤外域の透過率が低い。第2プリズム部材320aの内部では、太陽光は比較的長い距離を伝播する。従って、第2プリズム部材320aの材料としてPMMAを用いた場合、かなりの量の紫外光および赤外光が第2プリズム部材320aにより吸収されてしまう。一方、第2プリズム部材320aの材料としてBK7を用いた場合には、このような吸収を大幅に抑制できる。本発明にかかる集光装置では、太陽光が長い距離を伝播する第2プリズム部材320aの本体部327にはガラスを用い、ガラスでは形成しにくい凸部328のみに樹脂材料(例えば、紫外線硬化樹脂)を用いることにより、太陽光が伝播する樹脂部の長さ(厚さ)をできるだけ小さくして、紫外光および赤外光の吸収を抑制する。   FIG. 2B shows the spectral transmittances per 10 mm thickness of PMMA and optical glass BK7. As can be seen from FIG. 2B, PMMA has lower transmittance in the ultraviolet region and infrared region than BK7. Within the second prism member 320a, sunlight propagates a relatively long distance. Therefore, when PMMA is used as the material of the second prism member 320a, a considerable amount of ultraviolet light and infrared light are absorbed by the second prism member 320a. On the other hand, when BK7 is used as the material of the second prism member 320a, such absorption can be significantly suppressed. In the light collecting device according to the present invention, glass is used for the main body portion 327 of the second prism member 320a through which sunlight propagates a long distance, and only a convex material 328 that is difficult to form with glass is made of a resin material (for example, an ultraviolet curable resin). ), The length (thickness) of the resin part through which sunlight propagates is made as small as possible to suppress the absorption of ultraviolet light and infrared light.

図3は、光電変換素子330の構造の一例を模式的に表した図である。図3に例示された光電変換素子330は、光の入射面から順に、所定波長域の光を選択的に光電変換するL1層、L2層、L3層が配置され、これらは電気的に直列に接続される。
(Power generation efficiency of photovoltaic device)
FIG. 3 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the structure of the photoelectric conversion element 330. The photoelectric conversion element 330 illustrated in FIG. 3 includes, in order from the light incident surface, an L1 layer, an L2 layer, and an L3 layer that selectively photoelectrically convert light in a predetermined wavelength range, and these are electrically connected in series. Connected.

図4は、L1層、L2層、L3層の量子効率の波長特性を示す。ここで、量子効率とは、入射した光子の数と光子により励起したキャリアの数との比である。図4に示した例では、L1層は約650nm以下の波長の光に対して量子効率が高く、L2層は約650nmから約900nmの光に対して量子効率が高く、L3層は約900nm以上の波長の光に対して量子効率が高い。   FIG. 4 shows the wavelength characteristics of the quantum efficiencies of the L1, L2, and L3 layers. Here, the quantum efficiency is a ratio between the number of incident photons and the number of carriers excited by the photons. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the L1 layer has high quantum efficiency for light having a wavelength of about 650 nm or less, the L2 layer has high quantum efficiency for light of about 650 nm to about 900 nm, and the L3 layer has about 900 nm or more. Quantum efficiency is high for light with a wavelength of.

太陽光に含まれる波長が約650nm以下の光は、L1層で光電変換される。太陽光に含まれる波長が約650nmから約900nmの光は、L1層を通過してL2層で光電変換される。太陽光に含まれる波長が約900nm以上の波長の光は、L1層とL2層を通過してL3層で光電変換される。   Light having a wavelength of about 650 nm or less contained in sunlight is photoelectrically converted in the L1 layer. Light having a wavelength of about 650 nm to about 900 nm contained in sunlight passes through the L1 layer and is photoelectrically converted in the L2 layer. Light having a wavelength of about 900 nm or more contained in sunlight passes through the L1 layer and the L2 layer and is photoelectrically converted in the L3 layer.

L1層、L2層、L3層は、直列接続されるため、光電変換素子330の出力電流iは、L1層の出力電流iL1、L2層の出力電流iL2、L3層の出力電流iL3のうちの最小値となる。 L1 layer, the L2 layer, the L3 layer, to be connected in series, the output current i of the photoelectric conversion element 330, the output current i L1, the output current of the L2 layer i L2, L3 layer of the output current i L3 L1 layer It becomes the minimum value of them.

太陽光が透過率τ(λ)の光学材料を透過してL1層に入射した際のL1層の出力電流iL1は、下式(1)で表される。
L1=∫{q・QL1(λ)・S・Pin(λ)・τ(λ)・λ/(h・c)}dλ …(1)
λ:光の波長
q:電子1個あたりの電荷1.602176487×10−19〔C〕

c:光速2.99792458×10〔m/s〕
The output current i L1 of the L1 layer when sunlight passes through the optical material having the transmittance τ (λ) and enters the L1 layer is expressed by the following equation (1).
i L1 = ∫ {q · Q L1 (λ) · S · P in (λ) · τ (λ) · λ / (h · c)} dλ (1)
λ: wavelength of light q: charge per electron 1.602176487 × 10 −19 [C]
Q L1 (λ): quantum efficiency of the L1 layer at the wavelength λ shown in FIG. 5 S: light receiving area of the L1 layer [m 2 ]
P in (λ): Intensity of light of wavelength λ shown in FIG. 3A [W / m 2 ]
τ (λ): Transmittance of optical material having a thickness of 10 mm for light of wavelength λ h: Planck's constant 6.6260896 × 10 −34 [J · s]
c: speed of light 2.99979458 × 10 8 [m / s]

太陽光が透過率τ(λ)の光学材料を透過してL2層およびL3層に入射した場合のL2層およびL3層の出力電流iL2およびiL3も同様にして計算することができる。 The output currents i L2 and i L3 of the L2 layer and the L3 layer when sunlight passes through the optical material having the transmittance τ (λ) and enters the L2 layer and the L3 layer can be similarly calculated.

図5(a)は、PMMAを介して光電変換素子に太陽光を導いた場合の、PMMAの厚さとL1層、L2層、L3層の単位受光面積(cm)あたりの出力電流〔mA/cm〕の各計算値を示す。図5(a)に示されるように、L3層の単位受光面積あたりの出力電流は、PMMAによる赤外光の吸収の影響により、PMMAが厚くなるに従って大きく減少し、厚さが約28mmを超えると、L1層、L2層の出力電流よりも小さくなる。 FIG. 5A shows the thickness of the PMMA and the output current per unit light receiving area (cm 2 ) of the L1, L2, and L3 layers [mA / mA when sunlight is guided to the photoelectric conversion element via the PMMA. Each calculated value of cm 2 ] is shown. As shown in FIG. 5A, the output current per unit light-receiving area of the L3 layer greatly decreases as the PMMA becomes thicker due to the influence of absorption of infrared light by the PMMA, and the thickness exceeds about 28 mm. And smaller than the output current of the L1 layer and the L2 layer.

一方、図5(b)には、BK7を介して光電変換素子に太陽光を導いた場合の、BK7の厚さとL1層、L2層、L3層の単位受光面積あたりの出力電流〔mA/cm〕の各計算値を示す。図5(b)に示されるように、BK7は赤外光をよく透過するため、PMMAの場合のような出力電流の低下は起きていない。従って、太陽光がPMMA中を伝播する距離はできるだけ小さくし、長い距離を伝播する部分はガラスにより構成されることが望ましいことがわかる。 On the other hand, FIG. 5B shows the thickness of BK7 and the output current per unit light-receiving area of the L1, L2, and L3 layers [mA / cm when sunlight is guided to the photoelectric conversion element via BK7. 2 ] shows each calculated value. As shown in FIG. 5B, since BK7 transmits infrared light well, the output current does not decrease as in the case of PMMA. Therefore, it can be seen that the distance that sunlight propagates through PMMA is as small as possible, and that the portion that propagates a long distance is preferably made of glass.

(1)第1の実施の形態による集光装置300aの第2プリズム部材320aは、ガラス材料で構成された本体部327に樹脂材料で構成された凸部328が接合されている。凸部328は、第1プリズム部材310aの偏向構造315に対応するように、第2プリズム部材320aの表面に一方向に配列されるとともに第1プリズム部材310aの出射面から出射された集光光束を受光する複数の受光構造として用いられる。したがって、集光装置300a、その集光装置300aを備える光発電装置1は、集光効率に優れている。
According to the first embodiment described above, the following operational effects are obtained.
(1) As for the 2nd prism member 320a of the condensing device 300a by 1st Embodiment, the convex part 328 comprised with the resin material is joined to the main-body part 327 comprised with the glass material. The convex portions 328 are arranged in one direction on the surface of the second prism member 320a so as to correspond to the deflection structure 315 of the first prism member 310a, and are condensed light beams emitted from the emission surface of the first prism member 310a. Are used as a plurality of light receiving structures. Therefore, the condensing device 300a and the photovoltaic device 1 including the condensing device 300a are excellent in condensing efficiency.

(第2の実施の形態)
図6は、本発明の第2の実施の形態における集光装置300bを用いた光発電装置の概略構成図である。図6に例示される光発電装置2は、裏面形状が第1プリズム部材310aと異なる第1プリズム部材310bを第1プリズム部材310aの代わりに備える点が第1の実施の形態による光発電装置1と異なっている。
(Second Embodiment)
FIG. 6 is a schematic configuration diagram of a photovoltaic power generation apparatus using the condensing device 300b according to the second embodiment of the present invention. The photovoltaic device 2 illustrated in FIG. 6 includes the photovoltaic device 1 according to the first embodiment in that a first prism member 310b having a back surface shape different from the first prism member 310a is provided instead of the first prism member 310a. Is different.

第2の実施の形態では、第1プリズム部材310bの裏面を、集光光束の偏向だけでなく、第2プリズム部材320aの凸部328を形成するための型としても用いる。図7は、第1プリズム部材310bの裏面と第2プリズム部材320aの表面との対向部を拡大した様子を示す。図7に示されるように、第1プリズム部材310bの裏面の形状は、成形すべき凸部328の形状に対応している。即ち、導光面3211は、第1プリズム部材310bの第2面317に対応する。また、第2プリズム部材320aの連絡面3213は、第1プリズム部材310bの第2面317に接続する第4面3171に対応する。第2プリズム部材の反射面3212は、第4面3171と接続する第5面3172に対応する。   In the second embodiment, the back surface of the first prism member 310b is used as a mold for forming the convex portion 328 of the second prism member 320a as well as the deflection of the condensed light flux. FIG. 7 shows a state in which a facing portion between the back surface of the first prism member 310b and the front surface of the second prism member 320a is enlarged. As shown in FIG. 7, the shape of the back surface of the first prism member 310b corresponds to the shape of the convex portion 328 to be formed. That is, the light guide surface 3211 corresponds to the second surface 317 of the first prism member 310b. The communication surface 3213 of the second prism member 320a corresponds to the fourth surface 3171 connected to the second surface 317 of the first prism member 310b. The reflecting surface 3212 of the second prism member corresponds to the fifth surface 3172 connected to the fourth surface 3171.

第1プリズム部材310bには、空隙部3173が設けられ、空隙部3173は開口部3173aにより、第3面318と第5面3172とを隔てている。空隙部3173は第1プリズム部材310bの第1面316において太陽光を全反射させるために設けられている。開口部3173aは、凸部328を成形する際に、例えば紫外線硬化樹脂が空隙部3173に入り込むことを防ぐ意味から、第1プリズム部材310bを製造可能な範囲でできるだけ狭いことが好ましい。   The first prism member 310 b is provided with a gap 3173, and the gap 3173 separates the third surface 318 and the fifth surface 3172 by the opening 3173 a. The gap 3173 is provided to totally reflect sunlight on the first surface 316 of the first prism member 310b. The opening 3173a is preferably as narrow as possible within the range in which the first prism member 310b can be manufactured in order to prevent, for example, ultraviolet curable resin from entering the gap 3173 when the convex portion 328 is formed.

凸部328の形成は次のように行う。まず、図8(a)に示すように、凸部328を形成すべき第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271に紫外線硬化樹脂3281を塗布する。紫外線硬化樹脂の塗布方法としては、ディスペンサーによる滴下、スピンコートによる塗布、スプレーによる塗布等、使用する紫外線硬化樹脂に適した種々の方法から選択することができる。次に、図8(b)に示すように、塗布された紫外線硬化樹脂に第1プリズム部材310bの裏面を押し当て、その状態を維持して紫外線を照射し、紫外線硬化樹脂を硬化させる。次に、硬化した紫外線硬化樹脂から第1プリズム部材310bの裏面を剥離することで、凸部328の形成は完了する。   The convex portion 328 is formed as follows. First, as shown in FIG. 8A, an ultraviolet curable resin 3281 is applied to the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a where the convex portion 328 is to be formed. The method of applying the ultraviolet curable resin can be selected from various methods suitable for the ultraviolet curable resin to be used, such as dropping by a dispenser, application by spin coating, and application by spraying. Next, as shown in FIG. 8B, the back surface of the first prism member 310b is pressed against the applied ultraviolet curable resin, and the ultraviolet curable resin is cured by irradiating ultraviolet rays while maintaining the state. Next, the back surface of the first prism member 310b is peeled from the cured ultraviolet curable resin, whereby the formation of the convex portion 328 is completed.

(集光装置300の生産方法)
ここでは、第1プリズム部材310bの裏面を型として用いて凸部328を形成する手順について説明する。図9は、集光装置300の製造方法の一例を示すフローチャートである。
(Production method of concentrating device 300)
Here, a procedure for forming the convex portion 328 using the back surface of the first prism member 310b as a mold will be described. FIG. 9 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a method for manufacturing the light collecting device 300.

ステップS10では、図8(a)に示したように、第2プリズム部材320aの本体部327の上面3271に紫外線硬化樹脂3281を塗布する。なお、紫外線硬化樹脂の塗布に先立って、第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271に対してシランカップリング処理をしておくことが望ましい。これは、紫外線硬化樹脂が硬化した際に確実に第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271に付着させるためである。   In step S10, as shown in FIG. 8A, an ultraviolet curable resin 3281 is applied to the upper surface 3271 of the main body 327 of the second prism member 320a. Prior to the application of the ultraviolet curable resin, it is desirable to perform a silane coupling process on the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a. This is because when the ultraviolet curable resin is cured, it is securely attached to the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a.

ステップS20では、図8(b)に例示するように、第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271に第1プリズム部材310bを押し付ける。これにより、第2プリズム部材320aの本体部327と第1プリズム部材310bの裏面との間に紫外線硬化樹脂が閉じ込められる(充填される)。なお、第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271に第1プリズム部材310bを押し付ける前に第1プリズム部材319bの裏面に離型剤を塗ることにしてもよい。離型剤には、例えばフッ素化合物などを用いればよい。離型剤は、第1プリズム部材310bの光学的な性能に影響を与えない程度に非常に薄く塗ることが好ましい。   In step S20, as illustrated in FIG. 8B, the first prism member 310b is pressed against the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a. Accordingly, the ultraviolet curable resin is confined (filled) between the main body portion 327 of the second prism member 320a and the back surface of the first prism member 310b. Note that a release agent may be applied to the back surface of the first prism member 319b before the first prism member 310b is pressed against the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a. For example, a fluorine compound may be used as the release agent. The release agent is preferably applied very thinly so as not to affect the optical performance of the first prism member 310b.

ステップS30では、紫外線硬化樹脂に紫外光を照射することにより紫外線硬化樹脂を硬化させ、凸部328を形成する。紫外光は第1プリズム部材310bの上面から照射してもよいし、第2プリズム部材320aの裏面(反射構造)側から照射してもよい。   In step S <b> 30, the ultraviolet curable resin is cured by irradiating the ultraviolet curable resin with ultraviolet light, and the convex portion 328 is formed. The ultraviolet light may be irradiated from the upper surface of the first prism member 310b, or may be irradiated from the back surface (reflection structure) side of the second prism member 320a.

ステップS40では、第2プリズム部材320aの上面3271の上に硬化した紫外線硬化樹脂層から第1プリズム部材310bを剥離する。図10は、剥離方法の一例を示す。図10に示すように、第1プリズム部材310bの一方の端面(z軸に直交する側面の一方)に空隙部3173を塞ぐ封止部材600を密接させ、反対側の端面に空隙部3173に窒素ガスを注入するための流路521を有する注入部材601を密接させる。その状態で、流路521を介して空隙部3173に所定圧力の窒素ガスを注入する。窒素ガスは、第1プリズム部材310bと第2プリズム部材320aとの隙間に浸入し、第1プリズム部材310bを第2プリズム部材320a上に形成された紫外線硬化樹脂層328から剥離する。   In step S40, the first prism member 310b is peeled from the ultraviolet curable resin layer cured on the upper surface 3271 of the second prism member 320a. FIG. 10 shows an example of a peeling method. As shown in FIG. 10, a sealing member 600 that closes the gap 3173 is brought into close contact with one end face (one of the side surfaces orthogonal to the z-axis) of the first prism member 310b, and nitrogen is added to the gap 3173 at the opposite end face. An injection member 601 having a flow path 521 for injecting gas is brought into close contact. In this state, nitrogen gas having a predetermined pressure is injected into the gap 3173 through the flow path 521. Nitrogen gas enters the gap between the first prism member 310b and the second prism member 320a, and peels the first prism member 310b from the ultraviolet curable resin layer 328 formed on the second prism member 320a.

ステップS50では、第1プリズム部材310bの第3面318と第2プリズム部材320aの反射面3212との間に適当な厚さの空気層が介在するように固定する。   In step S50, an air layer having an appropriate thickness is fixed between the third surface 318 of the first prism member 310b and the reflecting surface 3212 of the second prism member 320a.

ステップS60では、必要に応じて、第1プリズム部材310bの第2面317と、第2プリズム部材320aの導光面3211との隙間に接合部319を形成する。例えば、第1プリズム部材310bの第2面317と、第2プリズム部材320aの導光面3211との隙間に毛細管現象により紫外線硬化樹脂を浸透させて、ステップS30のように集光構造311に紫外光を照射する。   In step S60, a joint 319 is formed in the gap between the second surface 317 of the first prism member 310b and the light guide surface 3211 of the second prism member 320a as necessary. For example, an ultraviolet curable resin is infiltrated into the gap between the second surface 317 of the first prism member 310b and the light guide surface 3211 of the second prism member 320a by capillary action, and the ultraviolet rays are incident on the light collecting structure 311 as in step S30. Irradiate light.
