According to the present embodiment, the same effect as in Embodiment 2 can be obtained, and since the heat-resistant coating has two layers, the heat-resistant coating does not become too thick and the film thickness can be easily set. (Embodiment 6) The heat-resistant coating in the present embodiment is
Al 2 O 3 is formed on the heat resistant coating in the fifth embodiment.
The third embodiment is the same as the fifth embodiment except that it is coated and is composed of three layers.

According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the constituent components of the conveying member do not sublime at the forming temperature of the optical material to be conveyed, the sublimate does not adhere to the surface of the formed optical element. Therefore, the surface of the optical element is not roughened or clouded. Further, according to the invention of claim 2, by applying a heat resistant coating on the surface of the carrying member according to claim 1, the progress of the high temperature oxidation of the carrying member as a whole is minimized, and unnecessary consumption of the constituent materials is suppressed. Can be prevented and the life of the transport member can be extended.
