Definitions
- the present invention relates to fluorophosphate glass, near-infrared cut filters, and imaging devices, and in particular to fluorophosphate glass, near-infrared cut filters, and imaging devices that are used in color correction filters for solid-state imaging devices such as digital still cameras and color video cameras, and that have excellent light transmittance in the visible range and excellent light absorption in the near-infrared range.
- Solid-state imaging elements such as CCD and CMOS used in digital still cameras have spectral sensitivity that ranges from the visible region to the near-infrared region around 1200 nm. As solid-state imaging elements cannot achieve good color reproduction as is, the visibility of the solid-state imaging elements is corrected using near-infrared cut filter glass to which a specific substance that absorbs infrared light has been added.
- This near-infrared cut filter glass selectively absorbs wavelengths in the near-infrared range and has high weather resistance.
- Optical glass made by adding Cu to fluorophosphate glass has been developed and is used. The compositions of these glasses are disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3.
- the near-infrared cut filter is made thinner, the amount of light absorbed by Cu2 + contained in the glass decreases, which weakens the absorption of light with wavelengths in the near-infrared region. Also, when the amount of Cu is increased to increase the amount of light absorbed by Cu2+ , the content of Cu + that absorbs light with wavelengths in the visible light region increases, which reduces the transmittance of light in the visible region.
- the present invention was made based on this background, and aims to provide fluorophosphate glass, a near-infrared cut filter, and an imaging device that can maintain a high transmittance of light in the visible range while keeping the transmittance of light in the near-infrared range low.
- the present invention is as follows.
- the present invention provides fluorophosphate glass, a near-infrared cut filter, and an imaging device that can maintain a high transmittance of light in the visible range while keeping the transmittance of light in the near-infrared range low.
- FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of a near-infrared cut filter according to one embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a modified example of the near-infrared cut filter according to one embodiment of the present invention.

- a fluorophosphates glass according to an embodiment of the present invention (hereinafter also referred to as the fluorophosphates glass of the present embodiment, or simply as fluorophosphates glass or glass) is characterized in that it contains P, Cu, Mo, and F, and that the content ratio of Mo 6+ to Cu 2+ (Mo 6+ /Cu 2+ ) is 0.01 to 0.39 on a mass basis.
- Cu is contained in glass in the form of Cu 2+ or Cu + , and Cu 2+ is a component that absorbs light with wavelengths in the near-infrared region, so the transmittance of light in the near-infrared region is suppressed to be low, but Cu + is a component that absorbs light with wavelengths in the visible region, so the transmittance of light in the visible region is low.
- Mo exists in glass as Mo 6+ (hexavalent).
- Mo 5+ has the characteristic of absorbing light with a wavelength of about 400 nm, and therefore the transmittance of light with a wavelength of about 400 nm did not increase.
- fluorophosphate glass containing Cu and Mo was not known, and the above is considered to be a new finding discovered by the present inventors.
- Mo content increases, the influence of absorption of light with wavelengths in the visible light range by Mo 5+ increases, and the transmittance in the visible range decreases, so it is considered important to set the content ratio of Cu to Mo within a specific range.
- the present invention should not be construed as being limited to the above-mentioned mechanism of action.
