- the molding surface 32 is for molding the optical functional surface 11, and includes an irregular molding surface portion 34 for molding the irregular surface portion 12 and a smooth molding surface portion 33 for molding the smooth surface portion 13.
- the upper die 35 is constituted by a columnar body having a molding surface 36 facing the lower die 31 as a top surface. Then, using the lower mold 31 and the upper mold 35, the glass preform 30 covered with the ball and the first optical part 10 is heated and pressed (heat pressed).
- a glass preform 30 is disposed between the lower mold 31 and the upper mold 35.
- the glass preform 30 is heated to near its soft temperature.
- the soft glass preform 30 is softened by displacing the upper mold 35 relative to the lower mold 31 in the direction of the lower mold 31 to form the softened glass preform 30 into the molding surface 32 of the lower mold 31 and the molding surface 36 of the upper mold 35.

- the first optical unit 10 is released from the lower mold 31 and the upper mold 35.
- FIG. 3C is a cross-sectional view of the obtained first optical unit 10.
- thermosetting resin 38 is pressed to a predetermined position with the optical functional surface 11 of the first optical unit 10 molded as described above, and heat is applied to the thermosetting resin 38 in that state. By doing so, the thermosetting resin 38 is cured. In this step, since the thermosetting resin 38 in a soft state before applying heat is very soft compared to the first optical unit 10, the thermosetting resin 38 is attached to the first optical unit 10. Even if the optical function surface 11 is pressed, the shape of the optical function surface 11 does not substantially change.
- thermosetting resin 38 flows in accordance with the shape of the optical functional surface 11 and enters the concave portion of the concave and convex surface portion 12, so that the shape of the optical functional surface 11 is suitably transferred.
- the composite optical element 1 including the first optical unit 10 and the second optical unit 20 joined to the first optical unit 10 on the optical function surface 11 can be obtained.
- the second optical unit is formed on the first optical unit 10.

If the position in the direction is farther from the center force of the first optical unit than the position in the normal direction of the end of the smooth surface on the concave and convex surface side, the first optical unit 60 is shown in FIG.
- the glass preform is pressed by a lower mold 61 having a molding surface 62 including a surface portion 63 and a concave and convex molding surface portion 64 recessed from the smooth molding surface portion 63, and an upper die 65 disposed opposite to the lower die 61. It is produced by molding.
- the concavo-convex molding surface portion 64 is recessed from the slip-molding surface portion 63, the slip-molding surface portion 63 comes into contact with the glass preform before the concavo-convex molding surface portion 64, and the concavo-convex molding surface portion 64 is in contact with the glass preform.
- a gap 64a is formed between the concave / convex molding surface portion 64 of the lower mold 61 and the molded first optical portion 60. That is, the shape of the concave / convex molding surface portion 64 is not sufficiently transferred, and the shape accuracy of the first optical portion 60 to be molded is lowered. As a result, it becomes difficult to obtain a composite optical element with high shape accuracy.
- the uneven surface portion 12 of the optical function surface 11 is recessed (thin) than the smooth surface portion 13.
- the position P2 in the normal N direction of the lowest point of the concave portion of the concave-convex surface portion 12 is the first optical portion than the position P1 in the normal N direction of the convex-concave surface portion 12 side of the smooth surface portion 13 Located near the center of 10. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 3, in the molding surface 32 corresponding to the shape of the optical function surface 11, conversely, the uneven molding surface portion 34 protrudes from the slip molding surface portion 33.
- the concavo-convex molded surface portion 34 comes into contact with the glass preform 30 before the slip-molded surface portion 33. Accordingly, the pressure applied to the glass preform 30 by the concave / convex forming surface portion 34 is increased, and the pressing amount of the concave / convex forming surface portion 34 against the glass preform 30 is also increased. As a result, since the shape of the concavo-convex molding surface portion 34 is transferred to the glass preform 30 with a relatively high shape accuracy, the first optical portion 10 with a high shape accuracy is obtained, and thus the composite optical element 1 with a high shape accuracy is obtained. Can be obtained.
- the shape accuracy of the obtained first optical part 10 tends to improve as the pressure applied to the glass preform 30 by the concavo-convex molding surface part 34 and the pressing amount of the concavo-convex molding surface part 34 against the glass preform 30 increase.
- the optical functional surface 11 can be configured so that the pressure applied to the glass preform 30 by the concave / convex molding surface portion 34 is larger and the pressing amount of the concave / convex molding surface portion 34 against the glass preform 30 is larger. preferable.
- the optical function surface 11 is configured so that the optical functional surface 11 is configured so that the virtual aspheric surface BM including the lowest point of each concave portion of the uneven surface portion 12 is located closer to the center of the first optical portion 10 than the smooth surface portion 13. It is preferable to do.
- the optical functional surface 11 is configured so that the position P3 in the normal N direction of the convex vertex of the uneven surface portion 12 is located closer to the center of the first optical portion 10 than the position P1.
- Each convex vertex of the concavo-convex surface portion 12 is preferably located closer to the center of the first optical portion 10 than the virtual aspheric surface including P1 and having the same aspheric surface coefficient as the virtual aspheric surface BM. It is still preferred to configure the optical function surface 11 as U.
- the thermosetting resin 38 contracts.
- the amount of shrinkage of the thermosetting resin 38 varies depending on the thickness of the molded thermosetting resin 38 (that is, the thickness of the second optical unit 20). Specifically, the amount of shrinkage of the thick portion of the thermosetting resin 38 is relatively large, and the amount of shrinkage of the thin portion is relatively small. Therefore, the portion of the second optical unit 20 located on the uneven surface portion 12 has a different amount of contraction between the portion of the uneven surface portion 12 located on the concave portion and the portion located on the convex portion. There is a risk that the optical functional surface 22 of the second optical unit 20 will swell corresponding to the shape of the concavo-convex surface portion 12.
- the thickness of the portion located on the uneven surface portion 12 of the second optical unit 20 is the smooth surface portion. 13 Thicker compared to the thickness of the part located above. For this reason, the undulation of the optical function surface 22 as described above is effectively suppressed.
- the portion of the second optical portion 20 located above the uneven surface portion 12 when the thickness is increased, the thickness of the portion located on the smooth surface portion 13 is further increased.
- the portion located on the smooth surface portion 13 of the second optical portion 20 is kept on the uneven surface portion 12 of the second optical portion 20 while being kept relatively thin.
- the located part can be made relatively thick. Therefore, the amount of the thermosetting resin 38 used to form the second optical unit 20 can be suppressed, and an inexpensive composite optical element 1 can be realized. Can do.
- the first optical unit 10 has substantially a glass force.
- the second optical unit 20 has substantially a resin (for example, a thermoplastic resin, an energy-curing resin)
- the glass first molded into a desired shape as described above.
- the composite optical element 1 can be obtained easily and with high shape accuracy by pressing and curing the resin in the soft state using the optical part 10 as a mold and curing it.
- an energy curable resin such as an ultraviolet curable resin or an electron beam curable resin is used as the material of the second optical unit 20, it can be cured in a short period of time, so that productivity can be improved. it can.
- thermosetting resin when used as the material of the second optical unit 20, the composite optical element is easily and inexpensively heated by heating without requiring a large device that irradiates ultraviolet rays or electron beams. You can get one.
- energy-curing resin means a resin that is cured by applying predetermined energy (heat, ultraviolet rays, electron beam (EB), etc.).
- the energy curable resin include a thermosetting resin, an ultraviolet curable resin, an electron beam (EB) curable resin, and the like.
- the case where the first optical unit 10 is substantially made of glass has been described as an example, but the same applies to the case where the first optical unit 10 is substantially made of resin. is there. That is, by adopting a configuration in which the concave / convex surface portion 12 of the optical functional surface 11 is recessed (thin) than the smooth surface portion 13, the transferability of the concave / convex molding surface portion 34 can be improved, and the first optical with high shape accuracy is achieved. Part 10 and composite optical element 1 can be obtained. Further, the undulation of the optical function surface 22 of the second optical unit 20 can be suppressed.

- the resin 138 flows in accordance with the shape of the optical functional surface 111 and enters the concave portion of the concave and convex surface portion 112, so that the shape of the optical functional surface 111 is suitably transferred. In such a manner, a composite optical element 101 including the first optical unit 110 and the second optical unit 120 that is bonded to the first optical unit 110 on the optical functional surface 111 can be obtained. .
