The Precision Glass Molding Technique Applied to the Manufacturing of Micro-Optical Components

摘要

The precision glass-molding technique (PGMT) can be applied to mass-production of high quality optical elements. The PGMT has several key processes, such as fabrication of mold, generation of preform, optimum of molding parameters and hard coating. This article presents all the processes of PGMT in planar integrated optical elements of micro-projector system, micro-cylindrical lens array (μ-CLA) of line generator and microfluidics of biochip, respectively.
