A method for producing an aspherical structure according to the invention includes the steps of: forming a layer on a surface of a substrate so that the layer exhibits an etching rate distribution in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the substrate; forming a mask having a predetermined opening shape on the surface of the layer; and etching the layer to thereby form at least one aspherical concave portion. When each concave portion is used as a molding tool so that a resin with which the concave portion is filled is solidified and removed from the concave portions an aspherical lens array can be formed accurately.

A lens-attached light-emitting element having an improved optical availability efficiency includes a composite lens provided on an approximately U-shaped light-emitting area of the light emitting element array. Four spherical lenses are arranged in such a manner that each is centered in the neighborhood the an end of a respective one of three segments of a U-shaped polygonal line corresponding to positions where light emitted by the U-shaped light-emitting area is a maximum Three cylindrical lens are arranged between two of the spherical lens, respectively, each cylindrical lens having an axis parallel with each segment. These four spherical lenses and three cylindrical lenses together constitute the composite lens. The light-emitting element further comprises an antireflection film covering the light-emitting area, and the composite lens is formed on the surface of the antireflection film.

摘要:
The conventional lens array of an erecting unit magnification system is composed of an inside lens of spherical shape and an outside lens of spherical or aspherical shape, and has a problem to be improved for the resulting MTF performance. A lens array of an erecting unit magnification system is provided by stacking a first and a second planar-shaped lens array plates. Each of the first and second planar-shaped lens array plates includes a plurality of outside lenses (L1 and L4), which are regularly arranged on one side thereof, and a plurality of inside lenses (L2 and L3), which are regularly arranged on the other side thereof. Especially, the outside lenses (L1 and L4) and the inside lenses (L2 and L3) are formed based on the defining method according to the present invention.
