Method of manufacturing a mold for use in the manufacture of an optical element comprising optical sub-elements mutually arranged in a pattern, and device for implementing such a method

A mold of ductile metal has a shape comprising consecutive sub-shapes corresponding to respective optical sub-elements having substantially identical shapes arranged in a pattern. The mold is shaped by means of a die having a die surface corresponding to the sub-shape, which sub-shape is imprinted i...

Zusammenfassung:A mold of ductile metal has a shape comprising consecutive sub-shapes corresponding to respective optical sub-elements having substantially identical shapes arranged in a pattern. The mold is shaped by means of a die having a die surface corresponding to the sub-shape, which sub-shape is imprinted in the ductile metal with a predetermined force one at a time in consecutive positions in accordance with the pattern, each position corresponding to a single optical sub-element.
