Abstract

See full text

A method of manufacturing a lens array according to the invention is presented wherein a first array of first lens-base elements is formed on a substrate with spacing therebetween. The first lens-base elements are heated so that the first lens-base elements melt to form first lenses having round surfaces. A separation layer is formed to cover the first lenses and the substrate. A second array of second lens-base elements is formed, the second lens-base elements being placed on a region where the first lenses are not formed so as to partly overlap with the first lenses. The second lens-base elements are also heated so that the second lens-base elements melt to form second lenses having round surfaces. The lens array comprises the substrate and the first and second lenses.
