Definitions
- the present invention relates to an optical component, which comprises a base body and an optically effective layer system, which lies on the base body with at least one layer system surface, according to the preamble of claims 1 and 8, respectively.
- the invention further relates to a method for its production according to the preamble of claim 20, a use of such a component or method according to claim 41 and an optical projection arrangement or a CCD camera with such a component according to claim 42 or 43.
- a cuboid optical component composed of individual prisms with dichroic layers is referred to as a "dichroic prism”.
- the present invention is based on problems which exist in known X-Cubes, such as are described for example in DE-40 33 842, or in their manufacture.
- the present invention which was found on such components due to the problem solution, can be applied to a large number of other optical components.
- an X-Cube 1 comprises four individual prisms 2a to 2d.
- these can be glass prisms made of BK7 glass. In cross section, they form isosceles triangles with a 90 ° angle, usually with tolerances of more than ⁇ 60
- an optically effective layer 5 is embedded, which largely reflects visible light in the blue area, but largely transmits visible light in the green area and in the red area.
- part of this blue reflector layer system is denoted by 5 ', the other by 5' '.
- Another optically effective layer system 7 is embedded between the two pairs of prisms 2a and 2d on the one hand, 2b and 2c on the other hand, which largely reflects visible light in the red area, but largely transmits it in the green area and in the blue area.
- the two legs of the red reflector layer system, as a color splitter system, are denoted by 7 1 and 7 1 '.
- the X-Cube therefore has three input channels for red, green and blue light from corresponding sources, for example se LCD controlled, and an output channel with the recombined input signals.
- sources for example se LCD controlled
- output channel with the recombined input signals.
- hypotenuse surfaces of the prisms 2 can and are usually coated with an anti-reflective layer system.
- the angle tolerances on the prisms 2 and in the compiled X-Cube 1 must be very small.
- the location 9 shown in broken lines in FIG. 1, where the four individual prisms 2 meet, is also located in the imaging beam path. Optical disturbances that are generated at this location are reflected in the picture in the output channel OUT as mentioned e.g. down as blurred. It is a requirement of such components and their manufacturing processes that disturbances arising in particular at this location 9 are minimized.
- GB-754 590 assumes that it is extremely difficult to precisely combine the individual prisms that have already been coated. Therefore, the procedure is as follows:
- Two 90 ° prisms are positioned crown to crown, each with one aligned catheter surface, in such a way that a gap is formed between the other two, opposite catheter surfaces.
- the gap is in the apex area using a soluble Mask closed.
- a coated cathetic surface and a cathetic surface of an uncoated prism are cemented, with the other cathetic surfaces being aligned on an optically flat block, wherein leakage of cement on the apex is prevented by covers which are removably cemented on the aligned surfaces.
- the aligned surface of the pair of prisms is coated after removing the cover and the putty that has escaped.
- each of the three side surfaces of the individual prisms 2 according to FIG. 1 must be used for glass processing are clamped or held, such as by plastering, cementing or starting. Thereafter, these surfaces must be cleaned for the coating of the individual prisms 2, then clamped in for the coating process and then unclamped again.
- DE-40 33 842 an average of two sides per individual prism are to be coated. This complex handling drives up the costs for the production of such X-Cubes sustainably.
- the X-Cube is created by cementing the individual prisms 2, the 90 ° edges of which were exposed to unprotected influences during the manufacturing process, faults result in Area 9 practically unavoidable due to breakouts on the 90 ° edges of the individual prisms 2.
- a radiation-optical component of the type mentioned at the outset this is achieved by continuously machining the surface of the base body.
- a structure such as was explained with reference to FIG. 2 is also avoided in this case: namely, with a view of FIG. 2, one of the layer systems, preferably 7, runs continuously; individual parts 7 ′, 7 ′′ no longer exist .

Surface is created, wherein the two surfaces mentioned on the at least two partial bodies are complementary to each other, that is, they fit together with narrow tolerances. Then at least one of these complementary surfaces is provided with an optically effective layer system, such as in particular with the red or blue reflector layer system, if the component to be produced is an X-Cube.
- the partial bodies mentioned are connected to one another along the said complementary surfaces with the layer system now in between, e.g. by cementing.
- a composite part body is thus formed.
- a surface common to the at least two partial bodies is mechanically processed, which lies at an angle to the complementary, interconnected surfaces, so that the complementary surfaces, along which the partial bodies are joined, meet the common, machined surface, together with the layer system in between .
- a further optically effective layer system is applied along this jointly machined surface.
- the component is composed of cuboidal partial bodies and only at last oblique-angled surfaces are formed into cuboid surfaces. This enables extremely precise positioning and surface processing steps, as there are only parallel surfaces on the bodies used until the end are .
