OPTICAL ELEMENT HAVING AT LEAST ONE EMBEDDED REFLECTOR
摘要
An optical element (50; 72a-d; 80; 90), which has a first optical member (1; 51; 86; 93; 101) with at least one indentation (2a-f; 20; 25; 30; 35; 40; 57a-c; 100) at a first surface (3) thereof, and a second optical member (5; 52; 87a-c; 94; 104) attached to the first surface (3) of the first optical member (1; 51; 86; 93; 101), this second optical member (5; 52; 87a-c; 94; 104) essentially conforming to the at least one indentation (2a-f; 20; 25; 30; 35; 40; 57a-c; 100) in the first optical member. The optical element further comprises at least one reflector (9-10; 55a-c; 85a-c; 92a-e) at an interface between the first and second optical members, the at least one reflector being located at the at least one indentation. The reflector (9-10; 55a-c; 85a-c; 92a-e) is formed by an interface between a cavity (8) formed between the first and second optical members and one of the first and second optical members.
