Optical lens and method of manufacturing the same
In an optical lens including a lens portion having a convex or concave lens surface on each side, each lens surface of the lens portion has a convex portion of a small projection centered on the optical axis thereof, and the convex portion has the height which is approximately less than four times the used wavelength so as not to have an effect on an optical characteristic of the lens portion.
1. An optical lens comprising:
a lens portion having a lens surface on a first and second side;
a first projection that is convex with respect to the first side lens surface and centered on the optical axis of the first side lens surface, the first projection being the only projection on the first side; and
a second projection that is convex with respect to the second side lens surface and centered on the optical axis of the second side lens surface, the second projection being the only projection on the second side,
wherein the first and second projections have a height that is approximately less than four times the used wavelength so as not to have an effect on an optical characteristic of the lens portion,
wherein the first and second projections are formed in a cross shape and the intersection of the cross shape is arranged on the optical axis of the lens surface.
2. The optical lens according to claim 1 , wherein the cross shape includes a first elongated projection that crosses a second elongated projection.
