Patent ID: 8134782

Claim:
Method for the production of a transparent optical component having cells filled with optical material, said method comprising the following steps: /1/ obtaining a base optical component comprising a set of separate cells juxtaposed parallel to a surface of said component, each cell being open with an opening section parallel to the surface of the component; and /2/ introducing an optical material into the inside of each cell up to an average fill level (h 1 , . . . , h 5 ) determined for this cell, and measured along a direction perpendicular to the surface of the component, wherein random or pseudo-random variations of the average fill levels of the cells (h 1 . . . , h 5 ) are introduced voluntarily between at least some of the cells of the component, the variations of the fill levels (h 1 . . . , h 5 ) between the different cells of the component are determined so that phase shifts respectively for rays of a visible light (R 1 . . . , R 5 ) passing through the cells along said direction perpendicular to the surface of the component have a root mean square deviation of less than one quarter of a wavelength (λ) of said light, and said fill levels of the cells are selected so as to exhibit a discontinuity between at least two of the cells.
