Patent ID: 8120858

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a micro lens comprising: forming a first mold including a first lens profile shape; forming a second mold including a second lens profile shape; aligning the second mold on one surface of a lens substrate comprising a hollow hole; disposing a material at the hollow hole; aligning the first mold on another surface of the lens substrate which does not have the hollow hole; applying a pressure onto the disposed material to form a first profile and a second profile on the disposed material, in accordance with the first and the second lens profile shapes of the first and the second molds, respectively, so the disposed material becomes a molded lens element; and hardening the molded lens element to form the micro lens, wherein the first mold comprises a base substrate, a first mold substrate disposed on a surface of the base substrate adjacent to the lens substrate, and a second mold substrate disposed on a surface of the base substrate adjacent to the lens substrate.
