Patent ID: 8456743

Claim:
A method for producing a wafer-lens assembly, comprising: a first-stop forming step of forming a first stop member including a plurality of light transmitting sections on one of a front surface and a back surface of a first substrate being transparent; a lens-section forming step of forming a plurality of lens sections at respective positions corresponding to the plurality of light transmitting sections of the first stop member, on one of the front surface and the back surface of a transparent first substrate, where the first stop member has been formed on the first substrate; an adhesive applying step of applying an adhesive made of a photo-curable resin for joining the first substrate on which the plurality of lens sections are formed and a second substrate together; and a photo-curing step of hardening the adhesive which has been applied for joining the first substrate and the second substrate together, by irradiating the adhesive with light through the first substrate after the adhesive applying step, wherein the first stop member formed in the first-stop forming step is formed at a position where the first stop member does not prevent the light irradiated in the photo-curing step from reaching the adhesive.
