The present invention mainly relates to the structure and manufacturing
process of a new f.theta. lens in LSU, which is plastic lens produced
through injection molding. Its optical surface is made of multi-sections,
and the optical surface of each section, according to the angles formed
between the sections and the laser beams ripping-in, are designed with a
specified coefficient set. Therefore, this new f.theta. lens, with high
tolerance in assembling and high performance in scanning, avoids the
demerit of conventional f.theta. lens, each optical surface of which has
only one coefficient set. According to the curve fall formed at the
border of every two optical surfaces, we find out a way to ascertain the
best continuing surface profile, which is curve fitting simulation and
optical simulation. At last, we produce a mold for the f.theta. lens with
multi-sections optical surface by using super-precise machine process to
control the mold processing and use the mold for injection molding, and
then manufacture lots of f.theta. lens with multi-sections optical
surface.
