Abstract
To make it possible to restrain generation of chipping or cracking in a substrate of a laminated lens structure. A laminated lens structure includes substrates with lens which each have a lens disposed inside a through-hole formed in the substrate and which are laminated on one another by direct bonding, in which the substrates are each provided in the vicinity of the outer circumference thereof with through grooves penetrating the substrate. The present technology is applicable, for example, to a compound eye camera module.
Claims21
A stacked lens substrate comprising:
- a first lens substrate including a first lens in a first through-hole;
- a second lens substrate including a second lens in a second through-hole, wherein the second lens substrate is stacked on the first lens substrate;
- and
