Method for manufacturing an apparatus using electro-optical modulating material
First Claim
1. A method for manufacturing an apparatus using an electro-optical modulating material, comprising the steps of:
- (a) forming a cell by bonding together a first substrate and a second substrate by a sealing member with a gap yet to be filled with said electro-optical modulating material provided between said first and said second substrate, wherein said first substrate includes at least a first electrode and said second substrate includes at least a second electrode and an optically reflective member having a light-transmitting portion;
(b) forming a photocuring resin layer on a surface of said second substrate of said cell opposite from said gap; and
(c) irradiating said photocuring resin layer with light projected from said first substrate and passed through said gap, said light-transmitting portion, and said second substrate, and thereby forming a microlens for converging light, which is directed into said gap passing through said second substrate, onto said light-transmitting portion.

Abstract
A method for manufacturing an apparatus using an electro-optical modulating material such as a liquid crystal, comprising the steps of: (a) forming a cell by bonding together a first substrate (10) and a second substrate (20) by a sealing member (17) with a gap (15) yet to be filled with the electro-optical modulating material provided between the first and the second substrate, wherein the first substrate (10) includes at least a first electrode (11) and the second substrate (20) includes at least a second electrode (24) and an optically reflective member (21) having a light-transmitting portion (22); (b) forming a photocuring resin layer (30a) on a surface of the second substrate (20) of the cell opposite from the gap (15); and (c) irradiating the photocuring resin layer (30a) with light projected from below the first substrate (10) and passed through the gap (15), the light-transmitting portion (22), and the second substrate (20), and thereby forming a microlens for converging light, directed into the second substrate (20) toward the gap (15), onto the light-transmitting portion.
