1. An optical component comprising:
- a first optical element including a first photosensitive glass having a first transformation temperature and a plurality of structures, the plurality of structures influencing light propagation; and
a second optical element having a second glass having a second transformation temperature, the first transformation temperature having a higher value than the second transformation temperature,the first photosensitive glass and the second glass being formed as a single composite element by heating the second optical element to a temperature above the second transformation temperature but below the first transformation temperature and to a temperature at which the second glass has a viscosity of less than 1010 dPa·
s and then pressing the first and second optical elements together with a pressure above atmospheric pressure while the second element has the viscosity of less than 1010 dPa·
