First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for producing an optical coupling element made of elastomer, the method comprising:
- filling a free-flowing elastomer formulation or its constituents into a mold so as to produce a flat sheet whose thickness is adapted to a thickness of the optical coupling element that is to be produced,curing the elastomer formulation or its constituents to form an inherently stable elastomer, andcutting individual optical coupling elements out of the flat sheet.

Abstract
A method for producing an optical coupling element made of elastomer includes filling a free-flowing elastomer formulation or its constituents into a mold so as to produce a flat sheet whose thickness is adapted to a thickness of the optical coupling element that is to be produced. The elastomer formulation or its constituents is cured to form an inherently stable elastomer. Individual optical coupling elements are cut out of the flat sheet.
