Abstract
A method of fixing an optical component includes the steps of scoring a surface of a support, bringing an optical component into close contact with the scored surface of the support, and flowing a fluid adhesive along kerfs produced by the scoring. An optical component support has a surface provided with scoring kerts for fixing the optical component. The method and support enable fixing of an optical component by a thin, uniform adhesive layer, without fine polishing of the optical component and the surface of the support.
