There is provided a technique that can suppress generation of flare and/or ghost by incident light reflecting off an inner wall of the spacer in a lens unit including a wafer-level lens and a spacer. A lens unit is formed by joining a lens portion including a lens and a spacer portion including a through hole through which light emitted from the lens passes, in which the spacer portion includes, in an end surface in which the lens portion is joined, an opening portion of the through hole and an inner wall portion, which is a wall surface of an outer edge of the opening portion, and the inner wall portion has a surface roughness greater than a surface roughness of an end surface of the spacer portion opposite to the end surface in which the lens portion is joined.

Lens unit, method for producing lens spacer, and method for producing lens unit

A method of producing a fluorescent nanodiamond exhibiting a zero phonon line (ZPL) for NVand/or NVon its fluorescence emission wavelength spectrum. The method includes a detonation step of exploding at least one type of explosive in an airtight container to obtain a nanodiamond raw material, a first annealing step of annealing, at a temperature from 1000° C. to 1600° C., the nanodiamond raw material or a nanodiamond which is obtained by removing sp2 carbon through strong acid treatment, ozone treatment, or gas-phase oxidation of the nanodiamond raw material, a vacancy forming step of creating vacancies on the nanodiamond by irradiating the nanodiamond with an ion beam or an electron beam after the first annealing step, and a second annealing step of annealing, at a temperature from 600° C. to 900° C., the nanodiamond containing vacancies to form Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) centers.
