摘要: We present a microlens array consisting of multiple liquid-based tunable-focus microlenses omnidirectionally fabricated on hemisphere, resulting in large field view. Polymer bridge structure is formed between to reduce the stress and deformation each lens structure. Each via water-oil interface at its aperture. Photopatterned thermo-responsive hydrogel actuators are used regulate curvature interface, thus tuning focal length, ranging from millimeters infinity.
