Abstract

Using a drop-on-demand print head allows for PC-controlled production of various types of microlenses as well as lens arrays. The possibility to place microlenses on arbitrarily shaped substrates allows for novel optical elements like beam splitters or non-planar scattering discs. Another interesting possibility opened by pre-shaped substrates is the production of concave lenses, which are key elements for aberration correction in micro-optical systems.
