Abstract

The invention discloses an artificial compound eye lens with controllable curvature and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the technical field of optics microcomponent. The method adopts a polymer to manufacture a die of a lens to be copied, and a double-faced method is adopted to prepare the artificial compound eye lens with controllable curvature by a plane compound eye lens array. The artificial compound eye lens prepared with the method of the invention comprises a substrate and a plurality of small holes on the external surface of the substrate, wherein the small hole is round, hexagonal or square, and the substrate and the compound eye lens are both prepared from polydimethylsiloxane. The artificial compound eye lens of the invention is suitable for various using environments, the small volume ensures that the artificial compound eye lens can directly form an optical imaging system on an image sensor or can replace the original single-aperture lens and is favourable for improving dynamic capture capability and spatial information capture capability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lens in the technical field of micro-optical devices and a preparation method thereof, in particular to an artificial fly eye lens with controllable curvature and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development and mutual integration of optics, mechanics, electronics and other fields, opto-mechanical products are becoming more and more extensive, and the requirements for them are also getting higher and higher. However, the single-aperture optical system cannot meet the requirements of lightness and dexterity due to its volume and weight limitations. Artificial compound eye is an innovative, marginal and cross-cutting frontier research field integrating biology, optics, electronics, information processing, data fusion, automatic control and other disciplines. Compared with the plane artificial compound eye, the curved surface artificial compound eye has the advantages of high imagi...
