Design and fabrication of a focus-tunable liquid cylindrical lens based on electrowetting.
Optics Express, 2022 In this study, a focus-tunable liquid cylindrical lens based on electrowetting was designed and fabricated. The cylindrical cavity usually used in common electrowetting zoom spherical lenses was replaced by a 20 mm × 10 mm × 8 mm cuboid cavity, in which ...
