Adaptive liquid lens actuated by liquid crystal pistons

open access: yesOptics Express, 2012
An adaptive liquid lens actuated by liquid crystal (LC) pistons is demonstrated. It adopts fluid pressure introduced by the reciprocating movement of LC droplets to regulate the liquid-air interface which, in turn, changes the optical power of the resultant liquid lens.
