Research on Silicone Zoom Lens Group to Keep Image Surface Stable

Article Preview

Abstract:

In micro lens, the adaptive lenses are potential breakout in the future. The adaptive liquid lenses had been reported in several literatures. However, it’s regret for existing adaptive liquid lenses who can’t realize zoom synchronously keeping the image surface stable. For solving the problem a pair of all-silicone lenses called lens group was put forward. The lens group was firstly fabricated and assembled. The lens group was researched from theoretical calculation to find the synchronous relation between the front lens and the back lens. At last the lens group was seriously tested including its total focal lengths and image surface drifts. The theoretical researches and the testing result testified the all-silicone lens group was possible to facilitate the adaptive lens into applications.
