Fabrication of Aspheric Micro Lens Array by Slow Tool Servo

Article Preview

Abstract:

Owing to the fast development in photonic, telecommunication, and opto-electronic industries, the demand for various micro-lens arrays is rapidly growing. The slow tool servo technique was applied on an ultra-precision diamond turning machine in the present research in conjunction with the tool path generating algorithm for aspheric micro-lens array fabrication. An aspheric lens array of 100% filling factor was successfully produced and the form accuracy and surface roughness were better than 0.15μm and 3nm for all the obtained lenses.
