A micro-lens array with 50µm diameter lenses should settle in 1s, said Wu, and Fresnel lenses are though to be possible. If a polarisation-independent lens is required, the liquid crystal would have ...
The lens features a bilayer structure made of liquid crystal materials. Each layer responds differently to the applied electric field, splitting incoming light into oppositely polarized beams. Bifocal ...
If you’re cursed with bifocals or fear they’re in your future, you’ll be glad to know optical scientists at the University of Arizona have been working on liquid-crystal eyeglass lenses that ...
Researchers developed a bifocal lens based on two layers of liquid crystal (LC) structures. The intensities for the two focal lengths can be easily adjusted by applying external voltage.
A new fully-adjustable synthetic eye lens from the University of Leeds, and made from liquid crystal, is designed to surgically replace long-sighted lenses in the human eye.
Researchers develop liquid-crystal-based compound lenses that work like insect eyes. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2015 / 05 / 150518112024.htm ...
Scientists at the University of Pennsylvania have grown liquid crystal flowers, making it possible to create lenses as complex as the compound eye of a dragonfly. The technology could enable ...
This GIF from 32°N shows the liquid crystal lens being activated for up-close reading. GIF: 32°N And within that square is a narrow sweet spot that offers magnification, with everything else in ...
Liquid crystal (LC) lenses with electrically tunable focal length have attracted much attention for their potential in ophthalmic applications, three-dimensional displays, cell phones, virtual reality ...
Using liquid crystals as a medium for assembling structures, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania have managed to create a three-dimensional liquid crystal array in the shape of a flower.
