Arbitrary shaped microlens array laser sintered on glass sheets.
A new technique based on laser vitrification of cordierite ceramic powders is used to fabricate arbitrarily shaped microlens arrays on a glass substrate. Crack-free semispherical and quasi-spherical lenses with good optical and surface quality are demonstrated.
