Abstract:
A rapid and single-step method for the fabrication of a zinc selenide (ZnSe) concave microlens array through the high-speed line-scanning of a femtosecond laser pulse is presented. Approximately 1.1 million microlenses, with minimized volume and high transparency at wavelengths between approximately 0.76-20 μm were fabricated within 36 min. More importantly, the size of the microlenses can be controlled by adjusting the laser power. Their high-quality infrared optical performance was also demonstrated. This method holds great promise for the development of ZnSe-based micro-optical devices.
