摘要
We propose an adjustable-focus lens composed of a liquid crystal and a Fresnel lens fabricated froma liquid-crystalline polymer. Using vertically aligned liquid-crystalline polymers and fabricating Fresnel lensesby the imprinting method, we achieved uniform, vertically aligned liquid crystals on a Fresnel lens. The resultsdemonstrate that a high-quality, adjustable-focus liquid-crystal lens that does not exhibit light scattering causedby the surface structure of the Fresnel lens can be realized
