Abstract
CALIXTO, S. and SANCHEZ-MARIN, F.J.. Spherical fused silica microlenses fabricated by the melting method. Rev. mex. fis. [online]. 2003, vol.49, n.5, pp.421-424. ISSN 0035-001X.
Fiber ends are irradiated by a focused CO2 beam causing material to melt. Surface tension shapes the melted material into a spherical microlens that remains joined to the fiber. Such lenses can be used to form images or to focus light. Back focal distances and other parameters of the lenses have been measured.
Keywords : Microlenses.
