Multi-electrode Technology
Corning® Varioptic® Multi-electrode Lenses exploit the same electrowetting principle as single-electrode lenses, but with an enhanced design that integrates multiple electrodes. This architecture enables more precise control of the liquid interface, allowing for advanced optical functionalities such as beam steering, astigmatism correction, or dynamic aberration compensation.
These lenses can be reconfigured on demand by applying different voltages to each electrode, enabling complex and adaptive optical behaviors in real time.
Advantages
The multi-electrode design brings additional benefits compared to classical A-series lenses:
- Advanced optical shaping and astigmatism correction
- Beam steering capabilities without mechanical movement
- Dynamic aberration correction for improved image quality
- Control of the optical axis
- No moving parts, ensuring high reliability and robustness
- Compact and lightweight design, ideal for embedded systems
- Low power consumption and silent operation
