Abstract

See full text

A system having a micro lens array is provided. In some embodiments, the system includes a plurality of individual adaptive photo thermal lenses that have at least one cell, each cell provided with at least one photo absorbing particle; and a thermo-optical material in thermal contact with the cells; and at least one controllable light source for illuminating the photo absorbing particles, the light source having at least one spectral component which can be absorbed by the photo-absorbing particles, each cell being defined by the optical interaction area between the at least one photo absorbing particle and the at least one controllable light source, wherein the at least one controllable light source is controllable in one or more of wavelength, power, and polarisation, to locally modify the focal lengths of the individual adaptive photo thermal lenses having the cells.
