“…An improvement in spatial resolution can reduce pixel size and increase the scale of the array, but results in a lower signal and deterioration in the signal-to-noise ratio [88,89]. This problem can be eliminated when CCDs are integrated with MLAs to improve the filling factor [90]. An efficient onfocal-plane collection optical system can be created with thin-film binary-optics MLAs on the back surface of a hybrid detector array structure, as shown in Fig.…”

Microlenses (MLs) and microlens arrays (MLAs) are assuming an increasingly important role in optical devices. In response to this rapid evolution in technology, emphasis is being placed on research into new manufacturing methods for these devices as well as the characterization of their performance. This paper provides an overview of the fabrication of MLs and MLAs by electrical, mechanical, chemical, and optical methods. As each processing method has distinct advantages and limitations, the most significant characteristic parameters and the measurement of these parameters are discussed for each method. These parameters are then used as indices to evaluate and improve each of the processing methods. Some examples of practical applications of MLAs, especially for micromechanical optoelectronic devices, are also given. This paper aims to summarize the present development and the state of the art in processing technology of MLs and MLAs.
