Flexible subtrate and circuit for liquid lens system

Abstract:

A flexible-substrate circuit for a liquid lens, a liquid lens system, and a method of making a liquid lens system are provided. The system can include a plate having an array of wells and a flexible-substrate circuit. The flexible-substrate circuit can have a longitudinal portion disposed on ridges of the plate, between wells of the plate, and a wing portions transverse to the longitudinal portion that extend into the wells, bonded to walls of the corresponding wells. The wing portion have a first electrode and a second electrode electrically connected to a controller via the longitudinal portion.
