- We report on our activities in the design, fabrication, characterization and system integration of planar micro-optical elements. Microfabrication technologies like photolithography, resist processing and reactive ion etching (RIE) are used to manufacture arrays of refractive and diffractive micro-optical elements. Microlens arrays, gratings, beam shapers and beam-splitters have been fabricated, tested and integrated in chemical analysis systems (μTAS), multiple channel imaging systems for photolithography and micro-optic spectrometers.
