Brittlestar-inspired microlens arrays made of calcite single crystals.
???displayArticle.abstract???
Unique concave microlens arrays (MLAs) made of calcite single crystals with tunable crystal orientations can be readily fabricated by template-assisted epitaxial growth in solution without additives under ambient conditions. While the non-birefringent calcite (001) MLA showed excellent imaging performance like brittlestar''s microlens arrays, the birefringent calcite (104) MLA exhibited remarkable polarization-dependent optical properties.
