    摘要: Liquid crystal optoelectronic devices are produced by fabricating a wafer-level component structure and affixing a plurality of discrete components to a surface structure prior to singulating the individual devices therefrom. After singulation, the individual devices include a portion of the wafer-level fabricated structure and at least of the discrete components. The wafer-level structure may include a liquid crystal and controlling electrodes, and the discrete components may include fixed lenses or image sensors. The discrete components may be located on either or both of two sides of the wafer-level structure. Multiple liquid crystal layers may be used to reduce nonuniformities in the interaction with light from different angles, and to control light of different polarizations. The liquid crystal devices may function as optoelectronic devices such as tunable lenses, shutters or diaphragms.

    摘要: An optical switch includes a core and a fluid reservoir. The core includes a base, a matrix controller substrate, and a planar lightwave circuit. The planar lightwave circuit has a plurality of waveguides and a plurality of trenches. Each trench is located at an intersection of two waveguides. The fluid reservoir supplies a fluid to the plurality of trenches of the core. The optical switch further includes a getter for removing atmospheric gases from the fluid. The getter may be a porous silica getter, a non-evaporable getter, or an evaporable getter. By removing atmospheric gases from the fluid, the getter improves the capacity and operation of the optical switch. The optical switch may further include a membrane to separate the getter in a getter chamber from the fluid in a fluid chamber.

The optical device has an electrode arrangement associated with a liquid crystal cell and includes a hole patterned electrode, wherein control of the liquid crystal cell depends on electrical characteristics of liquid crystal optical device layers. The optical device further has a circuit for measuring said electrical characteristics of the liquid crystal optical device layers, and a drive signal circuit having at least one parameter adjusted as a function of the measured electrical characteristics. The drive signal circuit generates a control signal for the electrode arrangement.
