Abstract

In this study, the nonlinear effect of the shape of a membrane on optical parameters of the lens is discussed. To understand the effect of membranes with different shape under different liquid pressure, nonlinear finite element analysis is used to find the deformed shape of the membrane. After the deformed shape of the membrane is found, according to the shape of the membrane, the optical parameters (such as focal length, resolution and spot diagram) of the lens are studied. The parameters which considered in this study are the thickness of the membrane, the liquid pressure and the dimension of the lens. The results show that the bending of the membrane and the boundary conditions of the membrane are two important parameters to optical parameters of the lens.
