ABSTRACT:
Accurate lens substrates on a waferscale are obtained by forming a polymer material on a lens surface formed on a lens wafer. The substrate may also be thinned by the glass lens surface forming process at the portion of the lens. The polymer material may have the same or different optical properties (refractive index and dispersion) as the lens wafer.
