摘要：The electrowetting lenses has attracted researchers in many fields, such as biology, beam shaping, and drug delivery. Previous research on electrowetting lens has focused on neither expanding the dynamic focal length range nor reducing the wavefront aberration. However, the properties with large numerical aperture and low aberration are also essential properties of lenses, and can promote their application. Therefore, we calculated the meniscus of the lens with different optical apertures, and subsequently, analyzed the relations among the focal length, wavefront aberration, and optical aperture. To expand the focal length range, we designed an electrowetting-based triple-liquid lens with a root-mean-square wavefront aberration error of less than 1/4 waves.
