Abstract:
The present invention involves forming layers of conductive material (12, 16; 17, 18) and dielectric material (14) or material with varying conductivity and indexes of refraction to form various electronic and optical devices.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an ophthalmic lens comprising introducing a volume of photocurable lens material into a container, wherein said container comprises a mold surface. The method further comprises creating a digital 3-D mathematical model defining corrective needs of an eye and projecting programmed patterns of UV light through said mold via a pattern generator, wherein said programmed patterns of UV light cure said photocurable lens material into a lens shape defined by said mold surface and said digital model.

Abstract:
Optical waveguide composite materials and integrated optical subsystems with low loss connection to optical fibers, are disclosed. The waveguide material has a varying thickness and/or refractive index from one portion (816) to another (820) and can be varied in all three directions. Methods of producing the composite materials and waveguides are also disclosed.
