Abstract
As new generations of diverse polymer materials become available [1], these are being used for an increasingly diverse variety of applications in optics, thereby allowing the realization of entirely new kinds of optical components and systems. Using manufacturing technologies based on MEMS and microsystems, flexible and stretchable materials may be used for the fabrication of components as diverse as deformable refractive microlenses, tunable eye-like apertures and printable, waveguide-based integrated optical circuits, in addition to acting as a substrate for hybridly integrated optoelectronic components [2].
