Abstract
For the design and optimization of the fabrication condition of distributed-index planar microlenses, it is necessary to evaluate the N.A., focal length, focused spot, and aberration of a fabricated lens. In this paper, a ray tracing method is improved for this purpose, and properties of planar microlenses are evaluated. An ion concentration matrix is proposed to simplify lens design.
