Abstract
Micro-optical functional structures and products, such as edge-lit light guides, light pipes, lens arrays, retroreflectors, and diffusers are widely used in automotive lighting, sunlight advanced control, Fresnel optics, solid state lighting, and liquid crystal displays (LCDs). These micro-optical structures as well as the associated mass-production tooling require advanced microfabrication technologies in order to meet stringent requirements in accuracy, precision and surface quality. In this regard, surface structuring by laser remelting (SSLRM) process constitutes one of novel technologies capable to offer advanced capabilities combined with process simplicity and efficiency.
