  • Publication number: 20220308304
    Abstract: In this invention, an imaging module and a method for fabricating it are provided. By designing first and second electrodes, a movable part of the second electrode is connected to the flexible part. Upon a voltage being applied to the first and second electrodes, the second electrode moves toward the first electrode, resulting in a stretch and hence a shape change of a flexible part. As a result, the imaging module undergoes a change in terms of focal length, amount of admitted light and/or admissible range of angle of incident light. In particular, a motion controller incorporating the first and second electrodes can be easily fabricated by semiconductor processes to a very small size, making the imaging module very suitable for use in electronic terminals such as mobile phones with confined enclosure spaces.
