Abstract:
1. Arrayed imaging systems comprising: an array of detectors formed with a common base; and a first array of layered optical elements, each one of the layered optical elements being optically connected with a detector in the array of detectors to form one imaging system in the arrayed imaging systems, wherein the first array of layered optical elements is formed on the common base at least in part by sequential application of at least one fabrication master, each instance of the at least one fabrication master having a molding arrangement for defining the first array of layered optical elements on the common base, and wherein the molding arrangement is configured to align with the common base such that the first array of layered optical elements can be formed with less than two wavelengths of electromagnetic energy detectable by the detectors.
