Abstract
Provided is an active lens structure. The active lens structure has a configuration in which a polarization switching section and a polarization dependent lens section are integrally formed, wherein a lattice structure is formed on an upper surface of a liquid crystal phase polymer layer of the polarization dependent lens section, and the liquid crystal phase polymer layer is aligned in a top-down manner and is used as a lower alignment film of a liquid crystal layer. Therefore, the polarization switching section of the active lens structure can be fabricated without any lower alignment film and any lower glass substrate, so that it is possible to minimize the total thickness and simplifying the manufacturing process.
