Abstract
An example system includes a first steering layer interposed between an electromagnetic (EM) source and an emission lens. The first steering layer includes a triplet lens having a Plano-convex lens, a Plano-concave lens, and an electro-optical (EO) crystal positioned between the lenses. The EO crystal includes transparent electrodes on each side, coupled to the respective lenslet and/or the EO crystal. The system includes the EM source providing an incident EM beam on the first steering layer, and the emission lens emitting a steered EM beam to a target location.
