Abstract

A double-sided microlens array and method has a plurality of first microlenses on a first surface opposite a plurality of second microlenses on a second surface of a transparent medium. At least two optical features are arranged on either of the first or second surfaces to form fiducial marks on the opposing surface in the transparent medium. The fiducial marks enable precise alignment of the microlenses in the first and second plurality of microlens arrays.
