Abstract

This paper reports a liquid optical analogical gravitational lensing made on a chip. It concludes a mixing liquid stream as a medium and a PDMS chip as a mixing cell. Comparing to other optical analogical gravitational lensing, the liquid lens uses mixed liquid to realize the non-uniform change of the medium. It is simple to manufacture, low cost, small size and easy to preserve. Changing the velocity and ratio of liquid stream will adjust the refractive index (RI) profile of the entire waveguide. It helps to visually show the effects of gravitational field on light.
