Abstract
This paper describes the novel development of micro-scale structures and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) composed of polydimethylsiloxane, moldable polymer, whose optical properties have been tailored to suit different applications. By doping the polymer with a photo-absorbing material, its optical properties were altered depending on the application. The development of such doped polymer microstructures offers additional optical functionality to the present day MEMS devices.
