| description | A tunable acoustic gradient (TAG) lens is provided including a lens casing, a refractive fluid, a controllable acoustic wave generating element (e.g., a piezoelectric vibrator) and an external reservoir configuration. An operational volume of the refractive fluid is contained in a casing cavity of the lens casing. The external reservoir configuration includes a deformable external fluid reservoir that contains a reserve volume of the refractive fluid and that is connected to the casing cavity by a flow channel. The flow channel enables the refractive fluid to flow back and forth between the casing cavity and the deformable external fluid reservoir in accordance with expansion and contraction of the refractive fluid (e.g., due to changes in temperature). The lens casing, deformable external fluid reservoir and flow channel are configured as a sealed system, with no intentional gas volume included in the sealed system. |
