Using AZ 40XT-11D resist can do this job. It's a useful resist and can
be reflowed at about 130C.

Reflow method can be very helpful for creating microlenses. See =
"Variable
Focusing Microlens Chip for Potential Sensing Applications" from IEEE
Sensors Journal VOL. 7, NO. 1, JANUARY 2007. The array has been made. =
The
only problem I see is how small lens it can create. Less than 100 um
probably is a problem.

UV curable adhesive is more difficult to handle than photoresist.

I am glad to see more application from it.

Cheers,
Josh
