In this paper, we propose a fast‐response and polarization‐independent adapptive microlens array using a polymer‐stabilized blue phase liquid crystal. Using a curved top electrode and planar bottom electrode, gradient electric fields are generated and lens‐like phase profile obtained. By optimization, an ideal parabolic phase profile for minimizing image aberrations is obtained.
