A liquid crystal (LC) lens with highly-resistive films is realized by preparing a poly (3,4 - ethylene dioxythiophene) / polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT/PSS) and resin. The sheet-resistivity of the PEDOT / PSS was about 10^7Ω/□. The interference fringe images of the LC lens can be observed by a polarizing microscope under cross polarizers. The optical phase profile of the convex and concave lens properties can be derived by measuring the interference fringes. The almost parabolic distribution of the phase profile can be attained by applying voltages to two electrodes of the LC lens.
