Calibration of Deformable Mirrors for Open-Loop Control
Deformable mirrors enable the control of wave fronts for the compensation of aberrations in optical systems and/or for beam scanning. Manufacturers of deformable mirrors typically provide calibration data that encode for the fabrication tolerances among ...

Influence functions for a hysteretic deformable mirror with a high-density 2D array of actuators. [PDF]
We present modeling and analysis of a hysteretic deformable mirror where the facesheet interacts with a continuous layer of piezoelectric material that can be actuated distributively by a matrix of electrodes through multiplexing.

General approach to precise deformable mirror control.
We develop a simple and effective control method for accurate control of deformable mirrors (DMs). For a desired DM surface profile and using batches of observed surface profile data, the proposed method adaptively determines both a DM model (influence ...

High pixel number deformable mirror concept utilizing piezoelectric hysteresis for stable shape configurations [PDF]
We present the conceptual design and initial development of the Hysteretic Deformable Mirror (HDM). The HDM is a completely new approach to the design and operation of deformable mirrors for wavefront correction in advanced imaging systems.

Atmospheric turbulence causes refractive index fluctuations, which in turn introduce extra distortions to the wavefront of the propagated radiation. It ultimately degrades telescope resolution (in imaging applications) and reduces radiation power density

Amplitude Zone Plate in Adaptive Optics: Proposal of the Principle
One of the main elements in hardware-based adaptive optics systems is a deformable mirror. There is quite a large number of such mirrors based on different principles and exhibiting varying performance.
