Influence functions for a hysteretic deformable mirror with a high-density 2D array of actuators. [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Optics, 2020
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.

open access: yesOptics Express, 2021
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 ...

Ultralightweight deformable mirrors [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Optics, 2013
This paper presents a concept for ultralightweight deformable mirrors, based on a thin substrate of optical surface quality, coated with continuous active layers that provide separate modes of actuation at different length scales. This concept eliminates any kind of stiff backing structure for the mirror surface and exploits microfabrication ...

Nanolaminate Deformable Mirrors [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE/LEOS International Conference on Optical MEMS and Their Applications Conference, 2006., 2006
The paper describes two similar deformable mirrors that will demonstrate the feasibility of nanolaminate-based deformable mirrors over a wide range of size scales. Two complementary technologies: high-spatial-density electrostatic actuators and thin, flexible, lightweight nanolaminate foils are combined.

Architected Lattices with a Topological Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023
This article develops topological metamaterials showing multidirectional two‐step deformation under compression by embedding contact‐enabled topological mechanisms into lattice structures. Experiments on 3D‐printed 2D and 3D lattices and finite element simulations are conducted to demonstrate the working principle of the topological metamaterials.

Investigation of the Uniformity of Gel Shrinkage by Imaging Tracer Particles Using X‐Ray Microtomography

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView., 2023
A novel method for tracking structural changes in gels using widely accessible microcomputed tomography is presented and validated for various hydro‐, alco‐, and aerogels. The core idea of the method is to track positions of micrometer‐sized tracer particles entrapped in the gel and relate them to the density of the gel network.

Atmospheric Turbulence with Kolmogorov Spectra: Software Simulation, Real-Time Reconstruction and Compensation by Means of Adaptive Optical System with Bimorph and Stacked-Actuator Deformable Mirrors

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
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

Distributed actuator deformable mirror [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2011
In this paper we present a Deformable Mirror (DM) based on the continuous voltage distribution over a resistive layer. This DM can correct the low order aberrations (defocus, astigmatism, coma and spherical aberration) using three electrodes with nine contacts leading to an ideal device for sensorless applications. We present a mathematical description
