Photonics, 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]
SPIE 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

Active optics: deformable mirrors with a minimum number of actuators [PDF]
Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2012 We present two concepts of deformable mirror to compensate for first order optical aberrations. Deformation systems are designed using both elasticity theory and Finite Element Analysis in order to minimize the number of actuators.

Amplitude Zone Plate in Adaptive Optics: Proposal of the Principle
Photonics, 2022 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.

Active Optics–Freeform Segment Mirror Replications from a Deformable Matrix
Photonics, 2022 We present a new active optics method for making smooth aspheric, or freeform, mirrors by replication technique from an elastically deformable matrix.

Stroke amplifier for deformable mirrors [PDF]
Applied Optics, 2004 We demonstrate a simple optical configuration that amplifies the usable stroke of a deformable mirror. By arranging for the wavefront to traverse the deformable mirror more than once, we correct it more than once. The experimental implementation of the idea demonstrates a doubling of 2.0 and 2.04 by two different means.

A direct comparison between a MEMS deformable mirror and a liquid crystal spatial light modulator in signal-based wavefront sensing [PDF]
Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2013 Aberrations degrade the performance of optical systems in terms of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio. This work explores the feasibility of a signal-based wavefront sensor, which employs a search algorithm to estimate Zernike coefficients of given ...
