Micro-Deformable Mirror: a low cost technology for cryogenic active and adaptive optics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Electrostatically operated bi-directional deflecting silicon membranes can be created using bulk micromachining techniques. The 19-channel Micro-Deformable Mirror, potential candidate for space Active and Adaptive Optics, was built by OKO Technologies ...

Novel unimorph deformable mirror for space applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have developed a new type of unimorph deformable mirror, designed to correct for low-order Zernike modes. The mirror has a clear optical aperture of 50 mm combined with large peak-to-valley Zernike amplitudes of up to 35 μm.

Thermodynamic Pathways of Nonequilibrium Solidification in Wire‐Arc Additive Manufacturing Fe‐Based Multicomponent Alloy Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Geometry‐driven thermal behavior in wire‐arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) influences microstructural evolution during nonequilibrium solidification of a chemically complex Fe–Cr–Nb–W–Mo–C nanocomposite system. By comparing different deposits configurations, distinct entropy–cooling rate correlations, segregation, and carbide evolution are revealed ...

Affecting the Properties of Copper–Graphene Electroconductive Composite by Severe Plastic Deformation

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Copper‐based composites enhanced with carbon feature convenient mechanical properties and favorable electric conductivity. Processing via deformation and thermomechanical treatments can introduce advantageous microstructures further enhancing their performance. Herein, copper–graphene powder‐based composites are directly consolidated via rotary swaging

An active piezoelectric plane X-ray focusing mirror with a linearly changing thickness

open access: yesJournal of Synchrotron Radiation
X-ray mirrors for synchrotron radiation are often bent into a curved figure and work under grazing-incidence conditions due to the strong penetrating nature of X-rays to most materials.

A Design Approach to Reducing Stress and Distortion Caused by Adhesive Assembly in Micromachined Deformable Mirrors

open access: yesMicromachines, 2023
A common problem in deformable mirror assembly is that the adhesion of actuators to an optical mirror face sheet introduces unwanted topography due to large local stresses generated at the adhesive joint.

Superlubricity and Corrosion Inhibition Properties of Solvate Ionic Liquids in Hybrid Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic–Steel Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Solvate ionic liquids lubrication reduced the coefficient of friction by ∼60% compared to dry sliding, reaching steady‐state values as low as 0.04–0.05. Corrosion weight‐loss measurements in 1 M HCl further demonstrated significant inhibition behavior, with only 100 ppm of [Li(G3)][TFSI] (∼68.5 μL/L) reducing corrosion‐product weight loss by 63 ...

Adaptive optics design for high-energy kW-class multi-slab laser amplifiers

open access: yesHigh Power Laser Science and Engineering
We demonstrate real-time wavefront correction in a high-energy high-average-power DiPOLE100/Bivoj laser using adaptive optics. A bimorph deformable mirror and a Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor reduced wavefront error 10-fold and improved the Strehl ratio

Thermal Balance and Active Damping of a Piezoelectric Deformable Mirror for Adaptive Optics

open access: yesActuators, 2019
Piezoelectric unimorph deformable mirrors offer a cheap solution to adaptive optics, with mass production capability. However, standard solutions have significant drawbacks: (i) the static shape is sensitive to the temperature, and (ii) the low ...
