High Bandwidth, Fine Resolution Deformable Mirror Design.

Abstract

This report describes the design, fabrication and testing of five candidate actuator types to achieve a deformable mirror capable of 6 microns dilatation at 1.5 kV. The actuator types are the coherent stack, bimorph, tube, multilayer and the honeycomb.
