This is probably the most popular deformable mirror ever made.
In production since 1997, hundreds of these devices are used by
scientists and engineers in all kinds of adaptive optics project,
including laser beam control, real time atmospheric correction,
ophthalmology, intracavity laser control, communications,
holographic memory, optical fiber switching, etc.
Properties of these mirrors are described in numerous scientific
publications. Available with Al and gold coatings as standard,
custom orders for protected silver and multilayer laser coatings
available. The deflection range measured in the center of the
membrane is about 25 fringes at 633 nm. In addition to standard
silicon nitride-based mirrors, we produce mirrors with thicker
polysilicon membrane, featuring higher reliability and snap-on
protection.
