MEMS Deformable Mirrors for Astronomical Adaptive Optics

We report on the development of high actuator count, micro-electromechanical (MEMS) deformable mirrors designed for high order wavefront correction in ground and space-based astronomical adaptive optics instruments. The design of these polysilicon, surface-micromachined MEMS deformable mirrors builds on technology that has been used extensively to correct for ocular aberrations in retinal imagi...

Inverse problems in astronomical adaptive optics

Adaptive optics (AO) is a technology used in ground-based astronomy to correct for the wavefront aberrations and loss of image quality caused by atmospheric turbulence. Provided some difficult technical problems can be overcome, AO will enable future astronomers to achieve nearly diffractionlimited performance with the extremely large telescopes that are currently under development, thereby gre...

MEMS deformable mirrors in astronomical adaptive optics

We report on the development of microelectromechanical (MEMS) deformable mirrors designed for ground and space-based astronomical instruments using adaptive optics. These light-weight, low power deformable mirrors will have an active aperture of up to 25.2mm consisting of thin silicon membrane mirror supported by an array of up to 4096 electrostatic actuators exhibiting no hysteresis and sub-na...

Astronomical Results from the University of Hawaii Adaptive Optics Program: Astronomical Problems Well Suited to Adaptive Optics Techniques

The University of Hawaii adaptive optics (AO) group has been actively carrying out astronomical AO observations for the last four years. The UHAO group and our collaborators have utilized the curvature AO system to obtain diffraction-limited images of asteroids, planets, moons, protoplanetary disks, young stars, young star clusters, planetary nebulae, black holes, galaxies, and quasars. The cur...

Chromatic effects of the atmosphere on astronomical adaptive optics.

The atmosphere introduces chromatic errors that may limit the performance of adaptive optics (AO) systems on large telescopes. Various aspects of this problem have been considered in the literature over the past two decades. It is necessary to revisit this problem in order to examine the effect on currently planned systems, including very high-order AO on current 8-10 m class telescopes and on ...
