摘要
The micromachined deformable or adaptive mirrors are being used in modern optical systems for astronomical imaging, laser-based communications and biomedical imaging. Deformable mirror fabricated using MEMS technology is a low cost, compact adaptive optical element for correction of the lower order optical aberrations such as defocus & astigmatism. In this paper, important development aspects of micromachined membrane mirror are discussed. The device has been successfully fabricated and characterized for various applications.
