Influence functions for a hysteretic deformable mirror with a high density 2D array of actuators

Instrumentation and Detectors 2020-09-14 v2

Abstract

We present modeling and analysis of a hysteretic deformable mirror where the facesheet interacts with a continuous layer of piezoelectric material that can be actuated distributively by a matrix of electrodes through multiplexing. Moreover, a method for calculating the actuator influence functions is described considering the particular arrangement of electrodes. The results are presented in a semi-analytical model to describe the facesheet's deformation caused by a high density array of actuators, and validated in a simulation. The proposed modeling of an interconnection layout of electrodes is used to determine the optimal pressures the actuators have to exert for achieving a desired surface deformation.
