Scientific paper

A novel, modular-configuration derived from the monolithic piezoelectric mirror has been incorporated into a next-generation wavefront correction device furnishing high spatial and temporal resolution. The modular design philosophy employed combines conventional wavefront corrector technology with microcircuitry integration techniques, and uses electrostrictive lead-magnesium niobate due to its low voltage, low power dissipation, and negligible hysteresis characteristics. Care has been taken to combine performance considerations with criteria for the production of a cost-effective, scalable, and easily maintainable device configuration.
