In these cases, the use of deformable mirrors is simply very important. In the high-power laser setups, the task of correction of laser aberrations assumes the use of thermally stabilized optical elements. We consider that two types of wavefront correctors are the most well-suitable for such an application: bimorph deformable mirrors and stacked-actuator (SADM) ones. Bimorph deformable mirrors proved their reliability and could be used in high-power industrial lasers. They can perfectly correct for low-order and are simple in manufacturing. On the contrary stacked-actuator mirror can reproduce high-order wavefront aberrations and thus have high spatial resolution of control elements and might be applied in fast adaptive optical systems to correct for laser radiation distributed through turbulent media.","PeriodicalId":325837,"journal":{"name":"2020 International Conference Laser Optics (ICLO)","volume":"347 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125872678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
