Comparison study of the performance of piston, thin plate and membrane mirrors for correction of turbulence-induced phase distortions
In the framework of the Kolmogorov turbulence model and analytical and numerical models of deformable mirrors, the authors investigated and intercompared the correction performances of piston, membrane and flexible faceplate (with either free edge, supported edge or clamped edge) adaptive mirrors featuring orthogonal, hexagonal and segmented ring actuator structures.

Microelectromechanical system programmable aberration generator for adaptive optics
A 37-actuator micromachined membrane deformable mirror from OKO Technologies was used as a programmable aberration generator. Applied Optics 40, 2063-2067 (2001) Author(s): R. K. Tyson, B. W. Frazier Download
Intracavity control of a 200-W continuous-wave Nd:YAG laser by a micromachined deformable mirror
A silicon micromachined membrane deformable mirror with a diameter of 10 mm, reflectivity of better than 99.8%, and a surface deflection range of 3 mm has been used for intracavity control of an industrial 200-W cw Nd:YAG laser.

Versatile 7-fs optical parametric pulse generation and compression by use of adaptive optics
Authors have compressed the output from a b-barium borate noncollinear optical parametric amplifier to ~7-fs pulse durations, using a micromachined deformable mirror (from OKO Technologies) with an efficient search algorithm. Optics Letters 26, 1152-1154, (2001)

Closed-loop adaptive optics in the human eye
Authors demonstrated real-time closed-loop correction of aberrations in the living eye. Defocus is removed by a motorized optometer, and higher-order aberrations are corrected by a membrane deformable mirror from OKO Technologies. Optics Letters 26, 746-748 (2001) Author(s): E. J. Fernández, I. Iglesias, P. Artal Download
