Wave front control systems based on modal liquid crystal lenses
Authors describe electro-optical systems for adaptive focusing of linearly polarized light. The systems are based on liquid crystal adaptive lenses, which are commercially available from OKO Technologies. Review of Scientific Instruments 71, 3290-3297 (2000) Author(s): M. Yu. Loktev, V. N. Belopukhov, F. L. Vladimirov, G. V. Vdovin, G. D. Love, A. F. Naumov Download
Shaped-pulse optimization of coherent emission of high-harmonic soft X-rays
The technique of pulse compression was applied to generation of coherent soft X-ray beams. The pulse-shaping apparatus was based on a micromachined deformable mirror from OKO Technologies. Nature 406, 164-166 (2000) Author(s): R. Bartels, S. Backus, E. Zeek, L. Misoguti, G. Vdovin, I. P. Christov, M. M. Murnane, H. C. Kapteyn Download
Adaptive pulse compression for transform-limited 15-fs high-energy pulse generation
Authors demonstrate the use of a pulse shaper based on OKO's micromachined membrane deformable mirror to correct high-order residual phase aberrations in a 1-mJ, 1-kHz, 15-fs laser amplif ier. Optics Letters 25, 587-589 (2000) Author(s): E. Zeek, R. Bartels, M. M. Murnane, H. C. Kapteyn, S. Backus, G. Vdovin Download
Smart microscope: an adaptive optics learning system for aberration correction in multiphoton confocal microscopy
Off-axis aberrations in a beam-scanning multiphoton confocal microscope are corrected with a deformable mirror from OKO Technologies. Optics Letters 25, 52-54 (2000) Author(s): O. Albert, L. Sherman, G. Mourou, T. B. Norris, G. Vdovin Download
A low cost adaptive optics system using a membrane mirror
A low cost adaptive optics system is presented. The system uses a 37 actuator membrane mirror (from OKO Technologies) and operates at frame rates up to 800 Hz using a single processor. Optics Express 6, 175-185 (2000) Author(s): C. Paterson, I. Munro, J. C. Dainty Download
Hybrid curvature and gradient wave-front sensor
Authors proposed a new wave-front sensor for adaptive optics that gives signals for the curvature and the two gradient components of the wave front simultaneously. The performance of such a sensor used in conjunction with a micromachined membrane deformable mirror (from OKO Technologies) is considered. Optics Letters 25, 1687-1689 (2000)Author(s): C. Paterson, J. C. Dainty Download
