Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of the efficiency of using bimorph deformable mirrors and mirrors on piezoactuators for the problem of focusing scattered laser radiation. In this paper, we study the efficiency of a piezoactuator deformable mirror with 61 piezopackets and an aperture of 60 mm, as well as a bimorph mirror with 48 electrodes and an aperture of 50 mm. It is shown that such mirrors can be used to optimize the focal spot formed by scattered radiation in the far-field.
