Flat-top beam formation with miniature bimorph deformable mirror

Bimorph deformable mirror with 63 electrodes on 20 mm aperture is discussed. Methods of dividing all round electrode into sectors with a square of 2-4 mm2 are described. Results of flat-top beam formation by means of 50 mm bimorph deformable mirror with 48 electrodes and 20 mm miniature bimorph mirror with 27 electrodes are presented.
