Mirao
Electromagnetic deformable mirror
High optical quality
& linearity
Large
dynamic range
Optional
high stabilization
Description
Mirao Deformable Mirror incorporates technology using 52 electromagnetic actuators, enough to precisely correct up to 6th order Zernike modes.
It also provides a 50μm PV deformation amplitude, making it a useful tool for various bio-imaging, microscopy and ophthalmology applications where you will need to correct large-amplitude aberrations.
For use over a long period of time, a high stabilization option is available : Mirao regulated.
You can also ask for a dust proof version : Mirao protected
Technology and features of Mirao
Principle & implementaion
Electronic unit connection to the PC via USB port
Trigger output available to facilitate synchronization with other devices via TTL signal
Advantages of Mirao
Closed-loop precision reaching 7nm RMS
Virtually no hysteresis (less than 2%)
Nearly perfect linearity (more than 95%)
Dust proof & high stabilization options available
About the software
For easy and fast implementation, we recommend using WaveTune, program controls all the elements with a simple user interface
For implementation of aberration detection methods into home-built software, we also provide WaveKit Bio, the Software Development Kit (SDK)
