Technology and electro-optical properties of modal liquid crystal wavefront correctors
Abstract
A multi-channel liquid crystal modal wavefront corrector is presented and the manufacturing procedure, which was developed especially for this type of corrector, is described in detail. An experimental analysis of the static and dynamic properties of the corrector and the results of close-loop wavefront correction are also presented.
