Wavefront control in space with MEMS deformable mirrors for exoplanet direct imaging

Wavefront control in space with MEMS deformable mirrors for exoplanet direct imaging

To meet the high contrast requirement of 1×10[superscript −10] to image an Earth-like planet around a sun-like star, space telescopes equipped with coronagraphs require wavefront control systems. Deformable mirrors (DMs) are a key element of a wavefront control system, as they correct for imperfecti...
