Abstract

Key elements of the fast adaptive optical system (AOS), having correction frequency of 1400 Hz, for atmospheric turbulence compensation, are described in this paper. A water-cooled bimorph deformable mirror with 46 electrodes, as well as stacked actuator deformable mirror with 81 piezoactuators and 2000 Hz Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor were considered to be used to control the light beam. The parameters of the turbulence at the 1.2 km path of the light propagation were measured and analyzed. The key parameters for such an adaptive system were worked out.
