Abstract
The static response function f(x,y) of bimorph mirror is calculated with the algorithms of Gaussian iteration and Monte-Carlo, while the performance of bimorph mirror deduced by Kokorowski is described using Poisson's equation, which meets the Neumann boundary conditions. The Zernike polynomials are fitted separately with whole set of response functions which are taken as base functions. The optimization of bimorph mirror is considered for a given pattern and the low order aberrations. The effectiveness of correction is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. The optical performed is analyzed and tested thereafter.
