Adaptive optics wavefront correction technologies

Imagine Optic has developed its technology to be compatible with a wide array of manufacturer's deformable mirrors for diverse applications in adaptive optics. Whether your needs call for a loop fitted with a deformable mirror for easy, precise correction or SLM for high spatial resolution, we can get you up and running quickly.

We distribute and support many leading manufacturers’ wavefront correction hardware with deformable mirrors in diameters ranging from 15mm to 125 mm and from 19 to 60 actuators, and liquid crystal phase modulators up to 480x480 pixels.

We are equally an authorized reseller of the mirao™ 52-e Electromagnetic Deformable Mirror manufactured by our sister company, Imagine Eyes.  mirao provides users with a unique ±50 µm of stroke (tilt p/v) all the while maintaining excellent linearity and virtually eliminating hysteresis.  Even more, its membrane surface boasts impressive optical quality (10nm rms actively flattened).  With its 15mm effective pupil that is controlled by 52 electromagnetic actuators, mirao is ideal for a variety of precision applications.
