Piezoelectric PVDF actuated, lightweight deformable thin mirror for adaptive optics

Abstract

We present a light-weight deformable concept based on film-form glass and piezoelectric PVDF films compatible with a roll-to-roll compatible fabrication process. The feasibility of the approach is demonstrated through FEA simulations.
