Abstract
An enhancing Coleman–Hodgdon model is introduced to describe the hysteresis curves of the bimorph deformable mirror (DM). Hysteresis curves are measured from a bimorph DM and then experiment is set up for the correction of hysteresis. Finally, step response and transfer functions of a curvature adaptive optics (AO) system are compared in three cases: with DM hysteresis, without hysteresis, and with hysteresis but corrected. Simulation results show that the bandwidth of a curvature AO system is improved significantly under different loop gains after hysteresis of the DM is corrected.
