Abstract

A deformable mirror control device is provided with improved response characteristic by devising the mode of control even if the deformable mirror has a large time constant in comparison with the response speed required in applications such as the retinal camera. The deformable mirror device comprises a deformable mirrorhaving a reflective surface deformed with an applied voltage, and a voltage control circuitfor controlling the voltage applied to the deformable mirrorHere, the voltage control circuitproduces a steady-state voltage at which the reflective surface of the deformable mirrortakes an intended shape in a steady state, and produces a transient voltage that causes the reflective surface of the deformable mirrorto deform toward the intended shape, and also produces a transient voltage that causes the shape of the reflective surface of the deformable mirrorto shift quickly toward the intended shape.
