Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For wave-front correction of a space borne telescope, small correction mirror was developed. Wave-front error was defined by simulation. Then the correction mirror was designed in order to cancel the wave-front error. 30 mm diameter device was manufactured and measured. Based on some assumptions, simulation shows that wave-front correction with this mirror is useful for exoplanet observation using a space infrared telescope.
