Abstract
Arbitrary spatial beam shaping was demonstrated with a membrane electrostatic actuator type deformable mirror (DM). An automatic closed loop system must optimize such beam shapes as flattop. Well-characterized short pulse laser beam is widely required for a photocathode RF gun or for microscopic processing, etc. We propose a new sophisticated optimizing method based on a genetic algorithm (GA) for spatial shaping. A membrane type DM is driven by electrostatic attraction power, and applied electrode voltages vs displacement of membrane surface have a square function relationship. We prepare discrete electrode voltages to linearly change displacement as a utilized gene of the initial population in GA. Using uniform crossover without mutation in this method, we can make an arbitrary spatial beam shape quasi-flattop.
