Figure 10
(Upper plot) Sagitta change of the bimorph mirror when a series of large voltage jumps (−800, −400, 0, 400, 800 V) were sequentially applied to change the curvature at hourly intervals in either open- (blue curve) or closed-loop (green curve). (Lower plots) Zoom in on three regions of the upper plot, all corresponding to the same applied voltage. Closed-loop successfully stabilizes the mirror radius, whereas unpredictable drifts of up to 150 nm occur in open-loop (due to piezo creep and strain from the holder).
