Zusammenfassung:An adaptive optical element for microlithography comprises at least one manipulator for changing the shape of an optical surface of the optical element. The manipulator comprises a one-piece dielectric medium which is deformable by applying an electric field, electrodes that are arranged in interconnection with the one-piece dielectric medium, and a voltage generator which is wired to the electrodes and configured to apply to the electrodes, firstly, a control voltage that serves to change a longitudinal extent of the dielectric medium and, secondly, an AC voltage that serves to heat the dielectric medium.
