Active Optics—Progress in Modeling of Tulip-like Variable Curvature Mirrors

open access: yesOptics, 2023
We present new results obtained from the modeling of a tulip-like variable curvature mirror (VCM) in the case of a central force that reacts to its contour.

Large Piston Error Detection Method Based on the Multiwavelength Phase Shift Interference and Dynamic Adjustment Strategy

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
As the loading space in rockets and mirror fabrication technology is limited, optical systems in space cannot have large optical apertures. However, the successful launch and excellent performance of the James Webb Telescope indicate that segmented ...

Coarse Phasing Detection Using Multiwavelength Wavefront

open access: yesPhotonics, 2023
Presently, the segmented mirror is the mainstream development direction of large-aperture telescopes. The key problem affecting the performance of segmented mirror telescopes concerns the co-phase of the segments. The segments’ co-phase includes the fine

Active Support System for the Correction of a 4m SiC Primary Mirror Based on the Bending Mode

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Active optics is a key technology in ground-based large-aperture telescopes. The active correction of the surface shape of the primary mirror is used to reduce the surface shape error and improve the imaging quality.

Anamorphic zoom system based on liquid crystal displays [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2009
In this work we present an anamorphic zoom system, based on liquid crystal displays, which allows changing the magnification and distortion of an image very quickly, without mechanical parts and keeping the output plane stationary.
