Active Optics in Modern, Large Optical Telescopes [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2001
Active optics is defined as the control of the shape and the alignment of the components of an optical system at low temporal frequencies. For modern large telescopes with flexible monolithic or segmented primary mirrors and also flexible structures this technique is indispensable to reach a performance which is either diffraction limited for an ...

LSST active optics system software architecture [PDF]

open access: greenAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2016
The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) is an 8-meter class wide-field telescope now under construction on Cerro Pachon, near La Serena, Chile. This ground-based telescope is designed to conduct a decade-long time domain survey of the optical sky.

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

Wave Aberration Correction for an Unobscured Off-Axis Three-Mirror Astronomical Telescope Using an Aberration Field Compensation Mechanism

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Studying how to use the coupling characteristics of net aberration fields induced by different perturbation parameters to realize the wave aberration compensation correction of perturbed telescopes is of great significance for the development of active ...

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.

Metal-Organic Hybrid Metamaterials for Spectral-Band Selective Active Terahertz Modulators

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Optically controlled spectral-band selective terahertz (THz) modulators based on metal-organic hybrid metamaterials were investigated. An artificially structured material, which consists of two single split-ring resonators put together on the split gap ...
