Modified Method to Detect the Turbulent Layers in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer for the Large Solar Vacuum Telescope

Atmosphere, 2021
A method to detect the atmospheric turbulent layers using a single Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor is discussed. In order to determine the height distribution of the atmospheric turbulence above a telescope, we register the wavefront distortions at ...

Highly Stable Spatio-Temporal Prediction Network of Wavefront Sensor Slopes in Adaptive Optics

Sensors, 2023
Adaptive Optics (AO) technology is an effective means to compensate for wavefront distortion, but its inherent delay error will cause the compensation wavefront on the deformable mirror (DM) to lag behind the changes in the distorted wavefront ...

Expanded Scene Image Preprocessing Method for the Shack–Hartmann Wavefront Sensor

Applied Sciences, 2023
Due to the influence of atmospheric turbulence, the detector, and background noise, the subaperture image of an extended scene Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor will have a low signal-to-noise ratio, which will introduce errors to the offset estimation and

Atmospheric Turbulence with Kolmogorov Spectra: Software Simulation, Real-Time Reconstruction and Compensation by Means of Adaptive Optical System with Bimorph and Stacked-Actuator Deformable Mirrors

Photonics, 2023
Atmospheric turbulence causes refractive index fluctuations, which in turn introduce extra distortions to the wavefront of the propagated radiation. It ultimately degrades telescope resolution (in imaging applications) and reduces radiation power density

Wide-Aperture Bimorph Deformable Mirror for Beam Focusing in 4.2 PW Ti:Sa Laser

Applied Sciences, 2022
The bimorph deformable mirror with a diameter of 320 mm, including 127 control electrodes, has been developed and tested. The flatness of the initial mirror surface of about 1 μm (P-V) was achieved by mechanically adjusting the mirror substrate fixed in ...

Adaptable Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor with diffractive lenslet arrays to mitigate the effects of scintillation.

Optics Express, 2020
Adaptive optics systems are used to compensate for distortions of the wavefront of light induced by turbulence in the atmosphere. Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors are used to measure this wavefront distortion before correction.
