Detection of phase singularities with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor
, 2006 While adaptive optical systems are able to remove moderate wavefront distortions in scintillated optical beams, phase singularities that appear in strongly scintillated beams can severely degrade the performance of such an adaptive optical system ...

Compressive Wavefront Sensing with Weak Values [PDF]
, 2014 We demonstrate a wavefront sensor based on the compressive sensing, single-pixel camera. Using a high-resolution spatial light modulator (SLM) as a variable waveplate, we weakly couple an optical field's transverse-position and polarization degrees of ...

Measuring Ocular Aberrations Sequentially Using a Digital Micromirror Device
Micromachines, 2019 The Hartmann⁻Shack wavefront sensor is widely used to measure aberrations in both astronomy and ophthalmology. Yet, the dynamic range of the sensor is limited by cross-talk between adjacent lenslets.

Metasurfaces in Adaptive Optics: A New Opportunity in Optical Wavefront Sensing
Laser &Photonics Reviews, Volume 19, Issue 24, December 17, 2025.Wavefront sensing constitutes a critical component of adaptive optics systems, aimed at quantitatively measuring distorted wavefronts and enabling closed‐loop correction in optical setups. Metasurfaces, as planar optical elements composed of nanoscale structures, provide exceptional freedom in modulating multiple dimensions of the light field.

An Optical Wavefront Sensor Based on a Double Layer Microlens Array
Sensors, 2011 In order to determine light aberrations, Shack-Hartmann optical wavefront sensors make use of microlens arrays (MLA) to divide the incident light into small parts and focus them onto image planes.
