High-resolution imaging and spectroscopy in the visible from large ground-based telescopes with natural guide stars

open access: yes, 2010
Near-diffraction limited imaging and spectroscopy in the visible on large (8-10 meter) class telescopes has proved to be beyond the capabilities of current adaptive optics technologies, even when using laser guide stars.

Modeling low order aberrations in laser guide star adaptive optics systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
When using a laser guide star (LGS) adaptive optics (AO) system, quasi-static aberrations are observed between the measured wavefronts from the LGS wavefront sensor (WFS) and the natural guide star (NGS) WFS.

Wavefront subaperture stitching with Shack-Hartmann sensor [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2015
A new approach for large field of view measurement using the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS) is proposed. The object to be measured is divided into several subaperture units. Each unit is measured using the SHWS and a new algorithm is applied to stitch these units.

Retinal Peripheral Defocus and Peripheral Refractive Measurement Techniques: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The theory of retinal peripheral defocus currently represents the prevailing paradigm for myopia prevention and control. Research studies on peripheral refraction indicate that peripheral defocus is significantly associated with the management and progression of myopia.

Evaluation of Corneal Irregular Astigmatism and Visual Quality Following Bilateral Sequential SMILE and LASEK: A Six‐Year Comparative Study

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Purpose To compare the corneal spherical component (SC), regular astigmatism (RA), irregular astigmatism (IA, including asymmetry and irregularity), and visual quality 6 years after small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and laser subepithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) for mild‐to‐moderate myopia.

Adaptive optics design for high-energy kW-class multi-slab laser amplifiers

open access: yesHigh Power Laser Science and Engineering
We demonstrate real-time wavefront correction in a high-energy high-average-power DiPOLE100/Bivoj laser using adaptive optics. A bimorph deformable mirror and a Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor reduced wavefront error 10-fold and improved the Strehl ratio

Fast minimum variance wavefront reconstruction for extremely large telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present a new algorithm, FRiM (FRactal Iterative Method), aiming at the reconstruction of the optical wavefront from measurements provided by a wavefront sensor.

Metasurfaces in Adaptive Optics: A New Opportunity in Optical Wavefront Sensing

open access: yesLaser &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.
