The National Ignition Facility (NIF) Wavefront Control System [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
A wavefront control system will be employed on NIF to correct beam aberrations that otherwise would limit the minimum target focal spot size. For most applications, NIF requires a focal spot that is a few times the diffraction limit.

An Improved Wavefront Control Algorithm for Large Space Telescopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Wavefront sensing and control is required throughout the mission lifecycle of large space telescopes such as James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). When an optic of such a telescope is controlled with both surface-deforming and rigid-body actuators, the ...

Complex pattern projection through a multimode fiber [PDF]

open access: yes
Wavefront shaping through multimode fibers has many interesting applications, such as micromanipulation and endoscopy, where the small diameter of fibers is an advantage in terms of miniaturization. However, pattern projection can suffer from deleterious

The Wavefront Control System for the National Ignition Facility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The National Ignition Facility (NIF) requires that pulses from each of the 192 laser beams be positioned on target with an accuracy of 50 {micro}m rms. Beam quality must be sufficient to focus a total of 1.8 MJ of 0.351-{micro}m light into a 600-{micro}m-

Demonstrating predictive wavefront control with the Keck II near-infrared pyramid wavefront sensor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The success of ground-based instruments for high contrast exoplanet imaging depends on the degree to which adaptive optics (AO) systems can mitigate atmospheric turbulence.
