Optimization of Iterative Control Algorithms for High-Resolution Adaptive Optics Systems

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal
As the number of wavefront sensor subapertures and deformable mirror actuators in adaptive optics systems increases, the computational time of the direct gradient wavefront control algorithm is excessively long, which is a major factor affecting the ...

Wavefront-sensing with a thin diffuser

open access: yes, 2017
We propose and implement a broadband, compact, and low-cost wavefront sensing scheme by simply placing a thin diffuser in the close vicinity of a camera. The local wavefront gradient is determined from the local translation of the speckle pattern.

Mechanics of Telson Ridges in Mantis Shrimp for Impact Analysis and Implications for Bioinspired Elastic Shell Designs

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The mantis shrimp telson reveals how ridged biological shields control deformation under impact. Inspired by this architecture, telson‐inspired ridged curved shells transform ridge geometry and macroscopic curvature into bidirectional snap‐through, tunable stiffness, and enhanced hysteretic energy dissipation for multifunctional architected materials ...
