Self-coherent camera as a focal plane wavefront sensor: simulations

open access: yes, 2009
Direct detection of exoplanets requires high dynamic range imaging. Coronagraphs could be the solution, but their performance in space is limited by wavefront errors (manufacturing errors on optics, temperature variations, etc.), which create quasi ...

Coherence Awareness in Diffractive Neural Networks

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
It is demonstrated that spatial coherence significantly impacts all‐optical diffractive neural networks, unlike imaging systems. A general framework is proposed for training diffractive networks for any specified degree of spatial and temporal coherence. Coherence‐blind networks are further introduced, which are resilient to illumination changes. These

High resolution wavefront correction with photocontrolled deformable mirror

open access: yesOptics Express, 2012
We demonstrate that a novel actuation scheme, employed in an optical control deformable mirror, can be more convenient than the conventional discrete fixed actuators approach. The Photo-Controlled Deformable Mirror (PCDM) mirror leverages consumer LCD display technology in the wavefront forming control, enabling flexible programmable configuration of ...

The effect of wavefront corrugations on fringe motion in an astronomical interferometer with spatial filters

open access: yes, 2005
Numerical simulations of atmospheric turbulence and AO wavefront correction are performed to investigate the timescale for fringe motion in optical interferometers with spatial filters.

Deconvolution Techniques in Optical Coherence Tomography: Advancements, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
This review explores deconvolution techniques in optical coherence tomography (OCT), addressing resolution degradation from point‐spread functions (PSF). It reviews foundational principles (e.g., Richardson‐Lucy deconvolution) to advanced AI‐driven methods, emphasizing clinical translation and interdisciplinary collaboration. Real‐world implementations

Telescopes Alignment Using the Sharpness Function Method Based on Undersampled Images

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2019
In astronomy, the images are sometimes undersampled. In the previous research works, image reconstructions have to be employed to recover the lost information from a set of undersampled images to achieve a high-resolution image using dithering or drizzle

Sensing and control of segmented mirrors with a pyramid wavefront sensor in the presence of spiders

open access: yes, 2017
The segmentation of the telescope pupil (by spiders & the segmented M4) create areas of phase isolated by the width of the spiders on the wavefront sensor (WFS), breaking the spatial continuity of the wavefront.

Bendable Fiber Lens for Minimally Invasive Endoscopy

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Translating ex vivo imaging to minimally invasive in vivo applications is of outstanding scientific and socioeconomic relevance. 3D imaging based on tiny lensless fiber endoscopes requires complex setups and computational schemes, so far. Bridging this gap, imaging through a unique optical fiber that mimics the functionality of a lens but is minimally ...

Adaptive particle image velocimetry based on sharpness metrics

open access: yesJournal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2018
Background Optical distortions can significantly deteriorate the measurement accuracy in particle image velocimetry systems. Such distortions can occur at fluctuating phase boundaries during flow measurement and result from the accompanied refractive ...
