Depth-Resolved Wavefront Aberrations using a Coherence-Gated Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the present paper we investigate the possibility of narrowing the depth range of a physical Shack - Hartmann (SH) wavefront sensor (WFS) by using coherence gating.

Compressive Wavefront Sensing with Weak Values [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We demonstrate a wavefront sensor that unites weak measurement and 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 ...

Shack–Hartmann Wavefront Sensing Based on Four-Quadrant Binary Phase Modulation

open access: yesPhotonics, 2022
Aiming at the problem that it is difficult for the conventional Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensor to achieve high-precision wavefront reconstruction with low spatial sampling, a kind of Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensing technology based on four-quadrant ...

Metasurface-Enabled Helical Wavefront Fingerprint Metrology for Quantitative Retrieval of Liquid Optical Constants. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
A metasurface‐enabled helical wavefront fingerprint (MHWF) paradigm is proposed for quantitative and specific retrieval of a liquid medium's refractive index and extinction coefficient. The liquid's complex dielectric response governs the wavefront evolution of the metasurface‐generated focused vortex beam, forming a distinctive three‐dimensional ...

Beam wavefront retrieval by convoluted spatial spectral benchmark

open access: yesMatter and Radiation at Extremes, 2021
We propose a method for retrieving a beam wavefront from its near-field intensity distribution after a 4f system by simply inserting a benchmark at the Fourier plane.
