Focal plane wavefront sensing using machine learning: performance of convolutional neural networks compared to fundamental limits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Focal plane wavefront sensing (FPWFS) is appealing for several reasons. Notably, it offers high sensitivity and does not suffer from non-common path aberrations (NCPA).

Adaptive optical microscopy via virtual-imaging-assisted wavefront sensing for high-resolution tissue imaging

open access: yesPhotoniX, 2022
Adaptive optics (AO) is a powerful tool for optical microscopy to counteract the effects of optical aberrations and improve the imaging performance in biological tissues.

Advanced wavefront sensing and control demonstration with MagAO-X [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2022
The search for exoplanets is pushing adaptive optics systems on ground-based telescopes to their limits. Currently, we are limited by two sources of noise: the temporal control error and non-common path aberrations.

Optimal broadband starlight injection into a single-mode fibre with integrated photonic wavefront sensing.

open access: yesOptics Express, 2022
In astronomy and related fields there is a pressing need to efficiently inject light, transmitted through the atmosphere, into a single-mode fibre. However this is extremely difficult due to the large, rapidly changing aberrations imprinted on the light ...

Terahertz referenceless wavefront sensing by means of computational shear-interferometry.

open access: yesOptics Express, 2022
In this contribution, we demonstrate the first referenceless measurement of a THz wavefront by means of shear-interferometry. The technique makes use of a transmissive Ronchi phase grating to generate the shear.

Joint optimization of wavefront sensing and reconstruction with automatic differentiation [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation, 2022
High-contrast imaging instruments need extreme wavefront control to directly image exoplanets. This requires highly sensitive wavefront sensors which optimally make use of the available photons to sense the wavefront.

Surface Measurement Using Compressed Wavefront Sensing

open access: yesPhotonic Sensors, 2018
Compressed sensing leverages the sparsity of signals to reduce the amount of measurements required for its reconstruction. The Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor meanwhile is a flexible sensor where its sensitivity and dynamic range can be adjusted based on

Non-modulated pyramid wavefront sensor. Use in sensing and correcting atmospheric turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Context. The diffusion of adaptive optics systems in astronomical instrumentation for large ground-based telescopes is rapidly increasing and the pyramid wavefront sensor is replacing the Shack-Hartmann as the standard solution for single conjugate ...

A Tip–Tilt and Piston Detection Approach for Segmented Telescopes

open access: yesPhotonics, 2020
Accurate segmented mirror wavefront sensing and control is essential for next-generation large aperture telescope system design. In this paper, a direct tip–tilt and piston error detection technique based on model-based phase retrieval with multiple ...

Wavefront sensing with critical sampling [PDF]

open access: yesOptics Letters, 2011
Different types of nonredundant sampling patterns are shown to guarantee completeness of the basis formed by the sampled partial derivatives of Zernike polynomials, commonly used to reconstruct the wavefront from its slopes (wavefront sensing). In the ideal noise-free case, this enables one to recover double the number of modes J than sampling points I
