Surface Measurement Using Compressed Wavefront Sensing
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

One-Dimensional High-Resolution Wavefront Sensor Enabled by Subwavelength Compound Gratings
Angle sensors are widely used for wavefront measurements, which is attributed to their integration and robustness. Currently, commercial sensors are available with pixel sizes in the order of wavelengths.

Polarized Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor
Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWFS) has been widely used in adaptive optics (AO) systems to detect phase distortion characteristics. In laser communication, target detection, vision optics and other application fields, the performance of SHWFS is ...

Correction performance of an adaptive optics (AO) system is severely limited by its system latency under high temporal frequency distortions. Wavefront prediction methods has been proven to be an effective way to compensate system delay.

We report the implementation of an image sensor chip, termed wavefront image sensor chip (WIS), that can measure both intensity/amplitude and phase front variations of a light wave separately and quantitatively. By monitoring the tightly confined transmitted light spots through a circular aperture grid in a high Fresnel number regime, we can measure ...

Non-uniform intensity distribution of laser near-field beam results in the irregular shape of the spot in the wavefront sensor. The intensity of some sub-aperture spots may be too weak to be detected, and the accuracy of wavefront restoration is ...

Modeling classical wavefront sensors
We present an image formation model for deterministic phase retrieval in propagation-based wavefront sensing, unifying analysis for classical wavefront sensors such as Shack-Hartmann (slopes tracking) and curvature sensors (based on Transport-of-Intensity Equation).

Differential wavefront curvature sensor [PDF]
In this paper, a wavefront curvature sensor is presented. This sensor is based on the measurements of the differentials of wavefront slopes, where the wavefront slope measurements can be achieved by a Shack-Hartmann sensor. A Shack-Hartmann sensor with three output collimated beams will be introduced with a lenslet array installed in each beam.

Fourier transform-wavefront reconstruction for the pyramid wavefront sensor [PDF]
The application of Fourier-transform reconstruction techniques to the pyramid wavefront sensor has been investigated. A preliminary study based on end-to-end simulations of an adaptive optics system with ≈40x40 subapertures and actuators shows that the performance of the Fourier-transform reconstructor (FTR) is of the same order of magnitude than the ...

Wavefront Sensing for Evaluation of Extreme Ultraviolet Microscopy
Wavefront analysis is a fast and reliable technique for the alignment and characterization of optics in the visible, but also in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray regions.
