Modeling classical wavefront sensors
Optics Express, 2020 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).

Polarized Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor
Frontiers in Physics, 2023 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 ...

Surface Measurement Using Compressed Wavefront Sensing
Photonic 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

Breaking of Wavelength-Dependence in Holographic Wavefront Sensors Using Spatial-Spectral Filtering
Sensors, 2023 Nowadays, wavefront sensors are widely used to control the shape of the wavefront and detect aberrations of the complex field amplitude in various fields of physics. However, almost all of the existing wavefront sensors work only with quasi-monochromatic

Study of a MEMS-based Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor with adjustable pupil sampling for astronomical adaptive optics [PDF]
, 2008 We introduce a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor for adaptive optics that enables dynamic control of the spatial sampling of an incoming wavefront using a segmented mirror microelectrical mechanical systems (MEMS) device.

The coronagraphic Modal Wavefront Sensor: a hybrid focal-plane sensor for the high-contrast imaging of circumstellar environments [PDF]
, 2016 The raw coronagraphic performance of current high-contrast imaging instruments is limited by the presence of a quasi-static speckle (QSS) background, resulting from instrumental non-common path errors (NCPEs).

A Demonstration of Wavefront Sensing and Mirror Phasing from the Image Domain [PDF]
, 2014 In astronomy and microscopy, distortions in the wavefront affect the dynamic range of a high contrast imaging system. These aberrations are either imposed by a turbulent medium such as the atmosphere, by static or thermal aberrations in the optical path,

One-Dimensional High-Resolution Wavefront Sensor Enabled by Subwavelength Compound Gratings
Photonics, 2023 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.

Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT We report on a tapered three-core optical fibre that can be used as a tip–tilt wavefront sensor. In this device, a coupled region of a few millimetres at the sensing tip of the fibre converts fragile phase information from an incoming wavefront into robust intensity information within each of the cores. The intensity information

Wavefront Sensing for Evaluation of Extreme Ultraviolet Microscopy
Sensors, 2020 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.
