Measurement Error of Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor
A Shack-Hartmann sensor is one of the most important and popular wavefront sensors used in an adaptive optics system to measure the aberrations caused by either atmospheric turbulence, laser transmission, or the living eye [1-7]. Its design was based on an aperture array that was developed in 1900 by Johannes Franz Hartmann as a means to trace individual rays of light through the optical system...
متن کاملTelescope alignment from sparsely sampled wavefront measurements over pupil subapertures.
We present a simple formalism that has proven useful in on-axis alignment of two-element telescopes when wavefront information is available from only a limited region (here two noncontiguous subapertures) of the pupil. Misalignments cause predictable full-aperture aberrations, which in turn cause predictable tip/tilt modes in the subapertures. For the most useful case in which secondary mirror ...
متن کاملPupil wavefront manipulation for optical nanolithography
As semiconductor lithography is pushed to smaller dimensions, process yields tend to suffer due to subwavelength topographical imaging effects. Three dimensional or “thick mask” effects result in such things as a pitch dependent best focus and, for alternating phase shift masks (AltPSMs), an intensity imbalance between etched and un-etched features. Corrective mask structures such as the dual t...
متن کاملRefractive error sensing from wavefront slopes.
The problem of measuring the objective refractive error with an aberrometer has shown to be more elusive than expected. Here, the formalism of differential geometry is applied to develop a theoretical framework of refractive error sensing. At each point of the pupil, the local refractive error is given by the wavefront curvature, which is a 2 × 2 symmetric matrix, whose elements are directly re...
متن کاملThree-dimensional relationship between high-order root-mean-square wavefront error, pupil diameter, and aging.
We report root-mean-square (RMS) wavefront error (WFE) for individual aberrations and cumulative high-order (HO) RMS WFE for the normal human eye as a function of age by decade and pupil diameter in 1 mm steps from 3 to 7 mm and determine the relationship among HO RMS WFE, mean age for each decade of life, and luminance for physiologic pupil diameters. Subjects included 146 healthy individuals ...
