X-ray wavefront characterization with two-dimensional wavefront sensors: shearing interferometers and Hartmann wavefront sensors
Phase reconstructions from a two-dimensional shearing inter-ferometer, based on two orthogonal phase gratings in a single plane, and a Hartmann sensor are compared. Design alternatives for both wavefront sensors are given, and simulated performance of both the two-dimensional x-ray shearing interferometer and Hartmann wavefront sensor are presented for two different phase profiles. The first co...
متن کاملPhoton counting arrays for AO wavefront sensors
Future wavefront sensors for AO on large telescopes will require a large number of pixels and must operate at high frame rates. Unfortunately for CCDs, there is a readout noise penalty for operating faster, and this noise can add up rather quickly when considering the number of pixels required for the extended shape of a sodium laser guide star observed with a large telescope. Imaging photon co...
متن کاملComparing wavefront-optimized to wavefront-guided LASIK
equivalent (MRSE) results were also similar, with 93% of wavefront-guided patients within 0.5 D of target, and 94% of wavefront optimized patients reaching this level. No eyes in this study lost 2 lines of BSCVA; in fact, most eyes gained BSCVA after surgery. In the wavefront-optimized group, 58% of eyes gained one line or more of vision compared with 62% of eyes in the wavefront-guided cohort....
متن کاملPerformance and Evaluation of Interferometric based Wavefront Sensors
Adaptive optics (AO) is a technology used to improve the performance of optical systems by reducing the effect of wavefront distortions. It is used in astronomical telescopes and laser communication systems to remove the effects of atmospheric distortion. An AO system basically consists of three main components, a wavefront sensor, a wavefront corrector and a control system. A new wavefront sen...
متن کاملWavefront Aberrations
Lower order aberrations are another way to describe refractive errors: myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism, correctible with glasses, contact lenses or refractive surgery. Lower order aberrations is a term used in wavefront technology to describe second-order Zernike polynomials. Second-order Zernike terms represent the conventional aberrations defocus (myopia, hyperopia and astigmatism). Lower o...
