Development of an optical differentiation wavefront sensor based on binary pixelated transmission filters
2016
We demonstrate the performance of an optical differentiation
wavefront sensor(ODWS) relying on an optical system that images the
pupilto a camera. A binary pixelated transmission filter with a linear amplitude-transmission gradient is located in a far field of the
pupil. The ODWS uses the fluence data measured in the detection plane for two orthogonal orientations of the filter to determine
wavefront-slope data along the two corresponding directions in the
pupilplane. This technique allows for acquisition in real-time without
moving parts, providing high resolution,
high dynamic range, and achromatic
wavefrontsensing for astronomical imaging or metrology applications.
