Focal-Plane Image and Beam Quality Sensors for Adaptive Optics
Control of adaptive optical elements for real-time wavefront phase distortion compensation is a rapidly growing field of research and technology development. Wavefront correction is essential for reliable long distance, near-ground laser communication as well as for imaging extended objects over large distances. Crucial to adaptively correcting the wavefront is a performance metric that can be ...
متن کاملLongwave IR focal-plane binary optics
In this paper we discuss a choice between the diffractive and refractive binary micro-lenses for the longwave IR FPA. To investigate diffraction on the micro-lenses we have used a numerical code based-on the rigorous electromagnetic theory, because neither geometrical optics nor thin element approach of scalar diffraction theory can correctly describe waveguide, shadowing and interference effec...
متن کاملMulti-Conjugate Adaptive Optics: a PSF study
A model of a multi-conjugate adaptive optics system is used to estimate the performance of such a system in the infrared and in the visible. It is shown that the corrected field of view can be largely increased, using a Gemini-like system. Residual anisoplanatism is studied, when different natural guide star schemes are used. In any case the field of view is significantly increased. A scheme to...
متن کاملA Wave Optics Propagation Code for Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics
We describe the purpose and sample results of a wave optics propagation simulation developed to study multi-conjugate adaptive optics for 4-10 m class telescopes. This code was developed to assess the impact of di raction e ects and a variety of implementation error sources upon the performance of the Gemini-South MCAO system. These e ects include: Hartmann sensing with extended and elongated l...
متن کاملFOCAL POINT AND FOCAL K-PLANE
This paper deals with the basic notions of k-tautimmersions . These notions come from two special cases; that is, tight and taut immersions. Tight and taut based on high and distance functions respectively and their basic notions are normal bundle, endpoint map, focal point, critical normal. We generalize hight and distance functions to cylindrical function and define basic notions of k-taut ...
