Comparison of optical vortex detection methods for use with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor.
In this paper we compare experimentally two methods of detecting optical vortices from Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWFS) data, the vortex potential and the contour sum methods. The experimental setup uses a spatial light modulator (SLM) to generate turbulent fields with vortices. In the experiment, many fields are generated and detected by a SHWFS, and data is analysed by the two vortex d...
متن کاملDetection of phase singularities with a Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor.
While adaptive optical systems are able to remove moderate wavefront distortions in scintillated optical beams, phase singularities that appear in strongly scintillated beams can severely degrade the performance of such an adaptive optical system. Therefore the detection of these phase singularities is an important aspect of strong-scintillation adaptive optics. We investigate the detection of ...
متن کاملMeasurement 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 کاملShack-Hartmann wavefront sensor precision and accuracy
The design of a wavefront sensor may be determined by the lenslet array and camera selection. There are numerous different applications for these sensors, requiring widely differing dynamic range and accuracy. Performance metrics are needed to evaluate candidate designs and to compare results. We have developed a standard methodology for measuring the repeatability, accuracy and dynamic range o...
متن کاملShack-Hartmann sensor improvement using optical binning.
We present a design improvement for a recently proposed type of Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor that uses a cylindrical (lenticular) lenslet array. The improved sensor design uses optical binning and requires significantly fewer detector pixels than the corresponding conventional or cylindrical Shack-Hartmann sensor, and so detector readout noise causes less signal degradation. Additionally, de...
