Single-shot hyperspectral wavefront sensing is essential for applications like spatio-spectral coupling metrology in high power laser or fast material dispersion imaging. Under broadband illumination, traditional wavefront sensors assume an…
Wavefront sensing is a set of techniques providing efficient means to ascertain the shape of an optical wavefront or its deviation from an ideal reference. Due to its wide dynamical range and high optical efficiency, the Shack-Hartmann is…
We present a novel method for multi-color wavefront measurement of high-order harmonic generation beams using the Talbot effect, validated both theoretically and experimentally for the first time. Each harmonic maintains a unique wavefront…
The term wavefront sensor refers to the entire class of devices capable of measuring the optical wavefront of the incoming beam. Although numerous solutions have been proposed so far, recent advances in structured light have opened new…
Dynamic wavefront aberrations negatively impact a wide range of optical applications including astronomy, optical free-space telecommunications and bio-imaging. Wavefront errors can be compensated by an adaptive optics system comprised of a…
We introduce a novel application of the Hartmann sensor, traditionally designed for wavefront sensing, to measure the coherence properties of optical signals. By drawing an analogy between the coherence matrix and the density matrix of a…
The classic Hartmann test consists of an array of holes to reconstruct the wavefront from the local deviation of each focal spot, and Shack-Hartmann sensor improved that with an array of microlenses. This array of microlenses imposes…
Wavefront sensing in solar adaptive-optics is currently done with correlating Shack-Hartmann sensors, although the spatial- and temporal-resolutions of the phase measurements are then limited by the extremely fast computing required to…
Wavefront sensing is a widely-used non-interferometric, single-shot, and quantitative technique providing the spatial-phase of a beam. The phase is obtained by integrating the measured wavefront gradient. Complex and random wavefields…
In astronomy or biological imaging, refractive index inhomogeneities of e.g. atmosphere or tissues induce optical aberrations which degrade the desired information hidden behind the medium. A standard approach consists in measuring these…
Imaging both the polarization and the wavefront of a light beam is a complex task that typically demands several intensity acquisitions. Furthermore, sequential acquisition solutions are incompatible with the monitoring of ultra-fast…
Commonly used wavefront sensors, the Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor and the pyramid wavefront sensor, for example, have large dynamic range or high sensitivity, trading one regime for the other. A new type of wavefront sensor is being…
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…
Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors (SHWS) are generally used to measure the wavefront curvature of light beams. Measurement accuracy and the sensitivity of these sensors are important factors for better wavefront sensing. In this study, we…
The weak measurement wavefront sensor detects the phase gradient of light like the Shack-Hartmann sensor does. However, the use of one thin birefringent crystal to displace light beams results in a wavelength-dependent phase difference…
We present a novel way of wavefront sensing using a commercially available, continuous-wave time-of-flight camera with QVGA-resolution. This CMOS phase camera is capable of sensing externally modulated light sources with frequencies up to…
The wavefront measurement of a light beam is a complex task, which often requires a series of spatially resolved intensity measurements. For instance, a detector array may be used to measure the local phase gradient in the transverse plane…
In astronomy and microscopy, distortions in the wavefront affect the dynamic range of a high contrast imaging system. These aberrations are either imposed by a turbulent medium such as the atmosphere, by static or thermal aberrations in the…
We demonstrate a wavefront sensor based on the compressive sensing, single-pixel camera. Using a high-resolution spatial light modulator (SLM) as a variable waveplate, we weakly couple an optical field's transverse-position and polarization…
High harmonic generation (HHG) in solids has emerged as a powerful spectroscopic method for resolving ultrafast electron dynamics and band structure properties across a wide range of materials. However, quantitative HHG studies require…
