Zernike polynomials are widely used mathematical models of experimentally observed optical aberrations. Their useful mathematical properties, in particular their orthogonality, make them a ubiquitous basis set for solving various problems…
Optical imaging quality can be severely degraded by system and sample induced aberrations. Existing adaptive optics systems typically rely on iterative search algorithm to correct for aberrations and improve images. This study demonstrates…
If the optical system of a telescope is perturbed from rotational symmetry, the Zernike wavefront aberration coefficients describing that system can be expressed as a function of position in the focal plane using spin-weighted Zernike…
Optical aberrations significantly degrade image quality in microscopy, particularly when imaging deeper into samples. These aberrations arise from distortions in the optical wavefront and can be mathematically represented using Zernike…
Zernike polynomials are a basis of orthogonal polynomials on the unit disk that are a natural basis for representing smooth functions. They arise in a number of applications including optics and atmospheric sciences. In this paper, we…
The differential equation proposed by Frits Zernike to obtain a basis of polynomial orthogonal solutions on the the unit disk to classify wavefront aberrations in circular pupils, is shown to have a set of new orthonormal solution bases,…
Mobile photography is often limited by complex, lens-specific optical aberrations. While recent deep learning methods approach this as an end-to-end deblurring task, these "black-box" models lack explicit optical modeling and can…
Zernike polynomials are widely used in optics and ophthalmology due to their direct connection to classical optical aberrations. While orthogonal on the unit disk, their application to discrete data or non-circular domains--such as…
The increasing use of freeform optical surfaces raises the demand for optical design tools developed for generalized systems. In the design process surface-by-surface aberration contributions are of special interest. The expansion of the…
We propose and implement an aberration correction method for the creation of extended arrays of spots well beyond the isoplanatic region of any optical system. The method relies on an extensive calibration of aberrations in terms of Zernike…
We increase the scope of previous work on change of basis between finite bases of polynomials by defining ascending and descending bases and introducing three techniques for defining them from known ones. The minimum degrees of polynomials…
We present numerical simulations of the impact of laser beam wavefront aberrations in cold atom interferometers. We demonstrate that to reach accuracy at the mrad level, simulations cannot be based on a description of the retroreflection…
The influence of low-spatial frequency errors of an optical component of an imaging system on the point spread function can be quantified using Zernike polynomials. High-spatial frequency errors cause strong scattering due to which the…
Wavefront reconstruction is a critical component in various optical systems, including adaptive optics, interferometry, and phase contrast imaging. Traditional reconstruction methods often employ either the Cartesian (pixel) basis or the…
In theory of optical aberrations, an aberrated wavefront is represented by its coefficients in some orthogonal basis, for instance by Zernike polynomials. However, many wavefront measurement techniques implicitly approximate the gradient of…
Integration operational matrix methods based on Zernike polynomials are used to determine approximate solutions of a class of non-homogeneous partial differential equations (PDEs) of first and second order. Due to the nature of the Zernike…
The Zernike radial polynomials are a system of orthogonal polynomials over the unit interval with weight x. They are used as basis functions in optics to expand fields over the cross section of circular pupils. To calculate the roots of…
Zernike polynomials are widely used to describe the wavefront phase as they are well suited to the circular geometry of various optical apertures. Non-conventional optical systems, such as future large optical telescopes with highly…
Gaussian beams are asymptotically valid high frequency solutions concentrated on a single curve through the physical domain, and superposition of Gaussian beams provides a powerful tool to generate more general high frequency solutions to…
Technical optics with matter waves requires a universal description of three-dimensional traps, lenses, and complex matter-wave fields. In analogy to the two-dimensional Zernike expansion in beam optics, we present a three-dimensional…
