Wavefront sensors and adaptive optics

Optical metrology

The HASO, our Shack Hartmann wavefront sensor, has become a tool of reference in optical metrology and laser beam characterization. The level of performance offered by the HASO allows to perform reliable characterization on any type of components, at any wavelengths, in any environment. Imagine Optic has the expertise to address any measurement challenges and provide customized solutions for scientific and industrial applications. Read more

High-power lasers

Adaptive optics is a critical technology for the operation of ultra-high intensity lasers. It allows to reach maximum intensity on target while protecting the installation. This application of AO is a core activity at Imagine optic. Since our creation, we have innovated on every part of this technology and are now delivering a mature and high performance AO solutions based on the association of the HASO wavefront sensor, ILAO Star mechanical deformable mirror and WaveTune/Pharao.

Bio-imaging

Optical components inside the microscope (objective, various lenses and mirrors) and the biological sample itself induce aberrations that are altering the performance of the microscope. Imagine Optic has developed a number of solutions where adaptive optics can be applied to improve the contrast and resolution in multiple fluorescence microscopy modalities. Read more

X-EUV

Optical metrology and adaptive optics in the X-EUV are extremely demanding because of the properties of the light in those short wavelengths. Since our creation, we have been innovating in that field and designed at-wavelength, X  & EUV Hartmann wavefront sensors dedicated to adaptive optics and optical characterization of light sources and components.
