The MS-LAMBDA is a metrology source to use in your wavefront sensing setups.
It provides a spherical wavefront to create a perfect illumination path at any wavelength.
Wavefont sensors: General Overview A wavefront sensor is a optical device that plays a crucial role in measuring and analyzing the physical shape of light waves. Integral to fields ranging from astronomy to ophthalmology, these sensors detect and correct aberrations...
Introduction to Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor Origins and Evolution In the fascinating realm of optical science, the Shack-Hartmann Wavefront Sensor stands as a testament to human ingenuity. Originating from principles first conceptualized in the early 20th century,...
Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor . If Charles Darwin wasn't thinking of the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor when he wrote his theory of evolution in 1838, it's only because they hadn't yet been invented. Since then, wavefront analysis technique has followed a steady...
Flatness measurement. Sometimes surface flatness really matters... either you are trying to break speed record at Bonneville salt flats like Dave Spangler or producing flat substrates and mirrors for high demanding applications such as Mersen.Boostec® Silicon Carbide...
Optical Metrology: Unraveling the Science of Light Measurement Optical metrology, an intriguing field of scientific measurement, delves deep into the intricacies of light and its properties. In this article, we will explore the meaning of optical metrology, the...
CIAO is the go-to adaptive optics solution to mount on your telescope. By removing static aberrations due to mirrors misalignment, thermal or gravity effects and by reducing the effect of air turbulence, CIAO improves the resolution of images or increases the coupling efficiency in a single mode fiber. The SWIR version is tailored for Satellite Communication.
