WAVEFRONT SENSORS WITH IRREGULAR APERTURE MASKS, DIFFUSERS, AND CAMERAS, AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING THE SAME
A wavefront sensor for measuring a wavefront that includes an aperture mask configured to receive incident light, the aperture mask comprising a plurality of apertures irregularly spaced and arranged in a plurality of sub-windows that respectively transmit sub-beams of the incident light. A diffuser can receive the sub-beams transmitted by the plurality of apertures. A controller of the sensor is configured to identify measured sub-beams by convolving the sub-beams imaged on the diffuser with a map of the plurality of apertures; and measure the wavefront of the incident light based on changes in position of the sub-beams in a digital image of the diffuser relative to both reference positions and neighboring sub-beams.
A wavefront sensor is disclosed for measuring a wavefront. The sensor can include a mask configured to receive incident light of the wavefront and including irregularly spaced apertures that respectively transmit sub-beams of the incident light. A lenslet array can be positioned to receive sub-beams of the incident light from the mask so that individual lenslets of the lenslet array collect and focus the sub-beams of incident light. A camera can be included and positioned in a focal plane of the mask and the lenslet array, the camera configured to obtain a digital image of the lenslet array and/or the mask related to the incident light. A system controller can measure the wavefront of the incident light based at least partially on the digital image.
