摘要:

Zernike 波前传感器(ZWFS)是用于测量入射波前相位的最灵敏光学系统之一,其光子效率接近基本极限。这一特性,加上它能够轻松测量相位不连续性的事实,使其在地面以及未来天基仪器的各种波前控制应用中得到广泛采用。尽管具有这些优势,ZWFS 仍面临一项重大挑战:其动态范围极其有限,这使得它在地基运行中尤其具有挑战性。为解决这一限制,一种方法是在通用自适应光学(AO)系统之后使用 ZWFS;然而,即使在这种情况下,动态范围仍然是一个令人担忧的问题。本文研究了 ZWFS 的两种光学配置:传统装置及其相移对应装置,后者会生成望远镜光瞳的两幅不同图像。我们评估了两种配置下多种重建技术的性能,涵盖从传统线性重建器到基于梯度下降的方法。评估包括在 UCSC 的 Santa cruz Extreme Adaptive optics Lab(SEAL)实验台上进行的仿真和实验测试。研究结果表明,本文引入的某些创新重建技术显著提升了 ZWFS 的动态范围,尤其是在使用相移版本时。

英文摘要:

The Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) stands out as one of the most sensitive optical systems for measuring the phase of an incoming wavefront, reaching photon efficiencies close to the fundamental limit. This quality, combined with the fact that it can easily measure phase discontinuities, has led to its widespread adoption in various wavefront control applications, both on the ground but also for future space-based instruments. Despite its advantages, the ZWFS faces a significant challenge due to its extremely limited dynamic range, making it particularly challenging for ground-based operations. To address this limitation, one approach is to use the ZWFS after a general adaptive optics (AO) system; however, even in this scenario, the dynamic range remains a concern. This paper investigates two optical configurations of the ZWFS: the conventional setup and its phase-shifted counterpart, which generates two distinct images of the telescope pupil. We assess the performance of various reconstruction techniques for both configurations, spanning from traditional linear reconstructors to gradient-descent-based methods. The evaluation encompasses simulations and experimental tests conducted on the Santa cruz Extreme Adaptive optics Lab (SEAL) bench at UCSC. Our findings demonstrate that certain innovative reconstruction techniques introduced in this study significantly enhance the dynamic range of the ZWFS, particularly when utilizing the phase-shifted version.
