Wavefront sensing is a very powerful technique whose capability in the field of diffraction-limited imaging through turbulence has been demonstrated. The ultimate performance of a Hartmann-Shack wavefront sensor is analysed and used to define a detector choice strategy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
