Principles of Adaptive Optics describes the foundations, principles, and applications of
adaptive optics (AO) and its enabling technologies. This leading textbook addresses the …

<? TeX 0pt-45pc?> Adaptive optics (AO) correction based on pyramid wavefront sensors (P-
WFSs)<? TeX 20pt-45pc?> has been successfully implemented in several instruments for …

Adaptive lenses based on fluid-filled polymer membranes allow for great simplification of
optical systems providing large focal length variation and reduction of size, weight, and …

Adaptive optics (AO) is an established technique to measure and compensate for optical
aberrations. One of its key components is the wavefront sensor (WFS), which is typically a …

The ever-growing demands of modern telecommunication systems in terms of data rates as
well as the impending threat of the increasing computing power of modern computers, make …

Small telescope systems are commonly used in various applications such as astronomy,
Earth observation and free-space optical communication. All those applications are …

Atmospheric turbulence is a fast disturbance that requires high control frequency. At the
same time, celestial objects are faint sources of light and thus WFSs often work in a low …

Pyramid wavefront sensors are widely used in adaptive optics systems, due to their
advantages in terms of sensitivity with respect to other wavefront sensors such as the Shack …
