Compact Adaptive Optics Systems 2 (CAOS-II)
Abstract
This report results from a contract tasking Heriot-Watt University as follows: The contractor will (1) determine the conditions for construction of a null sensor using the phase-diversity principle and implemented using a diffractive optical element (DOE) and a single detector plane; (2) investigate and, if possible, quantify necessary conditions for the use of a null sensor based on phase-diversity and the use of DOEs; (3) investigate whether a null sensor based on phase diversity and DOEs can be used to separate isoplanatic and anisoplanatic wavefront distortions.
