Example Embodiment

[0033] First introduce the optical structure and basic principle of the Hartmann-Shark sensor. Such as figure 2 Shown is the measurement process of Hartmann-Shark sensor and the distribution of light spots on the target surface of the photodetector. The Hartmann-Shark sensor uses the microlens array 1 to divide the wavefront of the incident signal into sub-apertures. The optical signal in each sub-aperture is focused on the photodetector 2 behind it, and the energy on the target surface of the photodetector 2 is used. The distribution is calculated for the centroid position.

[0034] figure 2 The dotted line in the left middle shows the propagation of the sensor's reference light wavefront. The light spot distribution of the dot matrix formed by the wavefront after being collected by the photodetector 2 can be determined by figure 1 It can be seen from the right that the box represents the sub-aperture divided by each micro lens, and the symbol in the figure Represents the la...

Abstract

The invention relates to an absolute calibration method of using spherical wave front for calibrating a Hartmann-Shack sensor, and the calibration method can very accurately calibrate physical parameters and measurement precision of the Hartmann-Shack sensor. The absolute calibration method is characterized in that the absolute calibration method utilizes the corresponding relationship between thespherical wave front and output of the sensor for precisely calibrating the physical parameters of the sensor, and uses the spherical wave front to replace plane wave front used in the traditional calibration to be used as a reference beam for calibrating the Hartmann-Shack sensor. As the radii of curvature of the spherical wave front and lattice image features output by the sensor are in one-to-one relationship, actual values of the physical parameters of the Hartmann-Shack sensor can be precisely calibrated by precisely controlling the radius of curvature of the spherical wave front to be measured and mutually linking information of the images output by the sensor when in different radii of curvature with the corresponding information of the radius of curvature of the spherical wave front. The spherical wave front is used for replacing the plane wave front to be used as the reference beam for removing systematic errors; as the self-errors of the plane wave front are eliminated, theabsolute calibration method is conductive to improving the measurement precision of the Hartmann-Shack sensor.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a calibration method of Hartmann-Shark sensor, in particular to a calibration method of Hartmann-Shark sensor using spherical wavefront absolute calibration. Background technique [0002] The Hartmann-Shark wavefront sensor is an instrument that can detect the shape of the wavefront. It has been widely used in adaptive optics, optical mirror detection, medical instruments, and laser beam diagnosis. As a measuring instrument, the Hartmann-Shark wavefront sensor must be calibrated before it is used. There are two main tasks to be completed in the calibration. First, the system errors such as assembly errors and processing errors of optical components are eliminated through calibration; Second, calibrate the physical parameters of the Hartmann-Shake sensor to determine the proportional coefficient from the restored wavefront to the measured wavefront. [0003] In the traditional Hartmann-Shark wavefront sensor calibration method, the el...
