The invention belongs to the field of
adaptive optics, and discloses a transitional
grey level driving method for increasing response speed of a
liquid crystal wave-front corrector. The transitional
grey level driving method is characterized in that phase modulated quantity of the
liquid crystal wave-front corrector is set to range from 1.2 wavelengths to 1.6 wavelengths, a
grey level of a
transitional phase is set for an optional group of
initial phase and target phase on pixels, the grey level is larger than difference of the
initial phase and the target phase, the characteristic that
phase response speed of
liquid crystal at a front stage is fast is adopted, the position corresponding to a target is reached, and at the moment, a grey level corresponding to the target phase is applied to the target so as to keep a target phase value. The key of the transitional grey level driving method is measurement to a transitional grey level array GT by the liquid
crystal front-wave corrector, an initial
grey scale and a transitional
grey scale corresponding to a target
grey scale are solved in real time according to the GT, accordingly, the liquid
crystal front-wave corrector can be driven by the transitional grey level to quickly respond in place, the target grey scale is applied, wave front is stabilized, and driving of the next period can be carried out.
