    Area of Science:

    • Optics and Photonics
    • Wavefront Sensing
    • Holography

    Background:

    • Holographic wavefront sensors (HWFS) enable direct calculation of Zernike coefficients from spot intensity ratios.
    • HWFS response is sensitive to detector position, size, and aberrations, impacting accuracy.
    • Current methods using integral intensity over small windows are susceptible to these dependencies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a more robust method for measuring spot intensities in HWFS.
    • To reduce the HWFS response curve's dependency on detector window selection.
    • To improve the accuracy and reliability of wavefront sensing.

    Main Methods:

    • Proposed a novel intensity measurement technique using thresholding to select effective pixels.
    • Employed a weighted average intensity calculation within a selected window for each spot.
    • Validated the method through numerical simulations and experimental recording of a HWFS.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method significantly reduces the HWFS response curve's dependency on detector window selection.
    • Numerical simulations confirmed the improved robustness compared to integral intensity methods.
    • Experimental results demonstrated the HWFS's capability in detecting Zernike terms in aberrated beams.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed pixel selection and weighted averaging method offers a more stable and accurate approach to HWFS intensity measurement.
    • This technique enhances the reliability of Zernike coefficient calculation from holographic wavefront sensors.
    • The study validates the practical application of the improved HWFS for analyzing aberrated light beams.
