    Area of Science:

    • Optical Engineering
    • Wavefront Sensing
    • Interferometry

    Background:

    • Traditional radial shearing interferometry often employs complex telescope lens systems.
    • These systems can introduce aberrations, complicating alignment and limiting performance, especially with incoherent light sources.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a simplified cyclic radial shearing interferometer for single-shot wavefront sensing.
    • To enhance fringe contrast and improve wavefront reconstruction accuracy.
    • To demonstrate a compact and easily aligned system suitable for various light sources.

    Main Methods:

    • A single lens is utilized to generate two diverging radial shearing beams, replacing conventional telescope optics.
    • A polarization pixelated CMOS camera enables spatial phase-shifting for single-image phase extraction.
    • The system design focuses on minimizing aberrations for improved fringe contrast.

    Main Results:

    • The modified system offers convenient adjustment of the radial shearing ratio, enhanced compactness, and practical alignment.
    • Fringe contrast was improved by at least 0.1 compared to conventional methods.
    • Wavefronts were accurately reconstructed with a root-mean-squared wavefront error below 0.071λ, irrespective of light coherence.

    Conclusions:

    • The simple cyclic radial shearing interferometer provides a robust and efficient solution for single-shot wavefront sensing.
    • The design effectively enhances fringe contrast and achieves high wavefront reconstruction accuracy.
    • This method offers significant advantages in system simplicity, alignment, and applicability with both coherent and incoherent light.
