The Structure Research and Design for Beam Steering and Adjustment in Golay3 Sparse-Aperture Imaging System by Junhong Qian, Xiaoyan Wu, Hewei Liu, Xiubao Hua, Ye Tao, Rongzhu Zhang

“…The piston error is controlled within 12 μm and the tilt error is controlled within 1200 μrad through the mechanical rough adjustment light path using a large-diameter collimation as the point light source, which realizes the confocality of three beams and mutual interference between two beams. With the USAF1951 resolution test panel display in the distance as the surface target, the adjustable piezoelectric ceramics control the piston error within 55 nm and the tilt error within 0.25 μrad, obtaining the surface target imaging result of the sparse aperture.…”

Evaluation of the optical performance for aspheric intraocular lenses in relation with tilt and decenter errors. by Jesús Pérez-Gracia, Alejandra Varea, Jorge Ares, Juan A Vallés, Laura Remón

“…Image quality was evaluated from the modulation transfer functions (MTFs), through-focus modulation transfer functions (TF-MTFs), root mean square (RMS) values of defocus, astigmatism and coma, and images of the United States Air Force (USAF) target were taken. A comparison with the optical performance of spherical IOLs has also been performed. …”
