HASO SWIR I High Performance SWIR Wavefront Sensor 0.9-1.7 μm

SWIR Wavefront Sensor

The HASO SWIR wavefront sensor utilizes an InGaAs camera, providing superior accuracy, a broad dynamic range, and high-speed performance across the SWIR 0.9-1.7 µm wavelength range. Tailored for applications in optical metrology and adaptive optics, the HASO SWIR stands out with key features:

• Achieving λ/100 rms accuracy within the 0.9 – 1.7 µm wavelength range
• Simultaneous and independent measurement of both phase and intensity
• True absolute measurement capability
• A large dynamic range to accommodate varied optical conditions
• High acquisition frequency, reaching up to 99 Hz

The ideal tool for optical metrology and adaptive optics applications such as long-range communication.

• λ/100 rms absolute accuracy for incoherent and λ/50 rms for coherent light on a huge dynamic range (see the graph below)
• Measurement more than 150 Zernike polynomials with individual accuracy better than 5 nm rms
