Additional information

This paper reports for the first time a hardware solution for equipping a Shack Hartmann (SH)- wavefront sensor (WFS) with principles of time or spectral domain interferometry to deliver depth resolved WFS data. This technology was protected by a patent (US20110134436, recently granted) and research on this subject became part of the ERC Advanced Grant (249889) awarded to Podoleanu. In comparison with existing software solutions of coherence gating applied to an WFS, which are slow, the solutions described in this paper have made it possible to achieve real time measurement of aberration.
