Description

Shack-Hartmann Wave-front Sensor is a popular instrument used to measure wavefront. And micro-lens array is the important component of it. In this paper we compared the reconstruction precision of square configuration sub-aperture with that of hexagon configuration through simulation. The result shows that the main factors influence the reconstruction precision is the layout of edge sub-apertures in both configurations. When the two figurations have the similar value area ratio of edge sub-apertures, hexagon configuration has higher reconstruction precision
