Correction of static and non-common path aberrations in an adaptive optics system using inherent calibration data

• For low-order adaptive optics systems, a method that is able to correct for system aberrations in the final focal plane is presented. The paper presents a novel figure of merit, corresponding to the integrated non-normalized tip-tilt-free optical transfer function. The inherent singular value decomposition modal content of the interaction matrix is used to optimize this figure of merit. The method has proven to be stable and robust, providing a simple mean to facilitate diffraction limited imaging in an experimental setup for ophthalmic applications.
