论文摘要
为下一代自适应光学（AO）系统选择，金字塔波前传感器（PWFS）因其封闭的AO循环性能而被认可。随着新技术的出现，有必要探索改进它的新方法。微波动力电感探测器（MKID）是测量每个入射光子的到达时间和能量的光子计数设备，可为现有检测器提供新的功能和显着的AO性能益处。在开发了多波长PWFS模拟之后，我们研究了使用能量敏感探测器的好处，根据波长分析PWFS性能，并探索通过扩大波前传感器的带通来使用Fainter天然导向星的可能性。
Selected for the next generation of adaptive optics (AO) systems, the pyramid wavefront sensor (PWFS) is recognised for its closed AO loop performance. As new technologies are emerging, it is necessary to explore new methods to improve it. Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKID) are photon-counting devices that measure the arrival time and energy of each incident photon, providing new capabilities over existing detectors and significant AO performance benefits. After developing a multi-wavelength PWFS simulation, we study the benefits of using an energy sensitive detector, analyse the PWFS performance according to wavelength and explore the possibility of using fainter natural guide stars by widening the bandpass of the wavefront sensor.
