We are very happy to announce that our recent paper: "Cascading optofluidic phase modulators for performance enhancement in refractive adaptive optics" has made it on the title page of SPIE, the international not-for-profit professional society for optics and photonics technology. "Researchers from the University of Freiburg, Germany, have made a significant advance in AO microscopy through the demonstration of a new AO module comprising two deformable phase plates (DPPs)." T

A lot of application scenarios from life-sciences to laser processing may require multiple wavefront modulators for extended amplitude and higher fidelity of aberration correction. However, this comes at the significant cost of increasing the complexity of the systems. Our team member Pouya Rajaeipour went into detail explaining how it is possible to simplify this otherwise big hassle requirement by one Key USP of our Deformable Phase Plate: Stackability enabled by its trans

Our team has published a new paper in OSA's journal of "Applied Optics", demonstrating a novel method for extending the correctable FoV by AO for microscopy. The method, called numerical field-segmentation, is specifically meant to overcome the issues associated with field-dependent aberrations in pupil plane wavefront correction systems, a well-known limitation of AO systems. Our method is an alternative to "conjugate AO" (which requires an individual wavefront modulator for

The team presented our technology and latest developments at the International Workshop on Adaptive Optics for Industry and Medicine (AOIM XII). The workshop and conference explores recent developments, current practices, and future trends in adaptive optics and closely related fields. We received very positive feedback on our optofluidic refractive wavefront modulator prototype from many in the audience and could discuss several emerging applications such as Microscopy, High
