Ocular accommodation and wavelength: The effect of longitudinal chromatic aberration on the stimulus-response curve. (2024)
Journal Article
Fernandez-Alonso, M., Finch, A. P., Love, G. D., & Read, J. C. A. (2024). Ocular accommodation and wavelength: The effect of longitudinal chromatic aberration on the stimulus-response curve. Journal of Vision, 24(2), Article 11. https://doi.org/10.1167/jov.24.2.11

The longitudinal chromatic aberration (LCA) of the eye creates a chromatic blur on the retina that is an important cue for accommodation. Although this mechanism can work optimally in broadband illuminants such as daylight, it is not clear how the sy...

Atmospheric optical turbulence measurements at varying elevation angles (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Westerby-Griffin, L., Osborn, J., Farley, O. J. D., Griffiths, R., & Love, G. D. (2023, January). Atmospheric optical turbulence measurements at varying elevation angles. Paper presented at Free-Space Laser Communications XXXV, San Francisco, United States

Creating Correct Blur and its Effect on Accommodation (2018)
Journal Article
Cholewiak, S., Love, G., & Banks, M. (2018). Creating Correct Blur and its Effect on Accommodation. Journal of Vision, 18(9), 1-29. https://doi.org/10.1167/18.9.1

Blur occurs naturally when the eye is focused at one distance and an object is presented at another distance. Computer-graphics engineers and vision scientists often wish to create display images that reproduce such depthdependent blur, but their met...

Generating artificial reference images for open loop correlation wavefront sensors (2018)
Journal Article
Townson, M., Love, G., & Saunter, C. (2018). Generating artificial reference images for open loop correlation wavefront sensors. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 479(2), 1595-1602. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty1362

Shack–Hartmann wavefront sensors for both solar and laser guide star adaptive optics (with elongated spots) need to observe extended objects. Correlation techniques have been successfully employed to measure the wavefront gradient in solar adaptive o...

Design, manufacture, and evaluation of prototype telescope windows for use in low-vision aids (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Young, L., Robertson, D., Love, G., Girkin, J., Cowie, E., Bourgenot, C., & Courtial, J. (2017). Design, manufacture, and evaluation of prototype telescope windows for use in low-vision aids. In A. J. Davis, C. F. Hahlweg, & J. R. Mulley (Eds.), Novel optical systems design and optimization XX. https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2272992

Pixellated Optics, a class of optical devices which preserve phase front continuity only over small sub areas of the device, allow for a range of uses that would not otherwise be possible. One potential use is as Low Vision Aids (LVAs), where they ar... Read More about Design, manufacture, and evaluation of prototype telescope windows for use in low-vision aids.

Why do animal eyes have pupils of different shapes? (2015)
Journal Article
Banks, M. S., Sprague, W. W., Schmoll, J., Parnell, J. A., & Love, G. D. (2015). Why do animal eyes have pupils of different shapes?. Science Advances, 1(7), Article e1500391. https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.1500391

There is a striking correlation between terrestrial species’ pupil shape and ecological niche (that is, foraging mode and time of day they are active). Species with vertically elongated pupils are very likely to be ambush predators and active day and... Read More about Why do animal eyes have pupils of different shapes?.

Realtime wavefront sensing in a SPIM microscope, and active aberration tracking (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Taylor, J. M., Saunter, C. D., Bourgenot, C., Girkin, J. M., & Love, G. D. (2015). Realtime wavefront sensing in a SPIM microscope, and active aberration tracking. In T. G. Bifano, J. Kubby, & S. Gigan (Eds.), . https://doi.org/10.1117/12.2080061

Adaptive optics (AO) can potentially allow high resolution imaging deep inside living tissue, mitigating against the loss of resolution due to aberrations caused by overlying tissue. Closed-loop AO correction is particularly attractive for moving tis... Read More about Realtime wavefront sensing in a SPIM microscope, and active aberration tracking.

Quantitative High Dynamic Range Beam Proling for Fluorescence Microscopy (2014)
Journal Article
Mitchell, T., Saunter, C., O'Nions, W., Girkin, J., & Love, G. (2014). Quantitative High Dynamic Range Beam Proling for Fluorescence Microscopy. Review of Scientific Instruments, 85(10), Article 103713. https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4899208

Modern developmental biology relies on optically-sectioning uorescence microscope techniques to produce non-destructive in-vivo images of developing specimens at high resolution in three dimensions. As optimal performance of these techniques is relia... Read More about Quantitative High Dynamic Range Beam Proling for Fluorescence Microscopy.

AO modal optimization in a live, beating zebrafish heart (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
