Abstract

The angular resolution of telescope/refractor due to Type I diffracted photons is investigated. Indoor measurements of the angular resolution have reached 16.5 milliarcseconds, an improvement of 50 x towards diffraction limit. A novel concept is proposed to eliminate the seeing effects of atmospheric turbulence and to impulse the deep space investigations. Imaging through the atmosphere is improved by QCE image sensor due Type I diffracted photons with particle behavior. Sirius (α Canis Majoris) and Spica (α Virginis) passage measurements have indicated seeing conditions estimated at 11.4 milliarcseconds. The insensitivity of QCE image sensor to seeing conditions is analyzed and discussed.

期刊介绍： Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
