摘要

We propose a convolutional neural network–based algorithm for retrieving the wavefront shape of a beam using in-focus and out-of-focus intensity distributions. The neural network is trained on numerically generated data. In numerical experiments, the trained model enabled wavefront shape reconstruction with a relative error below 20% for root-mean-square (rms) wavefront distortion in the range of (0.05–0.25)λ, where λ is the radiation wavelength. In a physical experiment conducted on the PEARL laser facility, for a beam with an 18 cm aperture, equal to one-quarter of the focal length, the relative error was approximately 40% for rms wavefront distortion of 0.4λ.
