Abstract
We present a liquid crystal method of correcting the phase of an aberrated wavefront using a spatial light modulator. A simple and efficient lab model has been demonstrated for wavefront correction. The crux of a wavefront correcting system in an adaptive optics system lies in the speed and the image quality that can be achieved. The speeds and the accuracy of wavefront representation using Zernike polynomials have been presented using a very fast method of computation.
