TY - JOUR A1 - Kazasidis, Orestis A1 - Verpoort, Sven A1 - Wittrock, Ulrich T1 - Aberration balancing using an image-sharpness metric T2 - J. Opt. Soc. Am. A N2 - Image-sharpness metrics can be used to optimize optical systems and to control wavefront sensorless adaptive optics systems. We show that for an aberrated system, the numerical value of an image-sharpness metric can be improved by adding specific aberrations. The optimum amplitudes of the additional aberrations depend on the power spectral density of the spatial frequencies of the object.
