Estimation of Zernike polynomials for a highly focused electromagnetic field using polarimetric mapping images and neural networks

In this communication, we present a method to estimate the aberrated wavefront at the focal plane of a vectorial diffraction system. In contrast to the phase, the polarization state of optical fields is simply measurable. In this regard, we introduce an alternative approach for determining the aberr...
