Left: theoretical PSF for an ideal co-phased instrument (ϕ_k − ϕ_l = 0 ∀(k,l) ). The DR is equal to 5.6 × 10⁴. Right: point spread function of the THT test bench taking into account all experimental intrinsic defects except for the phasing error. Amplitude of each defect (apodization error, detector noise, differential effect of light polarization, etc.) was evaluated experimentally. The image was then obtained thanks to a Monte Carlo statistical approach.
