Lateral-effect devices provide position information which is linear and independent of the intensity profile of the illumination, unlike bicell types which produce nonlinear position information with most intensity profiles. Furthermore the linearity properties shown in equition 3 are independent of the symmetrical defocusing that may occur in optical systems.
