Demonstration of simultaneous PIAA- coronagraphy and wavefront sensing using a single metasurface-based focal-plane optic

Dhwanil Patel, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Skyler Palatnick +23

Controlling residual wavefront aberrations downstream of an extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) system is a major challenge in high-contrast imaging. These aberrations produce quasi-sta…

Long-term performance of the MLR-TT sensor: two-photon polymerization validation in the telescope environment

Robert J. Harris, Philipp Hottinger, Jonathan Crass +2

We report on the long-term optical performance of a two-photon polmerized microlens ring tip-tilt sensor. The study is backed by repeated measurements over the last six years, sinc…

Millimetre-scale spectrographs for next-generation photonic instrumentation

Emily Ronson, Robert J. Harris, Ariadna Calcines Rosario +1

We present a set of ultra-compact spectrographs fabricated using two-photon polymerisation, each under 1 mm in length and printed directly onto an optical fiber. This fully integra…

HRMOS: A High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph for the VLT

Laura Magrini, Thomas Bensby, Sofia Randich +174

This White Paper presents the scientific rationale and instrument concept for HRMOS (High-Resolution Multi-Object Spectrograph), a next-generation instrument proposed for the ESO V…

On-sky results for the novel integrated micro-lens ring tip-tilt sensor

Philipp Hottinger, Robert J. Harris, Jonathan Crass +16

We present the first on-sky results of the micro-lens ring tip-tilt (MLR-TT) sensor. This sensor utilizes a 3D printed micro-lens ring feeding six multi-mode fibers to sense misali…

3D-M3: High-spatial resolution spectroscopy with extreme AO and 3D printed micro-lenslets

Theodoros Anagnos, Mareike Trappen, Blaise C. Kuo Tiong +20

By combining IFS with ExAO we are now able to resolve objects close to the diffraction-limit of large telescopes, exploring new science cases. We introduce an IFU designed to coupl…
