The Space Coronagraph Optical Bench (SCoOB): 7. design, fabrication, and first light for a self-coherent camera
Kevin Derby, Kian Milani, Grace C. Hathaway +10
The 2020 Decadal Survey on Astronomy and Astrophysics tasked future space observatories with the goal of detecting and characterizing a large sample of Earth-like exoplanets. To ac…
Ultrafast laser stress figuring for accurate deformation of thin mirrors
Brandon D. Chalifoux, Kevin A. Laverty, Ian J. Arnold
Fabricating freeform mirrors relies on accurate optical figuring processes capable of arbitrarily modifying low-spatial frequency height without creating higher-spatial frequency e…
Stress tensor mesostructures for freeform shaping of thin substrates
Youwei Yao, Brandon Chalifoux, Ralf Heilmann +1
Stress-induced shaping, which deforms thin substrates utilizing stressed surface coatings, has enabled and enhanced a host of applications in past decades. Owing to the touchless f…
Optical design of diffraction-limited X-ray telescopes
Brandon D. Chalifoux, Ralf K. Heilmann, Herman L. Marshall +1
Astronomical imaging with micro-arcsecond (as) angular resolution could enable breakthrough scientific discoveries. Previously-proposed as X-ray imager designs have been inte…
