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…
Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detector (SNSPD) with 3D-Printed Free-Form Microlenses
Yilin Xu, Artem Kuzmin, Emanuel Knehr +6
We present an approach to increase the effective light-receiving area of superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors (SNSPD) by means of free-form microlenses that are printed…
Hardwire-Configurable Photonic Integrated Circuits Enabled by 3D Nano-Printing
Tobias Hoose, Matthias Blaicher, Juned Nassir Kemal +7
Photonic integrated circuits (PIC) currently rely on application-specific designs that are geared towards a particular functionality. Development of such application-specific PIC r…
Focal Plane Tip-Tilt Sensing for Improved Single-Mode Fiber Coupling using a 3D-printed Microlens-Ring
Philipp Hottinger, Robert J. Harris, Philipp-Immanuel Dietrich +11
Modern extreme adaptive optics (AO) systems achieving diffraction-limited performance open up new possibilities for instrumentation. Especially important for the fields of spectros…
3D-Printed Optics for Wafer-Scale Probing
Mareike Trappen, Matthias Blaicher, Philipp-Immanuel Dietrich +5
Mass production of photonic integrated circuits requires high-throughput wafer-level testing. We demonstrate that optical probes equipped with 3D-printed elements allow for efficie…
Micro-lens array as tip-tilt sensor for single-mode fiber coupling
Philipp Hottinger, Robert J. Harris, Philipp-Immanuel Dietrich +8
We introduce a design for a tip-tilt sensor with integrated single-mode fiber coupling for use with the front-end prototype of the iLocater spectrograph at the Large Binocular Tele…
