Optimal SMF packing in photonic lanterns: comparing theoretical topology to practical packing arrangements

John J. Davenport, Momen Diab, Kalaga Madhav +1

Photonic lanterns rely on a close packed arrangement of single mode fibers, which are tapered and fused into one multi-mode core. Topologically optimal circle packing arrangements…

Simulations of mode-selective photonic lanterns for efficient coupling of starlight into the single-mode regime

Momen Diab, Aashana Tripathi, John Davenport +3

In ground-based astronomy, starlight distorted by the atmosphere couples poorly into single-mode waveguides but a correction by adaptive optics, even if only partial, can boost cou…

Starlight coupling through atmospheric turbulence into few-mode fibers and photonic lanterns in the presence of partial adaptive optics correction

Momen Diab, Aline N. Dinkelaker, John Davenport +2

Starlight corrupted by atmospheric turbulence cannot couple efficiently into astronomical instruments based on integrated optics as they require light of high spatial coherence to…
