Performance estimation of photonic integrated wavefront corrector for single-mode fiber coupling
Dhwanil Patel, Momen Diab, Ross Cheriton +3
Many modern astronomical instruments rely on the optimal coupling of starlight into single-mode fibers (SMFs). For ground-based telescopes, this coupling is limited by atmospheric…
Experimental demonstration of photonic phase correctors based on grating coupler arrays and thermo-optic shifters
Momen Diab, Ross Cheriton, Jacob Taylor +9
In ground-based astronomy, the ability to couple light into single-mode fibers (SMFs) is limited by atmospheric turbulence, which prohibits the use of many astrophotonic instrument…
2023 Astrophotonics Roadmap: pathways to realizing multi-functional integrated astrophotonic instruments
Nemanja Jovanovic, Pradip Gatkine, Narsireddy Anugu +77
Photonics offer numerous functionalities that can be used to realize astrophotonic instruments. The most spectacular example to date is the ESO Gravity instrument at the Very Large…
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…
