Deep Learning-Based Coarse Alignment and Cophasing of a Distributed-Aperture Telescope. Application to the Small ExoLife Finder (SELF)
N. Arteaga-Marrero, J. Iborra-Luis, A. Padrón-Brito +1
The ExoLife Finder (ELF), a 35--50-meter-class Fizeau interferometric telescope, was designed to detect biosignatures on exoplanets through direct imaging. The Small ExoLife Finder…

Focal-plane wavefront sensing with moderately broadband light using a short multi-mode fiber
Auxiliadora Padrón-Brito, Natalia Arteaga-Marrero, Ian Cunnyngham +1
We propose a focal-plane wavefront sensor (FPWFS) based on a short multimode fiber (MMF) capable of operating under moderately broadband illumination. By coupling the aberrated foc…

Storing single photons emitted by a quantum memory on a highly excited Rydberg state
Emanuele Distante, Pau Farrera, Auxiliadora Padrón-Brito +3
Strong interaction between two single photons is a long standing and important goal in quantum photonics. This would enable a new regime of nonlinear optics and unlock several appl…
