Overcoming the low signal-to-noise problem for hybrid mode-selective photonic lantern-based wavefront correction using machine learning
Nathan K Long, Barnaby Norris, Daniel S Dahl +10
Hybrid mode-selective photonic lanterns transform an input complex point-spread function into several single-mode outputs, where a selected core feeds the fundamental mode to a pho…
