FIRST-PL: Commissioning the first visible photonic lantern spectrograph for sub-diffraction-limit astronomy on Subaru/SCExAO
Sebastien Vievard, Elsa Huby, Sylvestre Lacour +18
FIRST-PL (Fibered Imager foR a Single Telescope - Photonic Lantern) is a newly commissioned visible-light instrument on Subaru/SCExAO achieving spectroscopy below the diffraction l…
Empirical verification of principal mode orthogonality and relative phase calibration in photonic lanterns
Adam K. Taras, Barnaby R. M. Norris, Christopher Betters +5
The paper experimentally characterizes the principal modes of a photonic lantern using digital off‑axis holography, showing they are highly orthogonal and proposing ways to use thi…
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…
Seidr update: photonic 'black magic' for high-contrast interferometry using kernel-nulling and photonic lanterns
Nathan K Long, Daniel S Dahl, Christopher H Betters +13
Seidr is a new interferometric beam combiner within the Asgard Suite, utilizing infrastructure common to the BIFROST instrument at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer. Seidr co…
PEEPSS: Photonic-Enabled ExoPlanet Spectroscopic Sensor for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Genevieve Markees, Stephen S. Eikenberry, Rodrigo Amezcua-Correa +5
The next few years will be critical for technology development for Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) in its mission to search for and characterize extrasolar planets. To achieve i…
Wavelength-Dependent Evolution of Full-Field Transfer Matrices in Photonic Lanterns
Caleb Dobias, Miguel Römer, Swati Bhargava +10
A fiber-based photonic lantern can couple an array of single-mode optical fibers to the guided modes of a multimode fiber, with the mapping between the single-mode fibers and guide…
