Real-time experimental demonstrations of a photonic lantern wavefront sensor
Jonathan W. Lin, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Yinzi Xin +12
The direct imaging of an Earth-like exoplanet will require sub-nanometric wavefront control across large light-collecting apertures, to reject host starlight and detect the faint p…
Spectroastrometry and Imaging Science with Photonic Lanterns on Extremely Large Telescopes
Yoo Jung Kim, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Jonathan Lin +11
Photonic lanterns (PLs) are tapered waveguides that gradually transition from a multi-mode fiber geometry to a bundle of single-mode fibers. In astronomical applications, PLs can e…
Demonstration of a photonic lantern focal-plane wavefront sensor: measurement of atmospheric wavefront error modes and low wind effect in the non-linear regime
Jin Wei, Barnaby Norris, Christopher Betters +1
Here we present a laboratory analysis of the use of a 19-core photonic lantern (PL) in combination with neural network (NN) algorithms as an efficient focal plane wavefront sensor…
The path to detecting extraterrestrial life with astrophotonics
Nemanja Jovanovic, Yinzi Xin, Michael P. Fitzgerald +20
Astrophysical research into exoplanets has delivered thousands of confirmed planets orbiting distant stars. These planets span a wide ranges of size and composition, with diversity…
Photonic spectro-interferometry with SCExAO/FIRST at the Subaru Telescope: towards H-alpha imaging of protoplanets
Sébastien Vievard, Manon Lallement, Elsa Huby +27
FIRST is a post Extreme Adaptive-Optics (ExAO) spectro-interferometer operating in the Visible (600-800 nm, R~400). Its exquisite angular resolution (a sensitivity analysis of on-s…
