The Photonic Lantern Nuller: from concept to laboratory and on-sky demonstrations
Yinzi Xin, Nemanja Jovanovic, Dimitri Mawet +18
This thesis work presents the conceptual design and experimental characterization of the Photonic Lantern Nuller instrument, which uses a multimode-to-single-mode demultiplexing wa…
Demonstrating the integration of a photonic lantern with an all-fiber-based nulling interferometer
Jordan Diaz, Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Philip M. Hinz +12
High-contrast imaging of Solar System scale exoplanets and protoplanets demands advancements in instrumentation to access deeper starlight suppression at smaller angular separation…
Experimentally-determined performance limits for joint imaging and wavefront sensing with a photonic lantern
Aditya R. Sengupta, Vincent Chambouleyron, Rebecca Jensen-Clem +16
The photonic lantern (PL) is a focal-plane wavefront sensor (WFS) that can be used for second-stage control of extreme adaptive optics (AO) systems. While the number of sensed mode…
Multi-pulse accumulation of gas molecular coherence enables gigahertz ultrafast frequency conversion
Yazhou Wang, Marcello Meneghetti, Ian Davidson +8
Frequency conversion of ultrafast lasers is fundamentally constrained by the trade-off between pulse energy and repetition rate. Here, we demonstrate a frequency conversion mechani…
Highly-efficient perturbative Raman shifting by engineering the nonlinear temporal response
Yi-Hao Chen, Wenchao Wang, Shaodong Hou +4
Raman scattering underlies a broad range of spectroscopic and light-generation techniques, yet its conventional description, based on the Raman gain spectrum, accurately describes…
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…
Tunable, high pulse energy and narrow linewidth gas-filled fiber laser across near- and mid-infrared
Yazhou Wang, Marcello Meneghetti, Manoj K. Dasa +9
Wavelength widely tunable infrared fiber lasers that simultaneously deliver high pulse energies with narrow linewidths are critical for applications ranging from spectroscopy to no…
