Optimal pupil apodizations of arbitrary apertures for high-contrast imaging.
In the context of exoplanet direct detection and characterization, where high-contrast imaging is mandatory, we present fully optimized two-dimensional pupil apodizations for which no specific geometric constraints are put on the pupil plane apodization, apart from the shape of the aperture itself. Masks for circular and segmented apertures are displayed, with and without a central obstruction ...
متن کاملDiffraction-limited imaging at IR wavelengths using aperture masks and fully-filled apertures
The performance of a phase recovery algorithm developed for speckle data collected using a pupil-plane mask has been investigated for use at near infrared wavelengths. The method, based on the radio-astronomical self-calibration technique, has been tested alongside a state-of-the-art implementation of the Knox-Thompson scheme using both simulated and real specklegrams. Our results indicate that...
متن کاملDiffraction-contrast imaging of cold atoms
We consider the inverse problem of in-line holography, applied to minimally destructive imaging of cold atom clouds. Absorption imaging near resonance provides a simple, but destructive measurement of atom column density. Imaging off resonance greatly reduces heating, and sequential images may be taken. Under the conditions required for off-resonant imaging, the generally intractable inverse pr...
متن کاملCompressive imaging spectrometers using coded apertures
A spectral imager provides a 3-D data cube in which the spatial information (2-D) of the image is complemented by spectral information (1-D) about each spatial location. Typically, these systems are operated in a fully-determined (or overdetermined) manner so that the measurements can be computationally inverted into a reliable estimate of the source. We propose a notional system design that is...
متن کاملOptimally Toothed Apertures for Reduced Diffraction
We model diffraction errors found when using toothed apertures [L. P. Boivin, Reduction of diffraction errors in radiometry by means of toothed apertures, Appl. Opt. 17, 3323-3328 (1978)]. Using toothed (cf. circular) apertures minimizes diffraction by inducing destructive interference within the diffracted signal. Since diffraction effects can be quite complicated, their over-all reduction may...
