Integrated optics for astronomical interferometry [PDF]
We propose a new instrumental concept for long-baseline optical single-mode interferometry using integrated optics which were developed for telecommunication. Visible and infrared multi-aperture interferometry requires many optical functions (spatial filtering, beam combination, photometric calibration, polarization control) to detect astronomical ...

Introduction to the Special Issue on Structured Light Coherence
Statistical optics, and optical coherence in particular, developed into a stand-alone branch of physical optics in the second half of the 20th century and has found a number of ground-breaking applications in astronomical measurements, medical ...

Dispersion Characteristics of the Multi-mode Fiber-fed VIPA Spectrograph
A high-resolution ( ${ \mathcal R }\gt {10}^{5}$ ), multi-mode fiber-fed spectrograph on large telescopes with a reasonable size is desirable in astronomy.

Generalized large optics fabrication multiplexing
High precision astronomical optics are manufactured through deterministic computer controlled optical surfacing processes, such as subaperture small tool polishing, magnetorheological finishing, bonnet tool polishing, and ion beam figuring.
