Astrophotonics: The Rise of Integrated Photonics in Astronomy [PDF]
Optics and Photonics News, 2019 Astronomers have come to recognize the benefits of photonics, often in combination with optical systems, in solving longstanding experimental problems in Earth-based astronomy. Here, we explore some of the recent advances made possible by integrated photonics. We also look to the future with a view to entirely new kinds of astronomy, particularly in an

A Report on the Status of Astrophotonics for Interferometry and Beyond
, 2022 Long-baseline interferometry and high-resolution spectroscopy are two examples of areas that have benefited from astrophotonics devices, but the application range is expanding to other subareas and other wavelength ranges. The VLTI has been one of the pioneering astronomical infrastructure to exploit the potential of astrophotonics instrumentation for ...

Astrophotonics: The Future of Astronomical Instrumentation
CLEO: 2015, 2015Astrophotonics — the interface of photonics and astronomical instrumentation — has already made important contributions to ground-based and space-based instrumentation (space photonics). The early developments built on technologies arising out of telecommunications but, in recent years, astrophotonics has begun to “give back” to traditional photonic ...

Integrated echélle gratings for astrophotonics
Advances in Optical Astronomical Instrumentation 2019, 2020In pursuit of miniaturization of spectrograph systems, various wavelength-dispersive technologies such as arrayed waveguide gratings (AWGs) [1] and stationary-wave integrated Fourier transform spectrographs (SWIFTS) [2] have been studied as possible candidates for practical implementations of compact, lightweight integrated spectrographs.

Multicore optical fibres for astrophotonics
2011 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe and 12th European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO EUROPE/EQEC), 2011We report progress towards multimode (MM) fibre filters for suppressing the OH emission that hinders ground-based observation of the early Universe. Fibre Bragg gratings (FBGs) can filter these narrow spectral lines in single-mode (SM) fibres [1]. Implementing them in MM fibres well-matched to astronomical instruments requires transitions between the ...

An Integrated Fan-Out Device for Astrophotonics
Frontiers in Optics 2010/Laser Science XXVI, 2010A fan-out device is presented which connects a 120 core multicore fiber to a linear waveguide array. This technology enables interfacing of multicore fibers to diffraction limited slits (e.g. arrayed waveguide gratings) for astrophotonic spectroscopy.

Astrophotonics: A Promising Arena for Silicon Photonics
Silicon Photonics XIV, 2019Astrophotonics is the application of photonics to astronomical instrumentation. This relatively young and rapidly developing Field can play a transformative role in astronomy, offering new functionality, increased efficiency and stability, and allowing traditional large bulk optics instruments to be replaced with miniature scalable modular instruments.
