This project develops a new type of coronagraph, the Annular Groove Phase Mask, to directly image faint exoplanets by reducing starlight interference. The technology aims to enhance observations in the thermal infrared spectrum, facilitating discoveries of distant planets.
Vector vortex coronagraphs (VVC) are among the most promising solutions to directly image faint extrasolar planets by dimming the glare of their nearby host star.
Manufacturing and efficiently operating such devices is however a challenging enterprise, especially in the thermal infrared regime where warm planets radiate most of their energy.
For several years, we have been developing a new class of VVC, called the Annular Groove Phase Mask (AGPM) coronagraph.
Etched on a diamond substrate, this…
