The Roman Coronagraph is expected to perform its HOWFSC with a ground-in-the-loop scheme due to the computational complexity of the Electric Field Conjugation (EFC) algorithm. This scheme provides the flexibility to alter the HOWFSC algorithm for given science objectives. The baseline HOWFSC scheme involves running EFC while observing a bright star such as {zeta} Puppis to create the initial dark hole followed by a slew to the science target. The new implicit EFC (iEFC) algorithm removes the optical diffraction model from the controller, making the final contrast independent of model accuracy. While previously demonstrated with a single DM, iEFC is extended to two deformable mirror systems in order to create annular dark holes. The algorithm is then applied to the Wide-Field-of-View Shaped Pupil Coronagraph (SPC-WFOV) mode designed for the Roman Space Telescope using end-to-end physical optics models. Initial monochromatic simulations demonstrate the efficacy of iEFC as well as the optimal choice of modes for the SPC-WFOV instrument. Further simulations with a 3.6% wavefront control bandpass and a broader 10% bandpass then demonstrate that iEFC can be used in broadband scenarios to achieve contrasts below 1E-8 with Roman. Finally, an EMCCD model is implemented to estimate calibration times and predict the controller's performance. Here, 1E-8 contrasts are achieved with a calibration time of about 6.8 hours assuming the reference star is {zeta} Puppis. The results here indicate that iEFC can be a valid HOWFSC method that can mitigate the risk of model errors associated with space-borne coronagraphs, but to maximize iEFC performance, lengthy calibration times will be required to mitigate the noise accumulated during calibration.","PeriodicalId":508807,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems","volume":"5 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141006053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Photonic technologies have enabled a generation of nulling interferometers, such as the guided light interferometric nulling technology instrument, potentially capable of imaging exoplanets and circumstellar structure at extreme contrast ratios by suppressing contaminating starlight, and paving the way to the characterization of habitable planet atmospheres. But even with cutting-edge photonic nulling instruments, the achievable starlight suppression (null-depth) is only as good as the instrument’s wavefront control and its accuracy is only as good as the instrument’s calibration. Here, we present an approach wherein outputs from non-science channels of a photonic nulling chip are used as a precise null-depth calibration method and can also be used in real time for fringe tracking. This is achieved using a deep neural network to learn the true in-situ complex transfer function of the instrument and then predict the instrumental leakage contribution (at millisecond timescales) for the science (nulled) outputs, enabling accurate calibration. In this method, this pseudo-real-time approach is used instead of the statistical methods used in other techniques (such as null self calibration, or NSC) and also resolves the severe effect of read-noise seen when NSC is used with some detector types.","PeriodicalId":508807,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Astronomical Telescopes, Instruments, and Systems","volume":"335 1","pages":"048005 - 048005"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139326921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
