The power of the next generation of telescopes that will rely largely on the combination of light-collecting area with excellent (ideally: diffraction limited) image quality. Therefore, the focus will heavily lean on adaptive optics and the near infrared wavelength regime. A severe limiting factor is the presence and strength of atmospheric OH emission lines in the NIR. OH suppression techniques involving fiber Bragg gratings (FBG) have been proposed, however as yet not fully demonstrated on sky. We are involved in the first generation FBG prototype development with partners in Australia, including the GNOSIS and PRAXIS on-sky experiments. Since the supply of suitable multi-notch filters is no longer available from industry, we have made an effort at innoFSPEC Potsdam to build a specialized laboratory for the development and manufacture of 2nd generation FBGs for OH suppression. Suppression of the strong NIR OH emission lines requires a single grating that reflects multiple wavelengths, spaced at non-periodic intervals, with flat-top profile and high suppression ratio. It has been shown that aperiodic fiber Bragg gratings (AFBGs) can provide such functions. However, the fabrication technology requires accurate optical alignment of several degrees of freedom as well as complex control of modulated beams to form a varying interference pattern. In our work, an algorithm is developed from the index profile of a multi-notch AFBG to the design of a complex phase-mask that can generate a matching UV diffraction pattern, which will in turn inscribe an single-mode fiber into the chosen AFBG. With such a phase mask, the fabrication of the AFBGs will be reduced to a simple UV-exposure process, i.e., the complex alignment and control processes of the interference pattern from modulated beams are avoided altogether. The resulting reliable and reproducible fabrication process will dramatically reduce of the cost of such filters. Packaging aspects for a complete sky emission filter system will also be discussed.

We here discuss recent progress on astronomical optical frequency comb generation at innoFSPEC-Potsdam. Two different platforms (and approaches) are numerically and experimentally investigated targeting medium and low resolution spectrographs at astronomical facilities in which innoFSPEC is currently involved. In the first approach, a frequency comb is generated by propagating two lasers through three nonlinear stages – the first two stages serve for the generation of low-noise ultra-short pulses, while the final stage is a low-dispersion highly-nonlinear fibre where the pulses undergo strong spectral broadening. In our approach, the wavelength of one of the lasers can be tuned allowing the comb line spacing being continuously varied during the calibration procedure – this tuning capability is expected to improve the calibration accuracy since the CCD detector response can be fully scanned. The input power, the dispersion, the nonlinear coefficient, and fibre lengths in the nonlinear stages are defined and optimized by solving the Generalized Nonlinear Schrodinger Equation. Experimentally, we generate the 250GHz line-spacing frequency comb using two narrow linewidth lasers that are adiabatically compressed in a standard fibre first and then in a double-clad Er/Yb doped fibre. The spectral broadening finally takes place in a highly nonlinear fibre resulting in an astro-comb with 250 calibration lines (covering a bandwidth of 500 nm) with good spectral equalization. In the second approach, we aim to generate optical frequency combs in dispersion-optimized silicon nitride ring resonators. A technique for lowering and flattening the chromatic dispersion in silicon nitride waveguides with silica cladding is proposed and demonstrated. By minimizing the waveguide dispersion in the resonator two goals are targeted: enhancing the phase matching for non-linear interactions and producing equally spaced resonances. For this purpose, instead of one cladding layer our design incorporates two layers with appropriate thicknesses. We demonstrate a nearly zero dispersion (with +/- 4 ps/nm-km variation) over the spectral region from 1.4 to 2.3 microns. The techniques reported here should open new avenues for the generation of compact astronomical frequency comb sources on a chip or in nonlinear fibres.
