Method of Mitigating Polabs with Optimized Films

  1. Introduction: Polarization aberrations limit HCI
  2. PRT + Multilayer Thinfilms with Poke
    • Review PRT, Polarization Aberrations, the Jones Pupil
    • Review Thin films, and the optimizeable parameters
    • Poke rapid computation of thin films
    • Optimization methodology
    • TMT as the prototype observatory
  3. Using PRT to optimize the spatial distribution of thin films
    • Coating optimized for "Reflectance Uniformity"
    • [ ] #9
    • Preliminary analysis of the Jones Pupil and coronagraphic residuals
    • [ ] #4
    • [ ] #5
    • [ ] #6
  4. Sensitivity Analysis
    • Introduce Monte Carlo Analysis
    • [ ] #7
    • [ ] #8
  5. Conclusions + Future Work

This has turned into polabs for HWO, so closing this issue.
