In one respect,  however, its success has been limited: The instrument, which was  conceived as a "planet hunter", has found planets, but the ultimate  success has - foreseeably - failed to materialise, despite an enormous  amount of observation time. However, 6 years of experience provided  valuable information about the limiting factors, which have now been  reliably identified, as well as possible remedies.  This gave rise to  the idea of a "SPHERE+" upgrade - an improvement in spectral resolution,  as well as an upgrade of the XAO system with a second stage.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: German[[BR]][https://svn.mpia.de/trac/gulli/att/raw-attachment/wiki/WikiStart/att-sphere_plus.pdf Slides: English][[BR]]Questions: German, English ||

MICADO can  operate in a stand-alone mode where the ELT focal plane is reimaged to  the MICADO focal plane via the relay optics (RO). This subsystem  consists of an optical bench made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic,  the MICADO calibration assembly, a cover to protect all opto-mechanical  components on top of the bench, and an optical assembly. [[BR]] [[BR]]André Boné will present the optical design of the MICADO relay optics,  and its tolerance analysis. These tolerances affect the WFE, the exit  pupil quality, and optical distortion. The considered effects are  alignment (internal and external), optical manufacturing tolerances, and  mechanical effects such as mount-induced aberrations, warping of the  supporting bench, and the thermal behavior of the subsystem. We will  look into how these analyses are performed, and walk through some pros  and cons of solutions that bring the system into compliancy.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: English[[BR]][https://svn.mpia.de/trac/gulli/att/raw-attachment/wiki/WikiStart/ATT_MICADO_RelayOptics.pdf Slides: English][[BR]]Questions: English ||

Photonic  components offer  enormous potential for astronomical instrumentation,  as they can reduce the  amount of bulky, heavy free-space optics and  pave the way for innovative  solutions. Such astrophotonic devices are  already integrated in high-end  instruments, leading to groundbreaking  discoveries, e.g. the study of the  supermassive Black Hole in our Milky  Way using GRAVITY at the VLT (Nobel  Prize for Physics 2020). With the  ongoing development of novel manufacturing  methods and designs, the  field of astrophotonics continues to grow.[[BR]][[BR]]At the  innovation center innoFSPEC Potsdam, photonic solutions are  developed for  applications along the signal chain of optical/NIR  telescopes, e.g. fiber-based OH-suppression  filters (potentially for  ELT-MOS/MOSAIC), frequency combs (for STELLA), a  PIC-based spectrograph  (PAWS), or interferometric beam combiners, also based  on PIC (for  CHARA). After design, manufacture, and initial laboratory   characterization, such components are being prepared for on-sky tests,  to  validate them for use in real instruments. I will give a brief  overview of  the astrophotonic research activities at AIP and highlight  our current work  on beam combiners for stellar interferometry.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: German[[BR]]Slides: English[[BR]]Questions: German, English ||
