Abstract
NASA is endeavoring to launch missions capable of detecting Earth-like planets around neighboring stars. In visible wavelengths, this requires better than one 10 to the minus ten suppression of scattered light as close as 50 milli-arcsec to the stellar image. This extraordinary requirement is within reach but it requires broad-band wave front control to sub-Angstrom levels. We describe several high dynamic range imaging solutions, describe the various factors that contribute to the scattered light level and introduce a novel closed-loop broad-band correction system, suitable for the Shaped Pupil Coronagraph and the Lyot Coronagraph.
