23 5. Summary & Conclusions Direct Imaging of Exoplanets has challenged the planet formation theory; Evolution model needs to improve by imaging all-age planets, especially the mature planets ExPI for LOT will be able to make important contribution ExAO for LOT is a mature technique AO with 97-actuator and 277-actuator DMs. AO with 468 actuator will be available in next year. Our Non-common optical path algorithm is an unique technique optimized for high-resolution and high contrast imaging. Visiting observation experience in recent years The Ex-AO with 820-actuator DM for the 12-m telescope can be built based on current technique (4 Xeon CPUs and so on). High-contrast imaging technique We have developed vortex coronagraph, optimized for small IWA. We have developed our IRS data reduction technique. We have developed our polarization imaging technique: 10-3 contrast gain. Combined with our Ex-AO, coronagraph, Polarimetry and IRS, we aim to achieve 10-7 in the NIR for young and 10-8 in short wavelength for all-age exoplanet imaging.
24 Two purpose to build large telescopes: 1) High special resolution (diffraction limited), otherwise the resolution is similar to a 100mm telescope due to seeing limitation 2) High energy gathering (faint stars) Therefore, diffraction limited performance provided by ExAO is suggested to be used in future generation instruments
