This thesis was realized in the context of exoplanet direct detection with ground-based extremely large telescopes (30 to 42 meter diameter). To deliver such contrast level, adaptive/optics System (to correct for the turbulence aberrations) and coronagraphs (to reduce the flux of the parent star where the planet signal is hidden) are required. The intent of this study is to optimize, compare and select optimal coronagraph concepts that can accommodate such telescope constraints (primary mirror obscuration and segmentation, secondary holder. . . ) at several contrast levels (after correction of the atmospheric turbulence with an adaptive optics System, and when a calibration of the halo is performed by the use of a differential imaging Syste...
