Abstract

The invention discloses an unshielded three-reflector optical system, which can be used in a wide spectral imaging system with wave band from ultraviolet to infrared, and is particularly applicable to a preposed object lens of a spectrum imager. The system consists of a main reflector, a secondary reflector and a third reflector with aperture ratio of 1 / 0.5-1 / 3; the system avoids shielding through inclining elements; a beam path of the system is telecentric beam path in the image side; a principle ray of zero field coverage is spread along links of the vertex of each element; a diaphragm is arranged on the secondary reflector; the secondary reflector is arranged on a focal plane of the third reflector; focal power of the main reflector, the secondary reflector and the third reflector is positive, negative and positive respectively; curvature radiuses of the vertexes of the three reflectors approximately meet the condition of Petzval; and types of the three reflectors are Zernike free surfaces. The system has reasonable residual aberration distribution to greatly improve image quality, and can easily avoid shielding, so that the effective use area of each mirror face is equivalent to an original mirror; and the primary ray of the zero field coverage of the system moves along the links of the vertex of each surface, thereby facilitating the processing, assembly and regulation ofthe system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an optical system, in particular to an unobstructed large relative aperture three-mirror optical system, which can be used in a wide-spectrum imaging system from ultraviolet to infrared, and is especially suitable for the front objective lens of a spectral imager, which belongs to the optical technology field. Background technique [0002] At present, in the field of optical system design, unobstructed three-mirror optical systems are generally designed using quadric surfaces or even-order aspheric surfaces. In the article "A Design of Front Objective Lens of Imaging Spectrometer" ([J]. Acta Photonica Sinica, 2003, 29(4): 498-499), an optical system is disclosed, see attached figure 1 , which is composed of primary mirror M1, secondary mirror M2 and third mirror M3. In this system, the size of the primary mirror is much larger than the effective use size. The image quality of the optical system with this surface design is not ...
