ABSTRACT
A novel visible spectrum imaging spectrograph optical system was proposed based on the negative dispersion, the arbitrary phase modulation characteristics of diffractive optical element and the aberration correction characteristics of freeform optical element. The double agglutination lens was substituted by a hybrid refractive/diffractive lens based on the negative dispersion of diffractive optical element. Two freeform optical elements were used in order to correct some aberration based on the aberration correction characteristics of freeform optical element. An example and frondose design process were presented. When the design parameters were uniform, compared with the traditional system, the novel visible spectrum imaging spectrograph optical system's weight was reduced by 22.9%, the total length was reduced by 26.6%, the maximal diameter was reduced by 30.6%, and the modulation transfer function (MTF) in 1.0 field-of-view was improved by 0.35 with field-of-view improved maximally. The maximal distortion was reduced by 1.6%, the maximal longitudinal aberration was reduced by 56.4%, and the lateral color aberration was reduced by 59. 3%. From these data, we know that the performance of the novel system was advanced quickly and it could be used to put forward a new idea for modern visible spectrum imaging spectrograph optical system design.
ABSTRACT
Because harmonic diffractive optics elements has special achromatism, athermalization and arbitrary phase modulation characteristics, an infrared detection system method with dual spectrum and wide temperature range was presented based on the most advanced infrared dual color detector which had a format of 320 X 240 and the pixel pitch of 30 microm. A hybrid refractive/ harmonic diffractive infrared detection system with dual spectrum and wide temperature range was designed. The working wavelength range was 3. 8 - 4. 2 and 8. 8 -11. 2 microm. The system was only consisted of three lenses, including one aspheric surfaces and a harmonic diffraction surface, which made the system have compact structure and light weight. In the temperature range -120 -200 degreesC, the RMS radius of spot diagram in 3. 8 approximately 4. 2 and 8. 8-11. 2 pm was 19. 07 and 17. 75 microm respectively, which is less than the pixel size of infrared detector with 30 m, the enclosed energy in 30 microm, the enclosed energy in 3. 8-4. 2 and 8. 8-11. 2 microm is 88. 7% and 82. 4% in two pixel size. The method and structure was convenient and predominant. It was proved that the design was feasible.
