  • Patent number: 11650402
    Abstract: A freeform surface off-axial three-mirror imaging system is provided. The freeform surface off-axial three-mirror imaging system comprises a primary mirror, a secondary mirror, and a compensating mirror. The primary mirror, the secondary mirror, and the compensating mirror are located adjacent and spaced away from each other. A surface shape of each of the primary mirror and the secondary mirror is a quadric surface. The primary mirror is used as an aperture stop. A surface shape of the compensating mirror is a freeform surface. A light emitted from a light source is reflected by the primary mirror, the secondary mirror, and the compensating mirror to form an image on an image plane.

  • Patent number: 11409101
    Abstract: A method of designing an freeform surface off-axial three-mirror imaging system is provided. The method includes: establishing an initial system and T (T?2) object-image relationships according to a design goal, and selecting M feature fields for each object-image relationship; using feature rays of the T object-image relationships to construct a freeform surface system by using the initial system; step (S3), the freeform surface system obtained in step (S2) is used as another initial system, using iterative process to reduce a deviation between actual intersection points and ideal target points of the feature rays and feature surfaces, iteratively reconstructing free-form surfaces in the free-form surface system.
