Embodiment Construction

[0032] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] The present invention is an engineering project of China Space Station "Exoplanet Imaging Coronagraph Module of Survey Telescope" and National Natural Science Foundation of China Astronomy Joint Key Support Project "Research on Key Technology of Exoplanet High Contrast Imaging for Large-Aperture Splicing Mirror Telescope" (U2031210 ), the national major scientific research instrument development project "Development of high-contrast imaging detection instrument for exoplanets around faint stars" (11827804).

[0034] The invention adopts the pupil transmittance modulation technology to perform change modulation of the transmittance along the two-dimensional space direction of the pupil of the coronagraph system, so as to realize the suppression of the strong light of the stars on the axis. Different from the traditional transmittance modulation method, ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a spatial broadband ultra-high contrast imaging method and a coronagraph system. According to the method, a pupil transmittance modulation technology is adopted, change modulation of transmittance is carried out in the two-dimensional space direction of a pupil, inhibition of strong light of a fixed star on the axis is achieved, a two-dimensional shape modulation method based on bright and dark strips is adopted, the pupil plane is composed of the bright and dark strips of a limited strip, and by changing the arrangement density distribution of the bright and dark strips, the modulation transmittance is changed, so that the optimal high-contrast imaging is obtained. The system comprises a simulation fixed star light source, a collimating mirror, an aperture diaphragm, a pupil modulation light filter, an imaging mirror and a detector. Aiming at the application of an ultra-high contrast imaging coronagraph in the technical field of broadband imaging, the invention provides and completes the coronagraph system which is suitable for observation with the bandwidth exceeding 5% and even can cover full-band observation. The system can solve the problem that an existing coronagraph is low in light transmission efficiency.
