TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of optical lens, and relates to an optical lens capable of collimating and outputting target radiation in a 300-1000nm wave band. BACKGROUND
[0002] A multi-spectral imaging system can simultaneously acquire images of a target in multiple spectral wave bands, and the images can reflect optical information that cannot be revealed by a conventional imaging system after information fusion. For multiple imaging channels in the multi-spectral system, the consistency of optical axes needs to be well adjusted, which requires a wide-spectrum collimation system with a common optical axis and covering the spectral channels, and an optical collimation lens is a core component.
[0003] A conventional scheme of the wide-spectrum collimation lens is to use an off-axis parabolic mirror or a Cassegrain reflective lens. Although these schemes are based on a reflective optical path and are suitable for a relatively wide working wave band, they all have defects of small field of view angle, large volume or existence of central obstruction. SUMMARY

[0007] The first lens, the second lens and the third lens form a front lens group, and the fourth lens, the fifth lens and the sixth lens form a rear lens group, and the total focal length ratio of the front lens group to the rear lens group is 1: (1.15-1.25).
[0008] The total focal length of the front lens group is 75mm, and the total focal length of the rear lens group is 90mm.
[0009] The focal length distribution ratio of the first lens, the second lens and the third lens is 2: (-0.9~ -1.1): (0.9~1.1); the focal length distribution ratio of the fourth lens, the fifth lens and the sixth lens is 1.5: (-0.9~ -1.1): (1.65~1.75).
[0010] The focal length of the first lens, the second lens, the third lens, the fourth lens, the fifth lens and the sixth lens is 67.03mm, -30.97mm, 34.22mm, 43.24mm, -30.02mm and 49.65mm respectively.
[0011] The lens parameters are shown in Table 1, wherein Ri is the curvature radius of the i-th optical surface, ti is the thickness of the i-th lens, and di is the air gap between the i-th lens and the next optical surface.
