Long-wave infrared has strong penetration ability, and its penetration depth is much deeper than that of medium-wave infrared and short-wave infrared. It can observe ground objects under weather conditions such as clouds, haze, rain, and snow. In terms of applications, infrared long-wave lenses can be used in fields such as all-weather surveillance, space remote sensing detection, fire monitoring, and infrared astronomy.

[0057] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0058] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the optical path of the long-wave infrared spectral imaging lens provided by an embodiment of the present invention.
[0059] As Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides a long-wave infrared spectral imaging lens for long-wave infrared spectral imaging, which sequentially includes a diaphragm 1, a first meniscus lens 2, a second meniscus lens 3, a third meniscus lens 4, a fourth meniscus lens 5, a fifth meniscus lens 6, a Dewar window 7, and an integrated filter 8 arranged coaxially from the object plane to the image plane;
[0060] The first meniscus lens is a positive lens, the second meniscus lens is a negative lens, the third meniscus lens is a positive lens, the fourth meniscus lens is a positive lens, the fifth meniscus lens is a negative lens, and the Dewar window is a plano-convex lens;
[0061] The side of the first meniscus lens close to the object surface is an even aspherical surface, the side of the fourth meniscus lens close to the object surface is an even aspherical surface, and the second meniscus lens, the third meniscus lens, and the fifth meniscus lens are all spherical mirrors.
[0062] In the solution of this embodiment, an imaging optical path is formed by using five meniscus lenses. A meniscus lens refers to a lens with one convex outer surface and one concave inner surface. The meniscus lens can greatly reduce spherical aberration, and can obtain a smaller focal point and fewer aberrations than other types of lenses, so as to improve the imaging quality.
[0063] In practical applications, the Dewar window is equivalent to a cold stop when in use, which can limit the light beam, control the entry of light, and control the imaging range.
[0064] In addition, it should be noted that the diaphragm in the related art is generally placed behind the lens to better block the light outside the field of view from entering the system, thereby making the imaging quality better. However, in this way, the light before entering the system is not constrained, so it is not conducive to blackbody calibration, and the calibration effect will not be good enough. From this perspective, the final imaging effect will also be not good. In the solution of this embodiment, the position of the diaphragm is adjusted from behind the lens to in front of all the lenses, that is, when performing blackbody calibration, the light will first be restricted by the diaphragm, and high-precision radiation measurement calibration can be achieved. However, at the same time, due to the change in the position of the diaphragm, the lens cannot converge the light better. Based on this, in the solution of this embodiment, by controlling the type of lenses and the arrangement of positive and negative lenses in the original optical path, the lens can maintain or even improve the light converging effect from this perspective, and form a real exit pupil at the Dewar window. Furthermore, the imaging effect can be improved as a whole.
[0065] In an exemplary embodiment, the integrated filter is a multi-channel integrated filter, which is used in conjunction with the spectral TDI technology to obtain a high-sensitivity spectral image.
[0066] A filter is an optical element used to select light of a specific wavelength band. It can selectively transmit or reflect light of a specific wavelength through its optical properties. When light passes through the filter, due to the different refractive indices or propagation speeds of light of different wavelengths in the material, they will be separated into different spectral components, so as to achieve precise control and processing of light and perform spectral imaging. The integrated filter in this application is a multi-channel integrated filter, which is used in conjunction with the spectral TDI technology to obtain a high-sensitivity spectral image.
[0067] In an exemplary embodiment, the central thickness d1 of the first meniscus lens satisfies 14 mm ≤ d1 ≤ 18 mm;
[0068] The central thickness d2 of the second meniscus lens satisfies 5 mm ≤ d2 ≤ 10 mm;
[0069] The central thickness d3 of the third meniscus lens satisfies 5 mm ≤ d3 ≤ 10 mm;
[0070] The central thickness d4 of the fourth meniscus lens satisfies 4 mm ≤ d4 ≤ 8 mm;
[0071] The central thickness d5 of the fifth meniscus lens satisfies 5 mm ≤ d5 ≤ 10 mm.
[0072] Among them, the central thickness d1 of the first meniscus lens is preferably 16 mm; the central thickness d2 of the second meniscus lens is preferably 8 mm; the central thickness d3 of the third meniscus lens is preferably 8 mm; the central thickness d4 of the fourth meniscus lens is preferably 6 mm; the central thickness d5 of the fifth meniscus lens is preferably 8 mm.
[0073] In practical applications, the central thickness of the lens refers to the central thickness of the material at the central part of the lens, and measures the central thickness at the highest or lowest point of the two surfaces of the lens. In practical applications, by controlling the central thickness of the five lenses, the optical path length of the light passing through the lens can be accurately controlled. On the one hand, the optical path length here can affect the converging or diverging effect of the lens on the light, and on the other hand, it will also affect the energy loss of the light when propagating in the lens. Therefore, in this embodiment, by controlling the central thickness of the three lenses within a certain range, the relationship between the control effect of the lens on the light and the energy loss of the light can be balanced, so as to achieve the highest control effect with as little energy loss as possible.
[0074] In an exemplary embodiment, the distance p1 from the side of the first meniscus lens close to the object surface to the diaphragm satisfies 50 mm ≤ p1 ≤ 70 mm;
[0075] The distance p2 from the side of the second meniscus lens close to the object surface to the side of the first meniscus lens close to the image surface satisfies 20 mm ≤ p2 ≤ 30 mm;
[0076] The distance p3 from the side of the third meniscus lens close to the object surface to the side of the second meniscus lens close to the image surface satisfies 30 mm ≤ p3 ≤ 40 mm;
[0077] The distance p4 from the side of the fourth meniscus lens close to the object surface to the side of the third meniscus lens close to the image surface satisfies 80 mm ≤ p4 ≤ 90 mm;
[0078] The distance p5 from the side of the fifth meniscus lens close to the object surface to the side of the fourth meniscus lens close to the image surface satisfies 2 mm ≤ p5 ≤ 7 mm;
[0079] The distance p6 between the side of the Dewar near the object surface and the side of the fifth meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies 2 mm ≤ p5 ≤ 10 mm;
[0080] The distance p7 between the side of the integrated filter near the object surface and the side of the Dewar window near the image surface satisfies 30 mm ≤ p5 ≤ 40 mm;
[0081] The distance p8 between the image surface and the side of the Dewar window near the image surface satisfies 0 mm ≤ p5 ≤ 1 mm.
[0082] In implementation, the distances in this embodiment refer to vertical distances. In the solution of this embodiment, by controlling the vertical distances between the lenses, it can be ensured that the lenses exert the converging or diverging effects to the greatest extent, and problems such as excessive convergence, excessive divergence, insufficient convergence, or insufficient divergence can be avoided.
[0083] In an exemplary embodiment, the radius of curvature R1 of the side of the first meniscus lens near the object surface satisfies 80 mm ≤ R1 ≤ 90 mm;
[0084] The radius of curvature R2 of the side of the first meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies 150 mm ≤ R2 ≤ 160 mm;
[0085] The radius of curvature R3 of the side of the second meniscus lens near the object surface satisfies 24 mm ≤ R3 ≤ 27 mm;
[0086] The radius of curvature R4 of the side of the second meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies 15 mm ≤ R4 ≤ 20 mm;
[0087] The radius of curvature R5 of the side of the third meniscus lens near the object surface satisfies -60 mm ≤ R5 ≤ -50 mm;
[0088] The radius of curvature R6 of the side of the third meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies -50 mm ≤ R6 ≤ -40 mm;
[0089] The radius of curvature R7 of the side of the fourth meniscus lens near the object surface satisfies 50 mm ≤ R7 ≤ 60 mm;
[0090] The radius of curvature R8 of the side of the fourth meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies 90 mm ≤ R8 ≤ 100 mm;
[0091] The radius of curvature R9 of the side of the fifth meniscus lens near the object surface satisfies -160 mm ≤ R9 ≤ -150 mm;
[0092] The radius of curvature R10 of the side of the fifth meniscus lens near the image surface satisfies -135 mm ≤ R10 ≤ -130 mm;
[0093] Both the Dewar window and the integrated filter are planar.
[0094] In this embodiment, the radius of curvature of each surface of several lenses can also be defined. The radius of curvature is a quantity that describes the degree of curve bending change at a certain point on the curve. In this embodiment, while controlling the central thickness of the lens, the edge central thickness of the lens can also be controlled by defining the radius of curvature of the lens. On the one hand, the relationship between the control effect of the lens on the light passing through the edge and the energy loss of the light can be balanced. On the other hand, the radius of curvature can also control the aberration of the lens, and the obtained infrared lens can have a large image field with low distortion, thereby improving the imaging quality.
[0095] In an exemplary embodiment, the aspherical surface shapes on the object surface side of the first meniscus lens and the object surface side of the fourth meniscus lens conform to the following formula:
[0096]
[0097] where Z is the sagittal height, c is the curvature, r is the radial distance from a certain point on the lens to the optical axis, k is the conic coefficient, a 4 、a 6 and a 8 are all aspherical coefficients.
[0098] In an exemplary embodiment, the object surface side of the first meniscus lens satisfies:
[0099] a4 = 7.26E -8 , a6 = 4.36E -12 , a8 = 5.75E -15 , k = -1.37.
[0100] In an exemplary embodiment, the object surface side of the fourth meniscus lens satisfies:
[0101] a4 = 6.30E -6 , a6 = -5.80E -9 , a8 = 3.87E -12 , k = -8.71.
[0102] In an exemplary embodiment, the focal length f1 of the first meniscus lens satisfies 58 mm ≤ f1 ≤ 59 mm;
[0103] The focal length f2 of the second meniscus lens satisfies -80 mm ≤ f2 ≤ -79 mm;
[0104] The focal length f3 of the third meniscus lens satisfies 53 mm ≤ f3 ≤ 54 mm;
[0105] The focal length f4 of the fourth meniscus lens satisfies 38 mm ≤ f4 ≤ 39 mm;
[0106] The focal length f5 of the fifth meniscus lens satisfies -4109 mm ≤ f5 ≤ -4108 mm.
[0107] In practical applications, the focal length f1 of the first meniscus lens can be 58.705 mm; the focal length f2 of the second meniscus lens can be -79.806 mm; the focal length f3 of the third meniscus lens can be 53.943 mm; the focal length f4 of the fourth meniscus lens can be 38.883 mm; the focal length f5 of the fifth meniscus lens can be -4108.4 mm.
[0108] In an exemplary embodiment, the materials of the first meniscus lens, the third meniscus lens, and the fourth meniscus lens are germanium;
[0109] the materials of the second meniscus lens and the fifth meniscus lens are zinc sulfide;
[0110] The materials of the Dewar window and the integrated filter are germanium.
[0111] In practical applications, germanium and zinc sulfide have a high refractive index, which gives these two materials significant advantages and greater flexibility in optical design. Using germanium and zinc sulfide as the lens-making materials can make the prepared lens have a higher refractive index. On the one hand, it can reduce the distortion degree of the lens, and on the other hand, it can also reduce the sensitivity of the lens, making the performance of the lens more stable.
