Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of infrared lens production, and in particular to a long-wave athermal infrared lens. Background Art

[0002] The infrared thermal imaging system has many advantages such as good concealment, strong anti-electronic interference ability, intuitive image, easy observation, high precision, good low-altitude detection performance, etc. At the same time, it also has strong ability to penetrate smoke, fog, haze, snow and other restrictions and identify camouflage. It is particularly suitable for detecting targets at night and under complex meteorological conditions, making it have a wide range of application prospects in the fields of alert, reconnaissance and security, and it has received increasing attention from various scientific research units and enterprises. Compared with the refrigerated staring infrared thermal imager, although there is still a big gap in sensitivity such as temperature resolution, the non-refrigerated one has some outstanding advantages, such as no need to cool the detector, greatly reduced device cost, low power consumption, light weight, miniaturization, fast startup, easy to use, flexible, wide range of applications, and high cost performance.

Currently, many long-wave infrared lenses have complex designs and a large number of lenses, resulting in a complex optical system architecture, obvious image distortion, and a small field of view.
