Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of optical engineering technology, and in particular provides an off-axis optical system assembly and adjustment method and an assembly and adjustment tool. Background Art

[0002] The reflectors of the off-axis reflector system are mostly aspherical, which breaks the spherical symmetry of the optical elements, resulting in up to 6 degrees of freedom for a single off-axis reflector, and the effects on aberrations are coupled with each other. The reflector is sensitive to position errors and difficult to install and adjust. It is necessary to ensure that each freedom is independent of each other when adjusting the off-axis reflector, and to be able to stably maintain the position and angle of the off-axis reflector. Due to the roll of the off-axis reflector, when its roll angle differs greatly from the roll angle of the frame of the off-axis optical system, the outgoing light will deviate from the theoretical position, making subsequent optical path installation and adjustment difficult. After assembly, it is necessary to ensure that the roll angle of the off-axis reflector is consistent with that of the frame of the off-axis optical system to ensure the position of the outgoing light. The assembly method provided by the existing technology is difficult to maintain consistency.
