TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of aviation / aerospace photoelectric remote sensing imaging detection, and particularly relates to a light and small common-aperture infrared / laser ranging integrated camera. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the prior art, the optical system of a conventional common-aperture infrared / laser ranging integrated camera adopts a catadioptric structure, which is composed of a primary and secondary telescope sub-system, a light splitting prism, a correction lens group and the like. This optical configuration cannot reduce the volume and weight of the system, and thus cannot realize the light and small type of the system.

[0003] A single optical element annular aperture ultrathin imaging system realizes relatively high imaging quality in a mid-long wave infrared dual waveband, but this system is designed only for a common focal plane and cannot be applied to the imaging requirements of separated detectors of a laser / infrared dual-mode detection system.

[0004] Another single optical element annular aperture ultrathin imaging system selects infrared chalcogenide glass IRG206 as a base material, and simultaneously adopts a light splitting element to split infrared / laser dual modes. In order to realize the athermalization of the system in a long wave infrared waveband, titanium alloy material is matched, and in a laser waveband, aluminum alloy material is matched. The light weight of the system cannot be guaranteed. In addition, the single optical element (IRG206) is coated with a double-layer antireflection film to increase the transmittance of short and long waves, but there is still a certain loss of energy. Especially in a high temperature environment, the system background noise increases sharply, which is not conducive to the detection of remote small targets.
