Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of axial flow fan production and manufacturing, and particularly relates to a transmissive laser emission and detection common-aperture optical system. Background Art
[0002] The main working mode of the laser direct transmission system is based on the common-aperture optical path of laser emission and detection. First, the detection optical path accurately locates the target, and then the laser is focused on the target. To achieve this mode, the traditional design of the common-aperture optical path for laser emission and detection often uses an off-axis reflective beam expander system in combination with a fine tracking optical path, and the laser emission and detection optical paths are confocal in the entire working range by adjusting the focus of the off-axis secondary mirror. However, the off-axis reflective system destroys the rotational symmetry of the system, introduces various non-rotationally symmetric aberrations, and affects the final imaging field of view and imaging quality of the detection system. Moreover, the off-axis reflective system is sensitive to temperature, requires the use of low-thermal expansion structural materials for assembly, and the cost of structural components and lenses is high, which is not conducive to application in small systems.
[0003] The patent with the publication number CN115373122A discloses an optical system and design method for common-aperture laser emission and imaging. The system consists of a front beam expander telescopic group, a dichroic mirror, and a rear imaging group. The beam expander telescopic group is an off-axis two-reflection afocal Cassegrain system, where the primary mirror and the secondary mirror are both parabolic surfaces, the foci of the two mirrors coincide and there is no intermediate image point; the imaging system is an off-axis three-reflection imaging system with folded optical paths, where the primary mirror, the secondary mirror, and the tertiary mirror are all free-form surfaces, and a plane mirror is inserted at the intermediate image point behind the secondary mirror to fold the optical path; the system adopts a total reflection design form, is not sensitive to chromatic aberration, can meet the beam expansion and wide-band imaging requirements of lasers with different wavelengths, and has quite good versatility. Both the beam expander system and the imaging system adopt a volume-compressed structure, the imaging system adopts a free-form surface type, and the common-aperture design, combined with the advantage of the light weight of the reflective system, makes the final system have a small volume, a large field of view, and good image quality, and can be used for small mobile platforms.
[0004] In the process of using the optical systems in the prior art, there are at least the following problems:

[0046] In this embodiment, the effective focal length of the imaging detection link is 600 mm. From Figures 2 to 12 the data in, it shows that the imaging effect of the improved optical system is good, and the optical quality is close to the diffraction limit.
[0047] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, when used as a laser emission system, the laser passes through the beam splitter 30 and the fast steering mirror 20 in sequence and then enters the focusing emission lens group 10 and passes through: the second mirror 103, the first mirror 102, and the main mirror 101 in sequence and then is emitted.
[0048] In this embodiment, as Figures 2 to 12 shown, the beam expansion ratio of the laser emission link is 4.9, the improved optical quality is close to the diffraction limit, and the quality of the optical path is improved.
[0049] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the half field of view angle of the optical system is less than or equal to 0.21°.
[0050] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the operating wavelength of the laser emission link is 1065 nm - 1070 nm.
[0051] Specifically, at this operating wavelength, a graph of the encircled energy coefficient at different distances as Figures 7 to 10 shown is obtained.
[0052] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, the operating wavelength of the imaging detection link is 798 nm - 818 nm.
[0053] Specifically, at this operating wavelength, a graph of the transfer modulation function at different distances as Figures 2 to 6 shown is obtained.
