Application of binary optical element to infrared hyperspectral detection

摘要

Binary optical element (BOE) is applied to infrared hyperspectral detector. A new type of infrared hyperspectral detecting image system is designed based on the characteristics of abundant color-dispersion of BOE, and an example of combining refractive-diffractive zoom optical system with Cassegrain system is presented. The system not only has simple structure, long back-working distance and few requirements for material but also can increase the image resolution, abilities of accepting ray energy and registration. Consequently, by adding an appropriate stare array detector to the system, the detecting precision can be raised.
