Abstract
Aiming at the wide-spectrum chromatic aberration problem of membrane diffractive lenses, the concept of the digital chromatic aberration correction infrared imaging system was proposed. The principle of digital chromatic aberration correction was given, and the chromatic aberration correction of this system was completed on a computer, which is based on a wavelength-tunable laser local oscillator coherent detection detector. Compared with the chromatic aberration correction method for traditional lenses, this membrane diffractive optical system exhibited characteristics of small size, low weight, and low complexity. The digital chromatic aberration correction application conditions of this membrane diffractive optical system were analyzed. In addition, the main parameters and imaging simulation results were given. The center wavelength of this membrane diffractive optical system is 1.55 µm, and its spectral range is 1.50–1.60 µm. The application of autocorrelation processing to infrared complex images after digital chromatic aberration correction followed by incoherent accumulation of the received corrected complex images based on multiple stepping wavelengths could significantly improve the imaging signal-to-noise ratio.
