Abstract

The technology of multi-scale optical systems could be used to achieve a balance of the field-of-view and F-number, and helpful enhance the system image quality. This paper designed a multi-scale optical lens, and finished the work of demonstrating theoretically the feasibility of curved image together with the array lens. An idea has been proposed in this paper, using the approximately concentric chief rays combining with balance aberrations in each channel of the array lens to alleviate the aberrations of the whole optical system. Lastly, we designed a specific optical path and completed the experimental analysis. Experimental results show that the optical layout of the multi-scale optical lens can achieve a field of view of 60 degree while the aberration balance is well.
