Abstract
In this work, two off-axis reflective dual-channel zoom optical systems are conceived and designed. These two systems achieve good imaging quality and compact system volume by introducing freeform surfaces. Firstly, the system models of the off-axis reflective dual-channel zoom optical systems are introduced, and the first-order analysis is carried out. Then, a design method of an off-axis reflective dual-channel zoom freeform optical system is introduced, and two examples are designed using this method. In one example, the two channels have a separate primary mirror and share a secondary mirror and a third mirror. The system achieves a zoom ratio of 2 times. The two different channels of the other system have separate third mirror and share the primary mirror and the secondary mirror. The system achieves a zoom ratio of 4 times. The two systems have good imaging performance close to the diffraction limit in the visible light band. Finally, the proposed off-axis reflective dual-channel zoom freeform optical system is analyzed and discussed.
期刊介绍：
Optics Communications invites original and timely contributions containing new results in various fields of optics and photonics. The journal considers theoretical and experimental research in areas ranging from the fundamental properties of light to technological applications. Topics covered include classical and quantum optics, optical physics and light-matter interactions, lasers, imaging, guided-wave optics and optical information processing. Manuscripts should offer clear evidence of novelty and significance. Papers concentrating on mathematical and computational issues, with limited connection to optics, are not suitable for publication in the Journal. Similarly, small technical advances, or papers concerned only with engineering applications or issues of materials science fall outside the journal scope.
