Hyperspectral resolution ultraviolet dual channel common optical path imaging spectrometer

Based on the requirement of multichannel detection for hyperspectral resolution imaging spectrometer, we design a hyperspectral resolution ultraviolet dual channel common optical path imaging spectrometer whose telescopic system adopts an off-axis three mirror structure with an off-axis field of view, and whose spectroscopic system applies a modified small and light weight Offner structure. Through the theoretical analysis of Offner spectrometer structures, initial structural parameters of a dual channel common optical path Offner that met the requirements of hyperspectral resolution were achieved. In order to improve the imaging quality of the imaging spectrometer, meniscus lenses were introduced into Offner structure, and the system was gradually optimized. Eventually, a dual channel common optical path imaging spectrometer was obtained with operating bands of 280~300 nm and 370~400 nm. When the Nyquist frequency is 27.8 lp/mm, the modulation transfer function (MTF) of both channels is better than 0.8, the full field mean square root radius (RMS) is less than 9 μm. and the spectral resolution is better than 0.1 nm. The design of this imaging spectrometer has important implications for the miniaturization and integration design of space-based hyperspectral detection imaging spectrometers.
