Along with the performance improvement of infrared detection devices in recent years, refrigeration detectors are rapidly developed towards the directions of small size, light weight and low power consumption, and the medium wave infrared detectors of the type integrating small refrigerators or split linear refrigerators are widely applied to space-limited infrared photoelectric systems such as weapon thermo-sighting lenses, portable handheld thermal imagers, small unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned vehicles, remote control snipers, remote control weapon stations, missile guide heads and the like due to the characteristics of small size, light weight, high reliability and the like. The miniaturization of the refrigeration detector promotes the infrared continuous zooming optical system to be continuously developed towards the direction of higher magnification, smaller size envelope and lighter weight so as to meet the use requirements of various light and small photoelectric devices for security protection, warning, reconnaissance, search, tracking and the like, so that the light, small and large zooming ratio infrared continuous zooming optical system has wide application requirements.
Through research and research on related documents, domestic refrigeration type medium-wave infrared continuous zooming optical systems have achieved more research results. For example: 3238 Zxft 3238, a design result of a 30-time F #4 focal length 23mm-701mm and a system size 345mm × 176mm × 224mm is realized by adopting a two-element positive group compensation technology by using a medium wave refrigeration detector with 640 × 512@15 μm and U-shaped folding of 10 lenses and two reflectors (infrared and laser engineering 2013,42 (2)). 3238 Zxft 3238, 8 lenses and two reflectors are folded in a U shape, a medium wave refrigeration detector of 640 x 512@15 μm is adapted, and a two-component positive group compensation technology is adopted to realize a design result of 35 times F #4 focal length 15mm-550mm and system size 390mm x 137.5mm x 110mm (infrared and laser engineering 2013,42 (10)). The design result that the focal length of F #2 is 30 times and the total length of the optical system is 460mm is realized by using 8 lenses and adapting a medium wave detector with the wavelength of 640 multiplied by 512@15 mu m and adopting three groups of linkage technologies in the development of a continuous zooming infrared optical system with large zoom ratio and large relative aperture in ocean (the academic newspaper of infrared and millimeter waves 2019,38 (1)). 3238 Zxft 3238, a compact medium-wave infrared continuous zooming optical system with large zoom ratio is designed, 10 lenses are used, a medium-wave detector with a wavelength of 640 x 512@15 mu m is adapted, and a design result of 30 times F #4 focal length of 18mm-550mm of the total length of the optical system of 350mm is realized by adopting a two-component positive group compensation technology (application optics 2019,40 (1)). 3238 Zxft 3238, 6 lenses are used, a medium wave detector with the wavelength of 640 x 512@15 mu m is matched, and a design result that the focal length of F #4.0 is 12 times, the focal length is 25mm-300mm, the system size is 200mm x 140mm x 110mm is realized by adopting a two-component positive group compensation technology (laser and infrared 3262 Zxft 3262 (1)).
