Optical system design based on DMD and triple-pass TIR prism for asteroid exploration
OPTICS EXPRESS(2023)
Abstract
After entering the 21st century, asteroid exploration has become one of the key research directions in the field of deep space exploration. In this article, we present a navigation, imaging, and hyperspectral acquisition integrated optical system designed for asteroid exploration. Based on the pixel -level light modulation capability of the digital micromirror device (DMD), this system introduces a triple -pass total internal reflection (TIR) prism to overcome the limitation of small DMD deflection angles, achieving the co -aperture design of the high -resolution imaging branch and the hyperspectral acquisition branch. In view of the actual usage scenarios, we design a new triple -pass TIR prism and optimize it, correcting the on -axis point coma and astigmatism it introduces, and designing it to be lightweight and compact. Compared to existing optical systems for asteroid exploration, this system offers advantages such as compact structure, no moving parts, high spatial resolution, high spectral resolution, and more flexible imaging modes.
