可调谐位相型光瞳滤波器的横向光学超分辨和轴向扩展焦深

为克服传统光瞳滤波器的缺点，实现系统光学超分辨性能的可调谐性，设计了一种新型可调谐的位相型光瞳滤波器.该光瞳滤波器包括两个λ/4波片和置于其间的λ/2波片，其中λ/2波片分为两个可作相对旋转的区域.研究结果表明，通过旋转λ/2波片的任意一区域不仅可以实现系统横向光学超分辨能力的可调性，而且可以在横向分辨能力提高的同时实现光学系统轴向焦深的扩展以及轴向焦移. 关键词： 光学超分辨 位相型光瞳滤波器 可调谐

Transverse superresolution and axial extended focal depth realized by the tunable phase pupil filter

In order to overcome the drawback of the conventional pupil filters and realize the tunable superresolution of the optical system, a new type of tunable pure phase filter composed of a half-wave plate located between two quarter-wave plates is presented in this paper, in which the half-wave plate is made of two zones. The simulation results show that with such a pupil filter the tunable transverse superresolution as well as the axial extended focal depth of the optical system can be realized by rotating any zone of the half-wave plate.
