Scientific paper

Two types of catadioptric lenses are described: (1) a lens (x7.5) using a full aperture, and (2) a lens (x30) using a subaperture germanium element to correct spherical aberration. The two telescopes were designed using an 11-mm-diameter exit pupil and a scanner space field of view of 60 deg; only spherical lens surfaces were used. The subaperture corrector lens is found to produce a high-performance cost-effective solution for large-magnification afocal telescopes. The design is ideally suited to systems having apertures in excess of 200 mm, and a diagonal field of view of less than 3 deg.
