Abstract
The present invention relates to a freeform surface reflective infrared imaging system comprising a primary mirror, a secondary mirror, a tertiary mirror, and an infrared light detector. Each reflective surface of the primary mirror, the secondary mirror, and the tertiary mirror is an xy polynomial freeform surface. A field of view of the freeform surface reflective infrared imaging system is larger than or equal to 40°×30°. An F-number of the freeform surface reflective infrared imaging system is less than or equal to 1.39.
