Abstract
An off-axial three-mirror optical system with freeform surfaces includes a primary mirror, a secondary mirror, a tertiary mirror, and a detector. The primary mirror is located on an incident light path. The secondary mirror is located on a primary mirror reflecting light path. The tertiary mirror is located on a secondary mirror reflecting light path. The detector is located on a tertiary mirror reflecting light path. Each of the primary mirror, the secondary mirror, and the tertiary mirror is an xy polynomial freeform surface up to the fifth order.
