Paper Abstract
Conventional IR optical systems with high magnification and switchable FOBs suffer form strong unwanted Narcissus effect. This is mainly caused by retro-reflections from the objective lens back to the detector plane. In this project, a new dual aperture optical configuration has been developed to reduce substantially the Narcissus effect while maintaining good optical performance. A design example is presented in this paper. The relative Narcissus Induced Temperature is reduced from about 1.4 degree C to about 0.1 degree C, thus enhancing the detection range of the IR system.
