摘要: The present invention relates to optical devices for imaging and spectroscopic applications where field curvature is a predominant characteristic. In particular, the optics an device mapping curved image field. comprises focal plane array 20 having plurality of light processing elements 21 adapter 110 mounted in front configured transmit 20. waveguides 111 wherein first ends facing incident are arranged on surface 12, 12 being adapted profile so that divide along into segments. second allocated map segments onto 21.
