The special dispersion and temperature characteristics of diffractive optical element (DOE) make them widely used in optical systems that require both athermalization and achromatic aberrations designs. The multi-layer DOE (MLDOE) can improve the diffraction efficiency of the overall broad waveband, but its diffraction efficiency decreases with changes in ambient temperature. When the ambient temperature changes, the micro-structure heights of MLDOE and the refractive index of the substrate materials change, ultimately affecting its diffraction efficiency, and, further, the optical transform function (OTF). In this paper, the influence of ambient temperature on the diffraction efficiency of MLDOE in a dual-infrared waveband is proposed and discussed, the diffraction efficiency of MLDOE caused by ambient temperature is derived, and a computational imaging method that combines optical design and image restoration is proposed. Finally, a dual-infrared waveband infrared optical system with athermalization and achromatic aberrations corrected based on computational imaging method is designed. Results show that this method can effectively reduce the diffraction efficiency of MLDOE by ambient temperature and improve the imaging quality of hybrid optical systems.

We report a green approach to prepare carbon dots (CDs) with fresh tomatoes as carbon sources and amino acids as dopants (ACDs) by a microwave assisted method. The synthesised CDs were analysed by UV-visible absorption spectroscopy, photoluminescence spectroscopy, high resolution transmission electron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photo electron spectroscopy. An MTT assay was used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of CDs toward L929 cells and found that CDs exhibit low cytotoxicity.
