    Abstract

    Fourier transform spectrometer is an important spectral analysis instrument. To research the influence of the dihedral angle error of corner-cube reflectors on interference quality of oscillating Fourier transform spectrometer, the theoretical analysis and computer simulation were carried out. According to the oscillating Fourier transform spectrometer model, the mathematical expressions of the interference intensity and modulation depth with dihedral angle error were deduced. The tolerance of dihedral angle was determined by the modulation depth criterion. The optical design software Zemax was used to establish the model for simulation and verify the results of theoretical derivation. According to the modulation depth criterion, the tolerance of dihedral angle obtained by the theoretical model is 2.52″, and that obtained by the Zemax simulation is 2.38 ″. The error is 0.14 ″, which is acceptable. The analysis results show that the established theoretical model is reasonable, which has certain reference value for the design and installation of oscillating Fourier transform spectrometers.
