Abstract
Reflecting telescopes have been widely used for many outstanding advantages. But the field of a common reflecting system is too small to meet the needs nowadays. When a correcting lens is inserted at the rear of R-C system, the off-axis image quality is significantly improved. After optimizing with CODE V optical design software, a new design scheme of reflecting telescope with large field of view is achieved.
