The soft X-ray imaging instrument with wide field of view and high resolution is an important device applied to the research of deep physical mechanism of interaction between solar wind and an earth magnetic layer, and can realize soft X-ray panoramic images radiated by the earth magnetic layer and monitor the space weather. When the Solar wind blows to the earth, a large amount of high-valence heavy ions, such as O 7+, are wrapped, and collide with neutral atoms (such as H atoms) in the magnetic layer exotic layer to generate electronic transition, and soft X-rays are radiated outwards, which is called Solar WIND CHARGE eXchange (SWCX). The greater the soft X-ray light intensity radiated as the interaction of solar wind with the magnetic layer intensifies. Therefore, the macroscopic structure and the evolution rule of the earth magnetic layer can be obtained by dynamically describing the soft X-ray intensity graph radiated in the interaction process of solar wind and the earth magnetic layer, and the method has important significance for researching scientific problems such as internal driving force of space weather and the like.

The invention provides an improvement method of a lobster eye light path, which can simultaneously realize the characteristics of wide view field, high spatial resolution and high sensitivity, and specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) Wide field of view
The soft X-ray imaging instrument collects soft X-rays through the lobster eye optical lenses, the soft X-rays are focused through multiple total reflections of micro channels arranged in the lobster eye optical lenses, the incidence surface of the lobster eye optical lenses is spherical, the observation field of view of the imaging instrument is related to the number of the lobster eye optical lenses, and for example, the imaging instrument is applied to soft X-ray panoramic imaging in a pole tip area, and the observation field of view needs to be larger than 9 degrees multiplied by 9 degrees. Since the observation field of view corresponding to the single lobster eye optical lens (42.5 mm×42.5mm, curvature radius 750 mm) is 3.25×3.25 °,9 lobster eye optical lenses are required to be mounted in a 3×3 array, as in mounting position 10 of fig. 2, in order to achieve an index of an observation field of view of more than 9×9 °.
(2) High spatial resolution and high sensitivity

While the use of a tapered capillary array type wide angle lens 9 is required to achieve the same spatial resolution for all directions within the field of view.
The depth-to-width ratio of the micro-channel is set to be 31.25:1, half of the micro-channel describes the size of an imaging focal spot in terms of full WIDTH AT HALF maximum (FWHM), the table is the focal spot width corresponding to the half height of the peak, and through simulation, the full width at half maximum of the imaging focal spot is theoretically 0.04mm, the corresponding spatial resolution is 22', the spatial resolution corresponding to the full width of the focal spot is 3.67', and the high spatial resolution superior to 6 degrees can still be satisfied.
If the image plane is spliced by a plurality of plane sensors, the maximum spatial resolution can be realized only in the direction of the central optical axis, and the resolution can be reduced in other view field directions, so that the image is blurred. The invention introduces the conical capillary array wide-angle lens 9 in the imaging light path, and guides the large-area spherical theoretical focal plane to a single-chip conventional CMOS image sensor, and the spatial resolution is basically unchanged in the image plane of the CMOS image sensor, so that the high spatial resolution performance in the whole field of view can be realized.
