Herein, we propose a super-oscillation optical field foveated local super-resolution imaging method. Firstly, the post-diffraction integral equation of the foveated modulation device is constructed, the objective function and constraints are established, and the structural parameters of the amplitude modulation device are optimally solved by using genetic algorithm. Secondly, the solved data have been input into the software for point diffusion function analysis. We have studied the super-resolution performance of different ring band amplitude types, and find the 8-ring 0-1 amplitude type has the best super-resolution performance. Finally, the principle experimental device is built according to the simulation parameters, and the super-oscillatory device parameters is loaded onto the amplitude type spatial light modulator for the principle experiments, in which the super-oscillation foveated local super-resolution imaging system is able to perform high image contrast imaging in the whole field of view and super-resolution imaging in the foveated field of view area. As a result, this method achieves the 1.25 times super-resolution magnification in the foveated field of view area, which realizes the super-resolutio n imaging of local field while keeping the resolution of other fields unchanged. Experiments verify the feasibility and effectiveness of our system.
