The light beam stabilizing technology is widely applied to the high-end fields of space optical communication, photoetching machines and the like. In space optical communication, if the pointing deviation of a light beam at a transmitting end is too large, communication between the two parties fails; in the application of a lithography machine, the pointing direction and the position stability of the illumination light beam greatly restrict the lithography quality and affect the yield of lithography products, so that a light beam stabilizing technology is necessarily introduced to maintain the pointing direction and the position deviation of the light beam within a controllable range.
In the existing light beam stabilizing technology, a light beam position detecting optical system and a light beam position adjusting system consisting of two electric reflecting mirrors are mostly adopted to form a light beam stabilizing device, and the position and the direction of a light beam are corrected to be within a specified tolerance error by controlling the two electric reflecting mirrors which can only rotate in two orthogonal directions according to the output of the light beam position detecting optical system. This approach may have large deviations that affect the accuracy of the stability of the entire system.
