DMD 106 is according to the indication that comes Self Control PC 113, and the inclination angle of switching each tiny mirror independently is the state of each tiny mirror.For the indication of DMD 106 be for example by whether will represent should irradiating laser 2 Value Datas be arranged as the data representation of two-dimensional array shape, PC 113 sends this indication from control.
LASER Light Source 103, speculum 105 and DMD 106 are configured to: when the incident light that incides DMD 106 from speculum 105 was reflected the tiny mirror of ON state, catoptrical direction was a vertical.In addition; On the light path on the surface that is arrived machined object 102 by the tiny mirror of ON state reflection and be reflected mirror 121 and semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens 107 laser light reflected, dispose have imaging len 108, the projection optical system of semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens 109 and object lens 110.Promptly shone at the surface of machined object 102 by projection via this projection optical system by the tiny mirror laser light reflected of ON state.This projection optical system constitutes the position that the surface that makes machined object 102 and DMD 106 are in conjugation.
The inclination angle of the inclination angle of the OFF state of tiny mirror during with the ON state is different.Therefore, the incident light that incides DMD 106 from speculum 105 is reflected to the direction different with the direction that arrives speculum 121 the tiny mirror of OFF state, thereby is not irradiated on the machined object 102.In Fig. 1, the with dashed lines arrow is represented by the catoptrical light path of the tiny mirror of OFF state reflection.
Therefore, through each tiny mirror being controlled to be ON state or OFF state, whether can control with each tiny mirror with the position corresponding of laser radiation to the machined object 102.That is, through using DMD 106, can be according to position, direction, shape arbitrarily to machined object 102 irradiating lasers.
In addition, laser processing device 100 possesses illumination light source 111.
In the shooting of machined object 102, need under the situation of illumination light, from the illumination light of illumination light source 111 via lens 122 by semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens 109 reflections, and be irradiated to the surface of machined object 102 via object lens 110.In addition, also can replace video camera 112, and use CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor: camera head such as video camera CMOS complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor).
Laser and illumination light all incide the photo-electric conversion element of video camera 112 via the optical system with object lens 110, semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens 109, imaging len 108, semi-transparent semi-reflecting lens 107, lens 123 at the lip-deep reverberation of machined object 102.Thus, make a video recording in the surface of 112 pairs of machined objects 102 of video camera.
Control PC 113 control laser processing devices 100 integral body.Realize input part 114 by input equipments such as keyboard, indicating equipments.Be sent to control PC 113 from the indication of input part 114 inputs.
In addition, display part 115 is according to the indication that comes Self Control PC 113, display image, literal etc.Display part 115 for example roughly shows the image of the machined object 102 that is photographed by video camera 112 in real time.At this, also will be called " live image " by the image that video camera 112 is taken and is taken into by control PC113.
In this embodiment, control PC 113 both can be the general calculation machine, also can be special-purpose control device.Can be by any function that realizes controlling PC 113 in hardware, software, firmware and their combination.For example; Can by following PC (personal computer) Personal Computer: computer realization control such as PC113: this PC possess CPU (Central Processing Unit: CPU), ROM (Read Only Memory: read-only storage) etc. nonvolatile memory, random access memory), connecting interface between external memory such as hard disk unit and the external equipment (Random Access Memory:, and they are connected with each other through bus to be used as the RAM of workspace.CPU is loaded among the RAM and execution through the program that will be stored in hard disk unit or the computer-readable portable storage media etc., realizes controlling the function of PC 113.
Then, utilize following object lesson that the summary of action of the laser processing device 100 of first embodiment is described: machined object 102 is substrates, and laser processing device 100 is the laser repair apparatus that come repair-deficiency to the defective irradiating laser of substrate surface.
The corresponding of position relation between the pattern on obtaining the pattern that formed by above-mentioned DMD 106 and being formed on machined object 102 is exactly the calibration that is suitable in the present invention.
And aforesaid laser processing device 100 is carried out following the processing.
At first, be configured as the above-mentioned laser of the shape of calibrating pattern arbitrarily through above-mentioned DMD 106, use the image of the above-mentioned photoreceptor that video camera 112 takes above-mentioned laser illuminated to the irradiation of photoreceptor arbitrarily.Then, extract taken calibrating pattern image by image processing part 116, and detect each pattern position.
Fig. 2 is the figure of the example of expression calibrating pattern.
As shown in Figure 2, calibrating pattern is made up of the figure of the different a plurality of points of area.For example, the example of the calibrating pattern shown in Fig. 2 (1) is made up of 4 circle.
In addition, as the photoreceptor that collimating marks is carried out sensitization, for example under the situation of laser that with the high energy radiation wavelength is 1.355nm, can use raw glass (plain ガ ラ ス).In addition, be under the situation of laser of 2.266nm at wavelength, through shining, can carry out sensitization to collimating marks to the glass that has been coated with resist equably.
The laser processing device 100 that photographs the image of photoreceptor is carried out calibration.Promptly; Calculate the deviation value between the shape of shape and above-mentioned calibrating pattern of laser vestige of the above-mentioned image that photographs through transformation parameter calculating part 120; According to this deviation value that calculates, calculating is used to proofread and correct so that the shape of above-mentioned laser on the above-mentioned machined object transformation parameter consistent with the shape of above-mentioned input pattern.Then, according to the transformation parameter that aforementioned calculation goes out, the laser radiation that adjustment is carried out to above-mentioned machined object 102 according to above-mentioned input pattern.
At this, the object of calibration is described.
Fig. 3 is that expression is from the figure of input pattern to the version of output pattern.
For the ease of explanation, the reference axis of the transverse direction of the image that below will be photographed by video camera 112 is called the x axle, and the reference axis of longitudinal direction is called the y axle.In addition, the size of image is arbitrarily, but in this embodiment, supposing has 640 pixels on the x direction, 480 pixels are arranged on the y direction.In addition, this size is expressed as " 640 * 480 pixel ".(x y) comes each locations of pixels in the presentation video to group through x coordinate and y coordinate.That is, the coordinate in the upper left corner of the irradiation pattern among Fig. 3 310 and the lower right corner is respectively (0,0) and (639,479).
The irradiation pattern 310 of Fig. 3 is that expression should be to the pattern of which part irradiating laser of the image that is photographed by video camera 112.Therefore, (x y) representes the group that the positions in the irradiation pattern 310 also can be through x coordinate and y coordinate, and the size of irradiation pattern 310 and the image that is photographed by video camera 112 likewise are 640 * 480 pixels.In the example of Fig. 3, irradiation pattern 310 is expressed the laser that is equivalent to white cross shape that the black of the white cross shape that intersected by the thick line parallel with the x axle of the core that is positioned at image and the thick line parallel with the y axle to the part on the machined object 102 irradiation and background constitutes.
In this embodiment, as follows from input part 114 indication irradiation patterns 310.
At first, be used on the basis that the illumination light of illumination light source 111 is thrown light on, under the state of irradiating laser not, making a video recording by 112 pairs of machined objects 102 of video camera.Then, image processing part 116 is taken into taken image and outputs to display part 115.
Afterwards, the operator is seeing the image that outputs to display part 115, from input part 114 indication should irradiating laser scope.Via with input part 114 and the interface that is connected of control PC 113, the form with the data of the irradiation pattern 310 of the size of 640 * 480 pixels offers control PC 113 with this indication.
In addition, also can be from the data of external device (ED) to control PC 113 transmission irradiation patterns 310.For example, be under the situation of laser repair apparatus such as FPD substrate at laser processing device 100, the data that also can send irradiation patterns 310 to control PC 113 from flaw detection apparatus.Perhaps, also can be that the laser repair apparatus possesses image recognition portion, by the shape that image recognition portion comes defect recognition through image recognition processing, the data of the irradiation pattern 310 of the shape that the generation expression is identified also output to control PC 113.
The data of irradiation pattern 310 can both be provided to control PC 113 in either event.So control PC 113 generates according to irradiation pattern 310 and is used for transmitting with data 320 to the ON of each tiny mirror of DMD106 indication and the DMD of OFF.It is to represent to import the data of pattern that DMD transmits with data 320, is transmitted (promptly sending) to DMD 106.
In DMD 106, tiny mirror is aligned to the two-dimensional array shape, and (u v) representes the position of tiny mirror to group that can be through u coordinate and v coordinate.In addition, below for the purpose of simplifying the description, and the coordinate of the pixel of hypothesis in the image (x, y) (u v) has the relation of x=u and y=v with the coordinate of tiny mirror.As long as suitably dispose the initial point that tiny mirror is also suitably confirmed the uv coordinate system, this relation just can be set up, and therefore following explanation is loss of generality not.
At this, likewise supposing to represent irradiating laser and when representing not shine with black, DMD transmits also can show as black and white 2 value images with data 320 with white with irradiation pattern 310.In other words, can the DMD transmission be shown as following black and white 2 value images with data 320:, represent position (u, point v) with representing to make tiny mirror to become the white of ON state or representing to make tiny mirror to become the black of OFF state.
In this embodiment, suppose in DMD 106, to be arranged with 800 * 600 tiny mirror.That is, the number of tiny mirror is more than the pixel count of the image that is photographed by video camera 112.Therefore, expression DMD transmission is the images on every side that surround the image of expression irradiation pattern 310 with black edge (margin) with the image of data 320.Will be explained below the reason at such edge.
That is, (x, the color of y) locating (white or black) transmits with expression DMD that (u, the color of v) locating is equal with the u=x of the image of data 320, the position of v=y in the position of the image of expression irradiation pattern 310.And (u v) is under the situation in the scope of u<0 or 640≤u or v<0 or 480≤v, and expression DMD transmits position with the image of data 320, and (u, the color of v) locating is a black in the position.
In addition; In Fig. 3; The rectangular-shaped frame line of adularescent in DMD transmits with data 320, but this frame line is the scope that is used to express 640 * 480 pixels suitable with irradiation pattern 310 for the ease of explanation, does not represent to make the tiny mirror on the white box line to become the ON state.
In addition, in this embodiment, in DMD transmitted with data 320, the width at the edge of white box line top and the edge of bottom equated, and the width at the edge on the edge on the right and the left side also equates.But, confirm that suitably the width at edge gets final product.
Transmit with the aforesaid relation between the data 320 according to irradiation pattern 310 and DMD, control PC 113 generates the DMD transmission with data 320 according to the data of irradiation pattern 310.As stated, transmit with data 320 in order to generate DMD, control PC 113 is as long as append the edge of black simply around irradiation pattern 310.
Then, region setting part 117 is through transmitting with data 320 to DMD 106 output DMD, comes each tiny mirror in 800 * 600 tiny mirror that the indication of ON or OFF is provided.
At this, suppose not carry out adjustment, and the tiny mirror of DMD 106 itself becomes ON state or OFF state according to the DMD transmission that is provided with data 320 based on calibration, penetrate laser from LASER Light Source 103.
In this case, general, the pattern that shines the laser on the machined object 102 is different with desirable irradiation pattern 310.This is to depart from, be out of shape because in the optical system of laser processing device 100 and/or camera system, exist.
For example, might speculum, lens distortion, perhaps depart from the installation site of each structural element of laser processing device 100, perhaps exists setting angle to depart from and the parts installed after the original angle rotation.
The live image 330 of Fig. 3 is at the example that is irradiated onto the image that is photographed by video camera 112 under the situation on the machined object 102 like this with desirable irradiation pattern 310 different patterns.Therefore, the position on the live image 330 can represent that also the size of live image 330 is 640 * 480 pixels with the xy coordinate system.
In the live image 330 of Fig. 3, represented the actual illuminated part of laser with white, represent not have irradiated part with black.Live image 330 and irradiation pattern 310 are compared and can know, the cross shape of white moves to the positive direction of x axle, and then by being rotated counterclockwise about 15 degree.In fact is not so parallel mobile (displacement) and rotation from irradiation pattern 310 to the distortion of live image 330, comprises that also amplifying/dwindling is the distortion of shapes such as transformation of scale, detrusion.
Therefore,, need calibrate, adjust the irradiation of laser according to the result of calibration in order to prevent such distortion.
In this embodiment, will regard a kind of result of conversion because of the distortion that departs from, is out of shape the irradiation pattern as above-mentioned that causes that is present in laser processing device 100 as, on mathematics, modelling is carried out in this conversion.
Then, parameter and the processing of adjusting according to the parameter of being obtained of obtaining this modeled conversion on mathematics of expression through calibration is described.
At first, calibration steps is described.
The calibrating pattern that control PC 113 provides the figure by the different a plurality of points of area of that kind as shown in Figure 2 to constitute to region setting part 117.Because area is respectively different, make through image handle carry out, become easy to the calibrating pattern that region setting part 117 provides and the identification of burning between the figure at the lip-deep calibrating pattern of photoreceptor.Therefore, calibrating pattern be so long as can distinguish each point in 3 points, just can be the pattern of shape arbitrarily.
Then, burn lip-deep calibrating pattern through video camera 112 shootings at photoreceptor.Image processing part 116 detects the position of centre of gravity and the area of each figure from the image of the calibrating pattern that obtained.Likewise, image processing part 116 detects the position of centre of gravity and the area of each figure from the image of the calibrating pattern that offers region setting part 117.
Then, according to 3 points in the calibrating pattern that offers region setting part 117 and burn the position relation between 3 points in the lip-deep calibrating pattern of photoreceptor, make the transformation matrix of photosensitive surfaces from region setting part 117.
The following transformation matrix of making.
That is, will be made as the speculum coordinate figure, will be made as the irradiation coordinate figure through the position corresponding that LASER Light Source 103 burns on photosensitive surface with above-mentioned reflector position by the reflector position that region setting part 117 is made as ON.
Then, obtain transformation matrix through two following steps.
At first, as first step, obtain the irradiation coordinate figure of the speculum coordinate figure of a plurality of points and corresponding with it a plurality of points.
Through provide to region setting part 117 with DMD 106 on the 2 value images of two dimension of ON, regulation that OFF is corresponding one to one of whole tiny mirror, can adjust DMD 106.Therefore, be sent to region setting part 117, adjust the shape of the pattern that forms by DMD 106 through 2 value images with the figure that comprises position a plurality of points different of that kind as shown in Figure 2 with area.Then, through carry out the laser after the spatial modulation from LASER Light Source 103 irradiation, come photosensitive surface is carried out burning of the pattern corresponding with 2 value images.Take the image of the photosensitive surface that comprises the pattern that is burnt through video camera 112.2 value images that offer region setting part 117 and the image that burns the pattern on photosensitive surface are sent to image processing part 116, carry out the calibrating pattern coordinate and detect processing.
Fig. 4 is the flow chart that expression calibrating pattern coordinate detects the flow process of handling.
In step S401,116 pairs of image processing parts burn the image of the pattern on photosensitive surface and carry out white as pattern and with black binaryzation as a setting.As the method for binaryzation, the known method such as binary conversion treatment as long as employing is floated.Also can white be made the 2 value images that offer region setting part 117 as a setting as pattern and with black.
Then, in step S402,,, obtain the prospect binary image relevant with pattern implementing to implement expansion process after the shrink process to the image after the binaryzation.Shrink process is the processing that makes the regions contract of background, and through this shrink process, having eliminated line width is the part below the Rack.Then, to the zone of the remaining pattern of shrink process, revert to the zone of original size through expansion process.
In step S403, the isolated area of having implemented the binary image after expansion process and the shrink process is marked.The method of mark is arbitrarily, as long as be suitable for known method.
Then, in step S404, calculate the position of centre of gravity of each pattern, in step S405, calculate the area of each pattern.Then; In step S406; Size through according to the area that in step S405, calculates sorts, and the pattern of a plurality of points on the 2 value images that offer region setting part 117 and the pattern that burns a plurality of points on photosensitive surface are mapped respectively.For example, the area in the pattern of a plurality of points on the 2 value images that offer region setting part 117 is maximum pattern regards corresponding as with the maximum pattern of area in the pattern that burns a plurality of points on photosensitive surface.
Like this, obtain the pattern and the corresponding relation that burns the pattern of a plurality of points on photosensitive surface of a plurality of points on the 2 value images that offer region setting part 117.
Then, as second step,, obtain affine transformation matrix according to the irradiation coordinate figure of the speculum coordinate figure of a plurality of points and corresponding with it a plurality of points.
For example, in Fig. 3, DMD transmits with data 320 except the edge, and is identical with irradiation pattern 310.Therefore, we can say that in fact irradiation pattern 310 is exactly the input pattern to the DMD106 appointment.And live image 330 is not carry out any adjustment and producing the output pattern that in image, produces under the situation of the laser that is out of shape to irradiation on the machined object 102 accordingly with this input pattern.Therefore, can regard as from irradiation pattern 310 is owing to causing to the conversion of above-mentioned output pattern from above-mentioned input pattern to the distortion of live image 330.
In this embodiment, adopt following Mathematical Modeling: this conversion is the affine transformation of representing through transformation matrix T.That is, each element of transformation matrix T is the transformation parameter that in calibration, should calculate.
As stated, input pattern and output pattern can represent with the xy coordinate system, in addition, even regard the uv coordinate system as identical with the xy coordinate system according to u=x and v=y all the time, also is no problem for the calculating of transformation parameter.
Promptly; Mathematical Modeling in this embodiment is following: transmit with the coordinate (u in the data 320 with DMD; (x, y) the transformation matrix T through the expression affine transformation is transformed to speculum coordinate in the live image 330 (x ', y ') to irradiation coordinate in the irradiation pattern 310 that v) equates.
If it is be formulated this Mathematical Modeling, then following.
x ′ = a 1 x + b 1 y + d 1 y ′ = a 2 x + b 2 y + d 2
x ′ y ′ = a b 1 d 1 a 2 b 2 d 2 × x y 1
At this, be T if establish affine transformation matrix, then do
x ′ y ′ = T × x y 1
This affine transformation matrix T representes the conversion of the unique position of optional position on the laser radiation image from the DMD image.Therefore, through the DMD image being carried out linear transformation, can carry out and the laser radiation identical the picture shape arbitrarily of DMD image setting according to inverse-transform matrix T '.
Then, the processing that utilizes aforesaid calibrating pattern computational transformation matrix T is described.
Fig. 5 is the flow chart as the computational process of the transformation matrix T of transformation parameter of expression in first embodiment.
At first, in step S501, control PC 113 for example makes the calibrating pattern as Fig. 2 institute illustration and outputs to region setting part 117.In addition, control PC 113 also can read the calibrating pattern that is kept in advance in the storage part 119, to replace making calibrating pattern.
Then, in step S502, to DMD 106, the calibrating pattern that will in step S501, make is appointed as the input pattern.
Then, in step S503, control PC 113 obtains coordinate from the data of calibrating pattern.For example, under the situation of the calibrating pattern of Fig. 2 (1), control PC 113 image recognition processing through in image processing part 116, carrying out identify 4 circles from calibrating pattern, calculate and obtain the coordinate at the center (being center of gravity) of 4 circles that identified respectively.These 4 coordinates are made as coordinate a, b, c, d.
Then, in step S504, irradiating laser.That is, by region setting part 117 control DMD 106, feasible ON state and the OFF state that switches tiny mirror according to calibrating pattern.Thus, the laser that penetrates from LASER Light Source 103 is carried out spatial modulation, and this laser projection (i.e. irradiation) is arrived the surface of photoreceptor via DMD 106 according to calibrating pattern.
Then, in step S505, video camera 112 is taken photoreceptor, is taken into the data of (promptly catching) taken image from video camera 112 through control PC113.In this image, there be the output pattern corresponding with calibrating pattern.
Then, in step S506, control PC 113 obtains a ', b ', c ', this coordinate of 4 of d ' as follows from the output pattern of the image that among step S505, is taken into.
That is, control PC 113 at first is transformed to black and white 2 value images with the image that is taken into.For example, carry out this binaryzation based on the brightness value of each pixel and the comparison of threshold value.In the black and white 2 value images after conversion, the zone of white is the area part that has shone guiding light, and the zone of black is the zone of not shining guiding light.Then, control PC 113 utilizes the black and white 2 value images after the conversion, carries out following processing.
For example, under the situation of the calibrating pattern of (1) of using Fig. 2, control PC 113 is through image recognition processing, the existence and the position of identification and circle or oval approximate shape.Consequently identify 4 shapes.In the example of the calibrating pattern of Fig. 2 (1), suppose according to the area order from small to large of 4 circles corresponding with an a, b, c, d respectively.Therefore, control PC 113 calculates the area of 4 shapes that identified, and according to its area order from small to large shape and some a ', b ', c ', d ' is mapped.And then control PC 113 calculates the coordinate of 4 shapes center of gravity separately that is identified, and obtains these 4 coordinates and is used as a ', b ', c ', this coordinate of 4 of d '.
Then, in step S507, control PC 113 calculates aforesaid transformation matrix T.Then, the data with the transformation matrix T that makes are kept in the storage parts 119 such as RAM or hard disk.
Then, method of adjustment in first embodiment is described.
Fig. 6 is the figure that is used to explain method of adjustment.
Irradiation pattern 310 shown in Figure 6 and DMD transmit with data 320 with shown in Figure 3 identical.In addition, Fig. 6 is the figure that utilizes the transformation matrix T identical with Fig. 3 to describe.
In the first embodiment, the control PC 113 of Fig. 2 reads transformation matrix T and the inverse-transform matrix T ' that calculates and be kept in the storage part 119.In addition, as the inverse matrix (=T of transformation matrix T -1) calculate inverse-transform matrix T '.That is, inverse-transform matrix T ' is the inverse transformation parameter that expression utilizes the inverse transformation of the conversion that the transformation matrix T as transformation parameter carries out.In addition, the data of inverse-transform matrix T ' also are stored in the storage part 119.
In addition, control PC 113 receives irradiation pattern 310 from input part 114, generates DMD and transmits with data 320.And then, utilize inverse-transform matrix T ' that the DMD transmission is carried out conversion with data 320 and generate the DMD transmission, and output to region setting part 117 with data 621.
Then, region setting part 117 transmits DMD and is appointed as the input pattern that sends to DMD 106 with data 621, controls DMD 106.That is, control PC 113 has following function: via region setting part 117, to DMD 106, the DMD transmission is appointed as the input pattern with data 621.
In example shown in Figure 6, with Fig. 3 likewise, transformation matrix T representes will be to the conversion of moving and synthesizing gained by the rotation of counterclockwise about 15 degree of the positive direction of x axle.Therefore, in Fig. 6, utilizing DMD that inverse-transform matrix T ' conversion obtains to transmit with data 621 is DMD to be transmitted with the pattern of data 320 about 15 spend and move the pattern of gained afterwards to the negative direction of x axle by turning clockwise.
Then, when for corrective pitting when LASER Light Source 103 has penetrated laser, this laser transmits with data 621 as the DMD106 that imports patterns via designated DMD, and shines on the machined object 102.In this embodiment, make a video recording by 112 pairs of machined objects 102 of video camera at this, and be taken into image from video camera 112.The image that is taken into like this is the live image 631 of Fig. 6.
As shown in Figure 6, appear in the output pattern in the live image 631 owing to cancel out each other, so become the pattern that equates with irradiation pattern 310 because of the distortion of inverse-transform matrix T ' generations with because of the distortion of transformation matrix T generation.
Like this; Output pattern on the live image 631 equates with irradiation pattern 310; This means: through by the adjustment carried out of control PC 113, according to the shape that should process to the correct position ground irradiating laser that should process, and with should correct irradiation shooting being live image 631.
In addition; Transmission compares and can know with data 621 with DMD with data 320 through DMD is transmitted; The result who utilizes inverse-transform matrix T ' to carry out conversion is; In DMD transmitted with data 621, the white portion that expression should make tiny mirror become the ON state might exceed the scope of u<0 or 640≤u or v<0 or 480≤v.Therefore, in this embodiment, used the DMD 106 of the tiny mirror of (for example 800 * 600) more than the pixel count (for example 640 * 480 pixels) of image that possesses expression irradiation pattern 310.In this case, like Fig. 3, shown in Figure 6, the input pattern of DMD 106 appointments is represented that promptly the image that DMD transmits with data 320 is the image on every side that surrounds the image of expression irradiation pattern 310 with the edge of black (promptly representing not irradiates light).
