In the face of the potential demands of customers and markets for continuously improving powder measurement, the range and the range of a measurement sample are continuously expanded while the measurement precision and the accuracy are ensured while paying attention to the cost performance and the operability of measurement of a new generation of laser particle analyzer product. Therefore, higher requirements are put forward for manufacturers of laser particle analyzer systems, and on one hand, structural improvement is carried out on hardware to expand measuring range and measuring precision; on the other hand, the particle size distribution simulation model and the numerical processing algorithm are corrected continuously on the basis of the electromagnetic algorithm, so that when the particle size distribution simulation model and the numerical processing algorithm are more flexible and are oriented to more complex measuring objects, the measurement time is not increased remarkably, the system error is eliminated as much as possible, and the requirements of improving the measurement precision and accuracy are met.
Aiming at a laser particle size analyzer measuring system, in order to further expand the upper limit of large particle testing and the lower limit of micro-nano particle testing, system structure improvements such as a blue light source and an oblique incidence mode have been tried to be introduced in the industry, so that the small particle measuring sensitivity and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are systematically improved, the lower limit of measurement is expanded, and the measuring precision is improved. Meanwhile, in order to expand the measurement upper limit of the measuring range: (A) the measurement sensitivity and the spatial signal detection resolution near the central detector are also considered to be improved, and the interference of the scattered light signal of the Nth ring on the adjacent detector of the Nth +/-1 ring caused by the stray light in the space is avoided; (B) in terms of a light source, time coherence is introduced into the particle lifetime (wave train continuous emission time) distribution of a metastable state energy level, meanwhile, spatial coherence is introduced into factors related to the resonant cavity structure and mode locking design (shown as Gaussian beams), and mechanisms such as collision broadening and Doppler broadening inevitably cause broadening of actual incident wavelength (frequency line) together, so that a dispersion distribution spectrum near He-Ne633nm is calculated in an MIE matrix to realize accurate matching and accurate inversion of measured optical energy distribution.
Therefore, after (1) a system incident light signal is emitted from a laser, the system randomness of the laser (including the decoherence factors introduced by various uncertain factors such as Q-switching in a resonant cavity, a mode competition process, window noise, power supply voltage fluctuation and the like) is realized; (2) in the optical path, the optical signal passes through a series of optical path elements including optical surface interface scattering and space confinement effects such as a spatial filter, a Fourier lens and a scattering window, the introduced stray light noise and wave aberration are collectively classified as random system noise, and the factors are combined together to show random statistical characteristics. Random phase modulation operation is introduced to an ideal monochromatic incident light signal in the random process in a form, the signal is corrected after time-frequency and space-frequency conversion, and random system noise is added into a measurement system, so that system errors are corrected.

Detailed Description
To more clearly describe the present invention, taking He-Ne red laser particle size analyzer with a center wavelength of 633nm based on MIE scattering principle as an example, referring to fig. 1, there is provided a method for reducing system noise in the laser particle size analyzer, comprising the steps of:
s11, acquiring the power spectral density distribution of the light source introducing the system noise;
the system noise includes, among others, phase noise caused by the systematic randomness of the light source itself and stray light noise caused by the series of optical path elements used to measure the optical signal.
According to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a power spectral density algorithm may be used to obtain a power spectral density distribution of a light source that introduces system noise, specifically, a power spectral density distribution of a light source that includes system noise is obtained first, the embodiment of the present invention is based on a laser particle analyzer measurement system, and an adopted system incident light signal is emitted by a laser, generally speaking, a fixed frequency monochromatic light is emitted by a He-Ne laser, and the signal is taken as an incident light signal, and ideally, the signal can be expressed in a simple sine wave form:
I=I0sin(ω0t+θ)
ω 0 = 2 π · c / λ = 2 π · 3 × 10 8 6.33 × 10 - 7 ≈ 2.976 × 10 15 / s
wherein, I0To amplitude, θ is the initial phase.
In the actual experimental test process, as the incident light signals of the system pass through the laser (with time and space coherence) and series light path elements (including the action mechanisms of stray light introduced by surface interface defects of optical elements such as beam expander, pinhole, Fourier lens and the like, secondary imaging introduced by mutual reflection, stray light introduced by ghost and diaphragm blade surface space limitation, and the like), random modulation phase noise and stray light are introduced to randomly modulate the phase noise and the stray light so as to achieve the purpose of improving the system performanceAdd modulation to the incident light, resulting in measurement errors.
Formally, the phase noise and stray light noise are combined into random noise, and the phase term is time-varyingAnd add modulation to the incident light:
wherein α is the amplitude modulation factor,for phase noise, the latter higher order termsPeriodic spurious noise, cnCan be expressed as cos omegamnt。
Neglecting amplitude modulation factor α, neglecting stray noise, making initial phase theta-0 and random phaseAre combined intoIs available in a form
Expanded using the trigonometric sum and difference formula becauseIs a small amount tending to 0, and hence can be obtained Therefore, the method comprises the following steps:
wherein, ω is0=2π·c/λ=2.976×1015/s
In the above formula, the first term is the principle of no random phase modulation process to input the light intensity signal, and the second term is the separately separated random modulation phase noiseWherein,as time-dependent coefficient terms for modulating the intensity of the optical signal, except for the effects of stray light introduced by series of optical path elementsThe mechanism is also related to the stability, the time coherence and the spatial coherence of the selected laser source, and the beam waist width and the divergence angle in the specification of the laser source can be referred to. In this example, one may chooseThe pseudo-random sequence of intervals is a discrete term that substantially participates in the convolution in the following equation. Let the second term of the above formula beω0=2π·c/λ=2.976×1015S, its autocorrelation function (ACF) is expressed as the sum of its convolution:
ω0=2π·c/λ=2.976×1015/s
wherein,
according to Wiener-Khinchin theorem, ACF and corresponding Power Spectral Density (PSD) are Fourier transform pairs, and the PSD can be expressed as:
selectingAnd random time-varying discrete terms of the interval can be calculated to obtain phase noise which has a shape similar to an exponential decay curve with the incident frequency as the center and continuous double-sideband deviation from the center frequency.
Fig. 2 shows the normalized power spectral density profile derived according to the present example, with the center frequency wavelength at 633nm, which exhibits a double sideband distribution.
By using a similar derivation process, an expression of the spurious noise can be obtained, and the power spectrum-frequency distribution of the spurious noise is farther away from the central wavelength and is in discrete distribution and lower in weight compared with the double-sideband distribution of the random phase modulation noise. Error mechanisms such as random phase modulation noise and stray noise cause dispersion of the center frequency (or laser monochromaticity) of incident light, i.e. dispersion of the power-frequency spectrum, and cause 'deviation' of the intensity of scattered light signals along with the distribution of scattering angles, thereby introducing systematic errors in the acquisition of scattered light intensity by spatial detectors.
Random modulation phase noise and stray lightIn addition to the modulation of the incident light, the form of (a) may also be in the form of a trigonometric function, such as sin (n ω)0t) or cos (n ω)0t) where ω is0The modulation is added to the incident light in the form of fundamental frequency, n is an odd number, or in the form of an exponential function, a composite function of a trigonometric function and the exponential function, and a composite analytical function formed by the composite function and a sigmoid function.
According to another preferred embodiment of the invention, a high-precision spectrometer can be used for acquiring the power spectral density distribution of a light source introducing system noise, and particularly, a spectral measuring instrument for measuring the relation of wavelength/frequency-intensity of incident light by using a grating/prism light splitting principle is used for directly acquiring the phase modulation noise distribution of double sidebands through experimental tests.
S12, setting interpolation point frequencies and amplitude weights corresponding to the interpolation point frequencies based on the acquired power spectral density distribution of the light source;
as can be derived in step S11, the original single-frequency signal is spread due to the random phase modulation mechanism of the system. In the embodiment, a difference algorithm is adopted to approximately obtain the distribution of the power density spectrumThe curve, in particular, the 2N +1 (N0, 1, 2.) point frequency (ω) may be interpolated according to the power spectral density curve function shown derived above0,ω0m1,ω0m1,ω0m2,ω0m2...) and intensity data, and normalizing the intensity to a weight (w)0,w1,w2,w3,w4....);
Regarding the specific spread range of the double sideband, i.e. the effective weighted point selection range (such as 3 points/5 points/. -), depending on the actual device conditions, this is mainly related to (a) the light source quality; (B) before laser reaches a detector, the laser passes through optical elements such as a beam expander, a spatial filter, a Fourier lens and a measuring optical window, so that the time and spatial coherence decoherence effect is caused, and the surface interface defects of the optical elements introduce stray light, reflect each other to introduce secondary imaging, ghost and diaphragm blade surface space confinement introduce stray light and other action mechanisms; (C) the spatial image distortion of the wavefront function (which can be theoretically characterized by a 37-degree Zernike function), and (D) the defocus systematic error from a flat detector, etc.
Therefore, in the actual design process, for the He — Ne laser (633nm) in this embodiment, five difference points can be taken, the interpolation points have respective frequencies (625nm, 629nm, 633nm, 637nm, 641nm), and the normalized weights corresponding to the intensities can be respectively (0.05, 0.175, 0.55, 0.175, 0.05).
And S13, setting simulation parameters, respectively calculating corresponding MIE matrixes for each interpolation point frequency, and linearly superposing each obtained MIE matrix to form a total MIE matrix for fitting with the actually measured optical signal array.
Firstly, setting a software simulation environment, wherein polystyrene standard spherical particles with the diameter of 1 micron are used as samples to be detected, and the optical parameters of the samples to be detected are as follows: the refractive index n is 1.596, the absorptivity is 0, the environment medium is water, the refractive index is 1.33, 70 MIE matrix characteristic particle diameter sections are arranged, the number of detector array channels is 50, parameters such as detector space position parameters, focal length, incident light frequency and amplitude weight corresponding to each frequency need to be initialized to participate in electromagnetic field calculation, then strict electromagnetic field simulation calculation is carried out to obtain an MIE matrix,
specifically, an MIE matrix corresponding to 2N +1(N ═ 0, 1, 2.) point frequencies is calculated, respectively: MIE _ (omega)0),MIE_(ω0m1),MIE_(ω0m1),MIE_(ω0m2),MIE_(ω0m2) ...; and finally, respectively applying weights to the MIE matrixes corresponding to the 2N +1 frequency points, and linearly superposing to form a total MIE matrix: MIE _ (Total) ═ w0·MIE_(ω0)+w1·MIE_(ω0m1)+w2·MIE_(ω0m1)+w3·MIE_(ω0m2)+w4·MIE_(ω0m2) +., MIE _ (Total) was used to fit to the measured scattered light signal.
In this example, the overall MIE matrix formed:
MIE_(Total)=0.55MIE_(633nm)+0.175MIE_(637nm)+0.175MIE_(629nm)+0.05MIE_(641nm)+0.05MIE_(625nm)
in order to obtain actually measured scattered light signals, the laser particle size analyzer adopted by the invention is as shown in fig. 3, a filtered and collimated uniform parallel monochromatic light beam irradiates a sample cell to generate optical signals, a fourier transform lens is arranged at a proper position for measuring scattered light at different angles, a group of multi-element photoelectric detectors are arranged on a back focal plane of the fourier lens, the scattered light at different angles irradiates a main photoelectric detector and auxiliary detectors at other spatial positions through the fourier lens to obtain the distribution of scattered light intensity, and the received signals are stored in a computer memory or other media in the form of vectors and matrixes after being amplified and A/D sampled.
Finally, substituting the total MIE matrix and the actually measured optical signal array obtained by simulation calculation into a regression model and a fitting algorithm to carry out inversion calculation of characteristic particle size distribution; and finally, carrying out inversion to obtain the distribution information of the representative characteristic particle size section of the measured sample.
In the fitting calculation, an interpolation method, a regression model and an iteration condition are set; the interpolation method comprises linear interpolation and/or weighting; the regression model involved using the gauss-Newton method, gradient descent method, least squares method, Levenberg-Marguardt damped descent method; the fitting method may involve a bilinear refinement method, lagrange polynomial fitting, cubic spline, attenk, weight averaging, multiple quadratic, bicubic, telluric, wavelet, bessel, efree, finite difference, gaussian, hermit, newton's difference removal, close refinement, or theler refinement algorithms.
FIG. 4 shows the normalized optical power signal distribution curve of the latex standard spherical particles with a diameter of 1 μm, the simulated optical power signal curve of the latex standard spherical particles with a diameter of 1 μm with random phase noise included, and the simulated optical power signal curve of the latex standard spherical particles with a diameter of 1 μm with no random phase noise included. It can be seen from these three distribution curves that the matching degree of the simulation curve with random phase noise and the actual measurement curve is better than the matching degree of the simulation curve without random phase noise and the actual measurement curve. Meanwhile, the root mean square error between the two former curves (RMSE1 ═ 0.0206) is calculated to be lower than that between the two latter curves (RMSE2 ═ 0.0562). The random noise is counted to improve the fitting level of the simulation curve and the actually measured optical energy distribution curve.
