Embodiment 1
Use fiber coupled laser as light source by taking the depth of parallelism of commercial fizeau interferometer measurement eyeglass as an example in conjunction with Fig. 2 It is compared with conventional light source, the imaging effect of interference pattern in the case of two kinds of observation.
One kind being used for the homogenized fiber coupled laser of interference pattern background, including laser 1 (He-Ne laser, operating wave Long 633nm), (Soret is rich, model PAF2-A4A, focal length 4mm, clear aperature 1.8mm, anti-reflection film wavelength for collimator/coupler 2 Range 350-700nm), connector 3, large-numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre 4 (Nufern, UHNA3,1.8/125, by wavelength 900 ± 50nm, fibre core numerical aperture 0.35) and end caps 5 (oblique 8 ° of grinder fine grinding).
Interferometer used in testing is commercial fizeau interferometer, including spectroscope 6, collimating mirror 7, standard mirror 8 and test Mirror 9.The light beam that fiber coupled laser is launched by end caps 5 is after spectroscope 6, by collimating mirror 7 with directional light Beam outgoing, is incident upon on standard mirror 8.A part of light is reflected from 8 upper surface of standard mirror, and another part light penetrates standard mirror 8 It is reflected after being mapped to 9 upper surface of test mirrors, this two parts reflection light enters observation system 10 after spectroscope reflects, and generates dry Relate to striped 11.
Fiber coupled laser disclosed in this invention uses large-numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre 4, and conventional commercial interferometer Light source uses single mode optical fiber.
In conjunction with Fig. 3 (a), it is LP respectively that there are two types of modes to export for large-numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre 4 used in the present invention01 Mould and LP11Mould;In conjunction with Fig. 3 (b), the superimposed light beam of both modes is approximately flat top beam, in conjunction with Fig. 3 (c), big numerical aperture Diameter less fundamental mode optical fibre 4 and single mode optical fiber compare, and output intensity is more evenly distributed.Assuming that the diameter of collimating mirror 7 is D, single mode optical fiber The contrast C of output beam arrival collimating mirror 71Are as follows:
Wherein, Imax1It is the light intensity maximum value that single mode optical fiber output beam reaches collimating mirror 7, Imin1It is single mode optical fiber output The light intensity minimum value of light beam arrival collimating mirror 7.
The contrast C of 4 output beam of large-numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre arrival collimating mirror 72Are as follows:
Wherein, Imax2It is the light intensity maximum value that 4 output beam of large-numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre reaches collimating mirror 7, Imin2It is big The light intensity minimum value of 4 output beam of numerical aperture less fundamental mode optical fibre arrival collimating mirror 7.
