The present invention is described in detail with specific embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification.
As shown in Figure 1, 2, on lens group axis provided by the invention mirror surface spacing low-coherent light interferometric measuring means, packet It includes:
Low-coherent light light source 1, for generating low-coherent light.
Microcobjective 2, for low-coherent light to be focused into point light source.
Aperture 3, for filtering out the stray light on point light source periphery.
Achromatism collimator objective 4, for the point light source of the Low coherence at aperture 3 to be converted into the directional light of Low coherence Beam.
Beam splitting block prism 5, for the collimated light beam of the Low coherence issued through achromatism collimator objective 4 to be separated into first Low-coherent light and the second low-coherent light;Meanwhile to along the first low-coherent light of backtracking and the second low-coherent light carry out transmission or Reflection.
Axicon group 7 and plane mirror 9 are used to respectively reflect the first low-coherent light and the second low-coherent light and each From along backtracking, to beam splitting block prism 5, then respectively, congregation is overlapped after beam splitting block prism 5 transmits and reflects;The first, The place optical path of two low-coherent lights is referred to as optical system for testing and reference path.
Optical parallel plate 6, two surface is strictly parallel, is arranged on optical system for testing, interferes for two-way low-coherent light When, balance prism wedge group 8 is poor to the dispersion of low-coherent light and the excessive path of compensation 8 original state of prism wedge group, institute With the optical glass production identical with the use material of prism wedge group 8 of optical parallel plate 6.
Prism wedge group 8 is arranged in reference path, by the first prism wedge 31 (prism wedge group 8 in Fig. 1, Fig. 2 Left side prism) and the second prism wedge 32 (Fig. 1, in 2 prism wedge group 8 right side prism) composition.First prism wedge, 31 He Second prism wedge 32 can be wedge-shaped right-angle prism in figure, can also be general prism wedge, they are same It is placed on horizontal plane with complimentary positions, inclined-plane is opposite where two bevel edges and has slight gap in parallel.Using general wedge shape When prism, a respective proximal surface for two angles of wedge is opposite and has slight gap in parallel.First prism wedge 31 is fixed, the second wedge shape Prism 32 can be displaced along the movement of inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction and the measurement of the measuring scale by linking of itself, and the second prism wedge 32 is known as Movable measurement prism wedge.The faceted pebble and beam splitting block prism 5 in the left side of the first prism wedge 31 are opposite, low as second The plane of incidence of coherent light, the right side faceted pebble and plane mirror 9 of the second prism wedge 32 are opposite, as going out for the second low-coherent light Penetrate face.
Image-forming objective lens 10 and CCD camera 11, for receiving the first low-coherent light and the second low-coherent light after merging overlapping, And aplanatism interference fringe is generated on the receiving plane of CCD camera 11.
For low-coherent light, there is the original of dispersion since its spectral region is wider and glass optical component is to low-coherent light Cause could generate stable interference fringe only under the conditions of two optical paths are aplanatic with respect to the light of low-coherent light central wavelength, So need to guarantee the two-way light aplanatism of optical system for testing and reference path before measuring, and whether it is observed that interference fringe, Exactly judge the aplanatic foundation of two-way light.
Therefore before measuring, the position of appropriate adjustment axicon group 7 and plane mirror 9, before making axicon group 7 Surface and plane mirror 9 are respectively to the light after the first low-coherent light and the reflection of the second low-coherent light, by beam splitting block prism 5 Transmission and reflection be able to observe that the aplanatism of low-coherent light is dry on the receiving plane of CCD camera 11 by image-forming objective lens 10 Striped is related to, optical system for testing and reference path two-way light beam are aplanatic at this time.It should be noted that due to being tested axicon Each mirror surface of group 7 only has the center face element on axis that can regard plane as, and the center face element neighboring area on axis is to be pivoted Symmetrical spherical surface, so the light beam reflected in the light beam of a certain mirror-reflection of axicon group 7 and reference path is in CCD camera 11 formed interference fringes, centered on be thicker round spot, periphery is circular ring shape striped that is gradually close tapered and disappearing soon.
Specifically, when testing, the first low-coherent light (top is all the way) first passes perpendicularly through optical parallel plate 6, Inject measured lens interplanar distance axicon group 7, and by a certain mirror-reflection of axicon group 7 after, along backtracking to divide Beam block prism 5, then by beam splitting block prism 5 transmit after, imaged object lens 10 enter CCD camera 11.
Second low-coherent light (right side is all the way), by the left end face (left side of the first prism wedge 31 of prism wedge group 8 Faceted pebble) vertical incidence, after prism wedge group right end face (the right side faceted pebble of the second prism wedge 32) outgoing, then it is anti-through plane It penetrates after mirror 9 reflects, along backtracking to beam splitting block prism 5, then is reflected by beam splitting block prism 5, the imaged entrance of object lens 10 CCD camera 11.
At this point, the optical texture of prism wedge group 8 can regard an equivalent optical parallel plate as, when the second prism wedge 32 it is mobile along inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction of itself when, will lead to continuously changing for the equivalent thickness of this equivalent optical parallel plate Become, and also changes immediately perpendicular to the light path of end face (the left side faceted pebble of the first prism wedge 31) incident parallel light, but emergent light Direction it is constant, sidesway will not also occur for directional light.
So the effective thickness of appropriate adjustment prism wedge group 8, above-mentioned the first, second Low coherence into CCD camera 11 Light will be overlapped on the receiving plane of CCD camera 11, generate the aplanatism interference fringe of low-coherent light;Determine the second wedge shape at this time Behind 32 position of prism, continue along mobile second prism 32 in itself inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction, so that each mirror of tested axicon group 7 The reflected light in face, successively with through the light reflected by plane mirror 9 after prism wedge group 8 on the receiving plane of CCD camera 11 Produce aplanatism interference fringe.When according to produced aplanatism interference fringe, the second prism 32 is in the position on inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction It moves, the spacing of each adjacent mirror facets on the central axis of tested axicon group 7 is calculated.
In the present invention, it uses general low Accuracy Displacement motivation structure for mobile platform, drives the in prism wedge group 8 Two prism wedges 32 are realized along inclined-plane (bevel edge) the direction movement of itself with the low Accuracy Displacement acquisition close to optical axis vertical direction Along the high precision displacement of optical axis direction, reach the light path fine adjustment and measurement of optical axis direction.
As shown in Fig. 2, the measurement detailed process of axicon group mirror surface spacing is as follows:
Itself inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction of the second prism wedge 32 in figure in measurement process, in prism wedge group 8 It is mobile.Vertical dotted line indicates the new position of its right side faceted pebble after the second prism wedge 32 is mobile, corresponding with lateral dotted line, expression the In two prisms, 32 moving process, the reflected light of the continuous each mirror surface of the tested axicon group 7 sequentially found is anti-with plane respectively The reflected light for penetrating mirror 9 generates the position of aplanatism interference fringe.
Step 1: as shown in Figure 1, arranging low-coherence light source 1, microcobjective 2, aperture 3, achromatism collimator objective 4, beam splitting block prism 5, tested axicon group 7, plane mirror 9, image-forming objective lens 10 and CCD camera 11.Adjust colour killing Poor collimator objective 4 is emitted directional light.Directional light vertical incidence beam splitting block prism 5 isolates the first low-coherent light and second low Coherent light, and directive axicon group 7 and plane mirror 9 respectively, successively adjust axicon group 7 and plane mirror 9 is each From position and inclination angle, until observing the reflected light of tested 7 front surface of axicon group and flat on 11 receiving plane of CCD camera The aplanatism interference fringe of the low-coherent light of the reflected light of face reflecting mirror 9.This striped is to be typically round striped, because coaxial The front surface of microscope group 7 is usually spherical surface, is linear striped if 7 front surface of axicon group is plane.The step is suitable It is calibrated in device, because the spectral region of low-coherent light is wider, only in the stringent aplanatic item of two-way low-coherent light Under part, stable interference fringe could be generated.Therefore, if observe interference fringe, exactly judge whether two-way light is stringent etc. The foundation of light path.
Step 2: in the optical system for testing where tested axicon group 7, the optical parallel plate 6 of merging compensation light path, And optical parallel plate 6 is adjusted, make the first low-coherent light perpendicular through optical parallel plate 6, by each mirror-reflection of axicon group 7 Afterwards, axis glazed thread is along backtracking;In 9 place reference path of plane mirror, it is placed in prism wedge group 8.Prism wedge group 8 It, and will not at a distance from optics parallel-plate 6 to beam splitting block prism 5 on optical system for testing to the distance of beam splitting block prism 5 Together, the reflected light to avoid their surface is overlapped in CCD camera 11 generates contingency low-coherent light interference fringe.Adjust wedge Shape prism group 8 makes the second low-coherent light incident perpendicular to the left side faceted pebble of the first prism wedge 31 of prism wedge group 8, and After prism wedge group 8 perpendicular to the second prism wedge 32 right side faceted pebble be emitted, then by plane mirror 9 reflect after along original Road returns;Along mobile second prism wedge in inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction of the second prism wedge 32 itself of prism wedge group 8, until The anti-of the reflected light of tested 7 front surface of axicon group and plane mirror 9 is observed on the receiving plane of CCD camera 11 again Penetrate the low-coherent light aplanatism interference fringe of light.The second prism wedge 32 of prism wedge group 8 at this time is write down along its bevel direction On position readings x1
Step 3: continuing inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction mobile second of the second prism wedge 32 itself along prism wedge group 8 Prism wedge, successively observes second mirror surface of tested axicon group 7 on 11 receiving plane of CCD camera, third mirror surface, 4th mirror surface ..., the reflected light of i-th of mirror surface, the aplanatism interference fringe with the reflected light of plane mirror 9, and respectively Write down position readings x of the second prism wedge 32 of prism wedge group 8 at this time on its inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction2, x3, x4..., xi
According to the principle of interference of low-coherent light it is found that during measuring the mirror surface spacing of axicon group 7, adjacent two mirror The reflected light in face successively with the reflection through prism wedge group 8 (adjust prism wedge group 8 during) by plane mirror 9 Light interferes, optical parallel plate of the prism wedge group 8 as equivalent variable thickness, increases thickness and the increment of light path is caused to be equal to The optical path difference of reflected light of adjacent two mirror surface on axis inside axicon group, be also equal to light on axis by this adjacent two Twice of the light path in face.
If Refractive Index of Material is n between certain adjacent mirror facets inside axicon group 7i, on this adjacent two mirror surfaces central axis Spacing is ti, the refractive index of air is n0, the refractive index of the glass material of prism wedge group 8 is np, the angle of wedge of prism wedge group 8 For α, for the second prism wedge 32 of prism wedge group along inclined-plane (bevel edge) direction moving process of itself, adjacent generation twice is dry The position readings for relating to striped are respectively xi, xi+1, according to aplanatic interference condition, have:
2niti=2 (np-n0)(xi+1-xi)sinα
Acquire the spacing t between this adjacent two mirror surface on central axisiAre as follows:
Its measurement error Δ tiAre as follows:
The Δ x in above formulai、Δxi+1Be prism wedge group 8 the second prism wedge 32 inside prism wedge group vis-a-vis Parallel faceted pebble in and vertical rib direction it is mobile when errors in position measurement.
Measurement accuracy of the invention is analyzed below.
As shown in figure 3, the second prism wedge 32 namely right angled triangle Δ ABC, move a distance along the direction bevel edge AB Afterwards, the new position of the dotted line right angled triangle Δ A'B'C' in Fig. 3 is reached.It can be seen that, after being moved to new position, where the angle of wedge Vertex A is moved to A', and the thickness increment of equivalent parallel plate isIn right angled triangle Δ A'AN, apex angle is locking angle, can ?WithIndicate the distance that the right three shape Δ ABC of right angle is moved along the direction bevel edge AB, The thickness increment for indicating equivalent optical parallel-plate, then have t=xsin α.
Due to the locking angle very little of prism, for sake of convenience, t is called longitudinal thickness increment here, x is call approximate Lateral displacement.From formula t=xsin α it is found that 90 ° of α <, then sin α < 1, so there is t < x.The big approximately transversely position of this explanation Generate small longitudinal thickness increment t with moving x linear scale, once it follows that the locking angle of prism wedge group has determined, big The measurement error Δ t that approximately transversely displacement measurement errors Δ x passes to longitudinal optical parallel plate thickness increment is linearly to subtract It is small, therefore improve the measurement accuracy of longitudinal optical parallel plate thickness increment.
For mirror surface spacing on measurement lens group axis, measurement error also corresponding linear reduction.For example, general glass The refractive index of material is between 1.4~1.7, in error calculation formula described above, the fractional factorial containing refractive index Ratio is about 0.3, so the factor for influencing error is 0.3 × sin α.Due to 90 ° of the locking angle < < of prism wedge group, then sin α < < 1, so once it is determined that, mirror surface distance measurement error is also accordingly linear on the axis of axicon group reduces as α.
It can also be seen that the value of the locking angle in prism wedge group is smaller, measurement accuracy is higher.From the general of optics light path For thought, the fine adjustment and measurement of light path are realized.Since the locking angle of prism wedge group can redesign change, so The prism group of corresponding locking angle can be designed according to the needs of measurement accuracy, the measurement accuracy control for meeting needs requires.It is theoretical Upper theory, measurement accuracy can be improved arbitrarily, but be limited by the measurement accuracy of locking angle, and measurement accuracy can not be mentioned unlimitedly It is high.
Measurement accuracy of the invention is illustrated by comparative experiments calculating below.
Experimental group: mirror surface distance measurement on lens group axis is carried out using low-coherent light interferometric method of the invention.It is false The precision for determining the traverse measurement ruler of prism wedge is ± 1 μm, then Δ xiWith Δ xi+1The sum of error be ± 2 μm.With the low phase of LED Dry light is as light source, central wavelength lambda=680nm.Glass material K9 and QK2 be respectively to the refractive index of feux rouges 656.27nm 1.51390 with 1.47590.Feux rouges 680nm and feux rouges 656.27nm wavelength are not much different, and can be approximately considered above-mentioned glass material Refractive index is also the refractive index to feux rouges 680nm;The refractive index of air is about 1.00029.As shown in Table 1 is experimental group measurement Precision analysis tables of data, wherein the material of prism wedge group is K9, is tested material between certain two adjacent mirror surface of axicon group Material is respectively K9 and QK2, there is the measurement accuracy calculated result of the mirror surface spacing in the prism wedge group of the different angles of wedge in table.
Table 1: experimental group measurement precision analysis tables of data.
From table 1 it follows that the prism angle of wedge is got over when distance measurement precision is higher on the axis for requiring axicon group It is small;The angle of wedge design for changing prism wedge, can make the measurement accuracy of mirror surface spacing on the axis of axicon group meet setting accuracy Control range in, such as within 18nm, when prism wedge group and tested axicon group material are all K9,1 ° of 30' of α <.
Contrast groups: lens group is carried out using the low-coherent light interferometric method in Chinese invention patent CN108759698A Mirror surface distance measurement on axis.The precision of the traverse measurement ruler of the prism wedge of contrast groups, Δ xiWith Δ xi+1The sum of error and reality Test group it is identical, the prism angle of wedge and experimental group of prism wedge group are also approximately uniform;Simultaneously also using LED low-coherent light as light Source, wherein the material of heart wavelength X=680nm, the prism wedge group of two contrast groups is all K9, is tested axicon group certain Material is respectively K9 and QK2 between two adjacent mirror surfaces, identical as experimental group;The refractive index of air is about 1.00029;.Such as table 2 Shown in contrast groups measurement precision analysis tables of data.
Table 2: contrast groups measurement precision analysis tables of data.
It is compared by Tables 1 and 2 it is found that use is identical in the case where the prism angle of wedge of prism wedge group is approximately uniform Prism wedge group same measured lens group is measured, the ratio of precision contrast groups of experimental group are high, experimental group measurement Precision is about the one third of contrast groups, such as when the contrast groups prism angle of wedge is 1 ° of 26', measurement accuracy 50nm, and experimental group When the prism angle of wedge is 1 ° of 30', measurement accuracy is then 18nm, significantly larger than contrast groups.
