Background
In the field of extreme ultraviolet optics, especially when carrying out extreme ultraviolet monitoring on a space target, quantitative measurement needs to be carried out on the absolute intensity of extreme ultraviolet radiation of a target source. For this reason, it is required to design a small-sized, highly reliable euv photometer suitable for space applications. In a space environment, because the atmosphere and the ozone layer do not exist, light radiation of various wave bands from a target and particle radiation of different energies from a cosmic background can be irradiated into a measuring instrument, but an available band-pass extreme ultraviolet transmission filter with a high suppression ratio does not exist at present, the brightness of extreme ultraviolet radiation of a specific wave band cannot be accurately measured, and a large number of extreme ultraviolet targets with research values cannot be detected.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a space extreme ultraviolet photometer, which aims to solve the technical problems in the prior art. The space extreme ultraviolet photometer of the invention utilizes an extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer film reflector optical system to filter out X-ray radiation and working waveband external extreme ultraviolet radiation, utilizes a thin film absorption filter to filter out far ultraviolet, visible and infrared part radiation in a long wave direction, and realizes high response detection of specific extreme ultraviolet wavelength radiation with higher out-of-band inhibition capability.
In order to solve the technical problems, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
the invention provides a space extreme ultraviolet photometer, which comprises:
the thin film absorption filter is arranged at the light inlet and can filter and remove long-wave radiation with far ultraviolet, visible and infrared wavelength;
the optical system consists of an extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer film reflecting mirror, and can filter X-ray radiation and extreme ultraviolet radiation outside a working waveband, so that band-pass filtering of a specific extreme ultraviolet waveband is realized;
the heavy metal shielding plate at the back of the reflector prevents high-energy shielding particles from penetrating and being received by the detector;
the photodiode detector receives the radiation of the target extreme ultraviolet band filtered by the optical system;
the space extreme ultraviolet photometer formed by the components can be used for high-precision quantitative detection of space extreme ultraviolet target radiation through ground radiometric calibration.
In the technical scheme, the thin film absorption filter is obtained by plating one or more of Al, Ti and C thin films on the filter.
In the above technical solution, the optical system is composed of two EUV narrow band multilayer film mirrors.
In the technical scheme, the heavy metal shielding plate on the back of the reflector is made of high atomic number materials such as copper, lead or tungsten, and the thickness of the shielding plate is 3-5 mm.
In the technical scheme, the surface of the photodiode detector is plated with an Al, Ti or C film.
According to the space extreme ultraviolet photometer, after passing through a thin film absorption optical filter, an extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer film reflector and a heavy metal baffle plate at the back of the reflector, only extreme ultraviolet radiation in a specific wavelength range reaches a photodiode detector, photoelectric conversion is carried out to obtain photocurrent in a specific proportional relation, and a signal acquisition system acquires the signal. The radiation response of the extreme ultraviolet photometer can be calibrated by calibrating the reflectivity of the extreme ultraviolet optical system, the transmittance of the thin film absorption filter and the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the photodiode detector, so that the high-precision quantitative measurement of the absolute radiation brightness of a target can be realized on track.
The invention has the following beneficial effects:
the invention solves the technical problem that a band-pass filter with no high rejection ratio is arranged in an extreme ultraviolet band, combines an extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer film reflector system, a thin film absorption filter, a heavy metal baffle plate at the back of the reflector and a high-sensitivity photodiode detector into an extreme ultraviolet photometer, and can realize high-precision quantitative detection of space target extreme ultraviolet radiation through high-precision calibration on the ground.
The space extreme ultraviolet photometer of the invention realizes the band-pass filtering effect on a specific extreme ultraviolet band by utilizing an extreme ultraviolet multilayer film reflection optical system, and then realizes the high out-of-band rejection ratio measurement of the absolute brightness of the extreme ultraviolet radiation of the specific band by utilizing a thin film absorption filter to absorb light radiation in a long wave direction. The design is innovative, and the developed space extreme ultraviolet photometer has the characteristics of simple structure, small volume, light weight and high reliability, can detect the radiation brightness of a space target in a specific extreme ultraviolet band, and can be widely applied to on-orbit calibration of space load in the band. Therefore, the method can be widely applied to the extreme ultraviolet radiation calibration of space astronomical targets.
The space extreme ultraviolet photometer can also plate Al, Ti, C or other films on the surface of the photodiode, and further filter extreme ultraviolet, far ultraviolet, visible light and infrared radiation outside a working waveband; meanwhile, the backup function of the front-end film absorption filter of the light inlet can be achieved, and once the front-end film absorption filter leaks light, the photometer can still work normally.

Detailed Description
In order to calibrate the extreme ultraviolet radiation of a specific waveband, the invention adopts an optical system consisting of an extreme ultraviolet multilayer film reflecting mirror, a thin film absorption filter and a photodiode detector coated with a thin film to be matched for use, thereby realizing the high-precision quantitative detection of the extreme ultraviolet waveband radiation.
The specific implementation scheme of the space extreme ultraviolet photometer provided by the invention is as follows:
the invention provides a space extreme ultraviolet photometer, which comprises: the device comprises a light inlet thin film filter (a filter plated with a 150nm Al film), an optical system consisting of two EUV narrow-band multilayer film reflectors 1 and 2, a heavy metal baffle plate at the back of the reflector, and a photodiode detector plated with a thin film; the schematic optical path is shown in fig. 1.
The light inlet thin film optical filter can preliminarily filter far ultraviolet, ultraviolet and visible light signals outside a working waveband, and simultaneously plays a role in reducing the temperature of the inner part.
FIG. 2 is a graph showing transmittance of a metal thin film filter at a light inlet (150nm Al film). From the figure, it can be known that the filter is used for filtering partial X-ray radiation in the short wave direction and partial extreme ultraviolet, far ultraviolet, ultraviolet and visible infrared radiation in the long wave direction.
The optical system consists of two reflectors (an EUV narrow-band multilayer film reflector 1 and an EUV narrow-band multilayer film reflector 2) plated with extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer films, and X-ray radiation from a target or a cosmic background and extreme ultraviolet radiation of a non-working waveband are filtered;
fig. 3 is a graph of the EUV narrow band multilayer film mirror reflectance distribution (center wavelength 19.5nm), the left graph is a graph of the EUV narrow band multilayer film mirror 1 reflectance distribution, and the right graph is a graph of the EUV narrow band multilayer film mirror 2 reflectance distribution. From this figure it can be seen that the EUV narrow band multilayer mirror 1, 2 reflects only optical radiation in the operating band.
FIG. 4 is a graph of the integrated reflectivity profile of an EUV narrow band multilayer film optical system. From this figure, it can be seen that the combined reflectance of the EUV narrow-band multilayer film mirrors 1, 2 can suppress light radiation outside the operating band even better.
The heavy metal shielding plate on the back of the reflector is made of a high-density copper metal material with the thickness of about 3-5 nm, and the high-energy particles partially penetrating through the reflector are ensured to be absorbed.
The extreme ultraviolet radiation in a specific wavelength range after passing through an optical system consisting of a light inlet thin film optical filter and an extreme ultraviolet narrow-band multilayer film reflecting mirror irradiates a high-sensitivity and high-stability photodiode detector, and the detector responds and outputs an electric signal which is acquired by a subsequent acquisition system.
The surface of the photodiode detector is plated with an Al metal film, so that far ultraviolet, visible light and infrared radiation of non-target wave bands are further filtered; meanwhile, the backup function of the front thin film optical filter can be achieved, and once the light leakage of the front optical filter occurs, the photometer can still work normally.
In the above specific embodiment, the thin film absorption filter can also be obtained by coating one or more of Ti and C thin films on the filter; the heavy metal shielding plate on the back of the reflector can also be made of lead or tungsten with other thicknesses and high atomic number, and the thickness is about 3-5 mm; the surface of the photodiode detector can be plated with films such as Ti, C and the like; this is not intended to be an example.
It should be understood that the above examples are only for clarity of illustration and are not intended to limit the embodiments. Other variations and modifications will be apparent to persons skilled in the art in light of the above description. And are neither required nor exhaustive of all embodiments. And obvious variations or modifications therefrom are within the scope of the invention.
