In order to make the implementation objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions implemented by the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
Example one
The embodiment discloses a laser beam astigmatism compensation method, which comprises the following steps:
an astigmatism compensation device is added in an external light path of the laser processing system, and laser beams generate astigmatism after passing through the astigmatism compensation device;
the rotating angle of the optical element in the astigmatism compensating device is adjusted, the size and the direction of the astigmatism generated by the astigmatism compensating device are changed, the astigmatism generated by the astigmatism compensating device is equal to the astigmatism of the original laser processing system in size and opposite in direction, and the astigmatism of the whole laser processing system is reversely compensated.
The rotation angle of the optical element can be adjusted manually or automatically. In the actual debugging process, a beam quality analyzer is required to be added under a field lens, and then a computer is adopted to measure and adjust the astigmatism data of the optical path.
Further, the beam quality analyzer is used for observing the ovality of the final light spot in the defocusing state to adjust the astigmatism compensation device, when the light spot in the defocusing state is a circular light spot to the maximum extent, the rotating angle of the corresponding astigmatism compensation device is the required angle, and the compensation amount of the astigmatism compensation device is the astigmatism compensation value.
Further, an optical element in the astigmatism compensation device is driven to rotate by a stepping motor with position feedback, the light beam quality analyzer automatically measures the ellipticity of the light spot, the ellipticity data is recorded and judged by a computer, if the ellipticity data does not reach a preset ellipticity value, a rotation adjusting signal is sent to the stepping motor, the light beam quality analyzer measures and records the ellipticity data of the light spot again after the stepping motor rotates, the ellipticity data is judged again, a closed loop is formed until the light spot conforming to the preset ellipticity is finally obtained, and the rotating angle of the stepping motor is the optimal adjusting quantity of the astigmatism compensation element at the moment.
The astigmatism compensation device is an independent mechanical optical device, can be arranged at different positions and in different installation modes for different optical systems and different accumulated astigmatism sizes, flexibly adjusts compensation amount according to needs, and has wider applicability.
The present invention proposes various astigmatism compensation devices, as shown in fig. 5, the first one uses flat glass for compensation; the second uses an optical wedge for compensation; the third uses two identical wedges for compensation; the astigmatism compensation method or device is mainly characterized in that astigmatism is generated by parallel beams or convergent beams after the parallel beams or the convergent beams pass through the astigmatism compensation device, the size of the generated astigmatism can be changed by adjusting some devices in the astigmatism compensation device, so that uncertain astigmatism in an external optical path or a main optical path of laser can be compensated, the direction of the device is rotated by 90 degrees, and opposite astigmatism equivalent to the original direction astigmatism can be generated.
Further, the astigmatism compensation device comprises a flat glass; as shown in fig. 4, when the tilted flat glass is added to the optical path, the focal planes of the meridian plane and the sagittal plane are not at the same position, so as to generate an astigmatism Xts1, wherein the magnitude of the astigmatism Xts1 is related to the thickness T of the glass, the incident angle θ of the principal ray and the refractive index n of the glass;
the astigmatism value generated by the flat glass is Xts1, Xts1 is approximately equal to T, sin theta, sin (theta-Asin (sin theta)/n)/cos (Asin (sin theta)/n) is approximately equal to T/3, sin theta, and when theta is equal to 0, Xts1 is equal to 0; asin refers to an arcsine, arcsin.
Therefore, the flat glass can compensate the astigmatism of the laser light paths from Xts1 to Xts 1.
Further, the astigmatism compensation means comprises a monolithic optical wedge; the astigmatism generated by the monolithic wedge is Xts2,
Xts2≈f*(tan2α+k*sinθ)+T/3*sinθ;
wherein α is an optical wedge angle, f is a focal length of a focusing lens in a laser processing system (or focusing system), T is a thickness of the optical wedge (i.e., a thickness of the optical wedge at a chief ray incident point, in this embodiment, a thickness of a central point of the optical wedge), θ is a chief ray incident angle, k is a theoretical correction coefficient, and a value range is between 0 and 1.
The astigmatism correctable by a single wedge is in the range of-Xts 2-Xts 2, i.e. -fttan2α~f*tan2Alpha is between.
Furthermore, the astigmatism compensation device adopts two optical wedges, the rotation angles of the two optical wedges are adjusted, and the size and the direction of astigmatism generated by the combination of the two optical wedges are changed;
the method comprises the following steps of adjusting the rotating angles of two optical wedges, and changing the size and the direction of astigmatism generated by the combination of the two optical wedges, wherein the method specifically comprises the following steps: when the first optical wedge is not moved, the angle of the second optical wedge is rotated to adjust the size of astigmatism generated by the combination of the two optical wedges, when the second optical wedge rotates to form an angle of 180 degrees with the first optical wedge, the astigmatism generated by the combination of the two optical wedges is 0, and the astigmatism compensation device does not have astigmatism.
The combination of two wedges produced an astigmatism value of Xts3, with Xts3 having a maximum value of 2 xf tan2α, where α is the wedge angle, f is the focal length of the focusing lens in the laser processing system, the astigmatism generated by the combination of the wedges is between 0 and Xts3, and the correctable astigmatism ranges from-Xts 3 to Xts3, i.e., -2f tan2α~2f*tan2α。
The three astigmatism compensation technical schemes all have astigmatism, and the astigmatism can be adjusted, for example, the astigmatism of the flat glass is adjusted according to the incident angle theta, or the astigmatism direction can be adjusted by rotating the flat glass for 90 degrees; the single optical wedge can be replaced by different wedge angles, or the incidence angle can be adjusted, the astigmatism can be adjusted, or the single optical wedge can be installed by rotating 90 degrees, and the direction of the astigmatism can also be adjusted; the optical wedge combination can be changed into different optical wedge angles, or the first optical wedge is fixed and the second optical wedge is rotated, so that the size of astigmatism can be adjusted, or the first optical wedge is installed by rotating 90 degrees and the direction of astigmatism can also be adjusted.
After the parallel beams or the convergent beams pass through the astigmatism compensation device, astigmatism is generated, the size of the generated astigmatism can be changed by adjusting some devices in the astigmatism compensation device, so that the uncertain astigmatism in an external optical path or a main optical path of the laser can be compensated, the device is rotated by 90 degrees, opposite astigmatism equivalent to the astigmatism in the original direction can be generated, and the astigmatism compensation in the optical path of the laser can be completed.
The astigmatism compensation device can be arranged at any position in the outer optical path of the laser processing system, and the astigmatism of any optical element is compensated. The way in which the compensation amount is adjusted in the astigmatism compensation unit is very many and in principle the same. The astigmatism compensation device provided by the invention uses the rotating device to adjust the compensation amount, and the astigmatism is compensated by adjusting the rotating angle of the optical element in the astigmatism compensation device. The size of the astigmatism compensation amount is determined by the size of the rotation angle of the optical element in the astigmatism compensation device, the size of the rotation angle of the optical element in the astigmatism compensation device can be adjusted by observing the final ellipticity of the light spot in the defocused state through a beam quality analyzer, when the light spot in the defocused state is a circular light spot to the maximum extent, the corresponding rotation angle of the astigmatism compensation device is the required angle, at the moment, the compensation amount of the astigmatism compensation device is the astigmatism compensation value, and astigmatism in an optical system can be reduced to the maximum extent.
For a laser processing system, accumulated astigmatism of the whole outer light path is eliminated, and the best choice is to insert an astigmatism compensation device after a focusing field lens, so that a laser beam enters from one surface of the astigmatism compensation device after passing through the field lens and then exits from the other surface, and the astigmatism compensation process is completed. For a certain laser processing system, the astigmatism of the whole optical system is also determined, so that for the astigmatism compensation device which uses the rotating device to adjust the compensation amount, a certain rotating angle exists, the astigmatism of the laser beam emitted from the field lens can be compensated to the maximum extent after the laser beam enters the astigmatism compensation device with the certain rotating angle, the astigmatism of the laser beam reaching the processing table surface is reduced, the roundness of a defocused light spot is increased, and the processing quality is improved.
For the effect of the astigmatism compensation method, the applicant uses optical simulation software to simulate, and the simulation result shows that the astigmatism compensation device can well compensate astigmatism after being inserted into the astigmatism compensation device, so that the roundness of defocused light spots is improved. Fig. 2 shows the results of the focus and defocus spots without the addition of the astigmatism compensation means, and fig. 3 shows the results of the focus and defocus spots with the addition of the astigmatism compensation means.
The astigmatism compensation method of the invention can be widely applied to laser processing light paths, and as shown in fig. 6 and 7, two typical application cases can be that an astigmatism compensation device is added to a parallel light path before focusing, and an astigmatism compensation device is added after focusing.
