Description

High-flux 3D dark spot generating device
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of optical engineering, and particularly relates to a high-flux 3D dark spot generation device.
Background
Micro-nano manufacturing technology is receiving wide attention as a core technology for micro-nano device preparation and a support technology of modern information industry. The electron beam exposure and focused ion beam etching technology which is widely applied at present has low efficiency and is only suitable for small-area preparation and phenomenon level research. The high-resolution lithography technology applied to large-scale production lines cannot meet the requirements of scientific research and product proofing. With the development of the technology, the demand of people changes from two dimensions to any three-dimensional structure, which cannot be realized by the above technology. Laser direct writing benefits from nonlinear optical effects, has the advantages of no mask and no vacuum, and has been widely used as a three-dimensional nano-fabrication means. But is limited by the diffraction limit and its resolution cannot break through half a wavelength. The adoption of the deep ultraviolet light source can greatly improve the resolution, but the technical difficulty in the design, manufacture and integration of an optical system is increased sharply, and the real application is difficult to realize.
The double-beam laser direct writing technology is a novel three-dimensional nanometer processing technology based on the laser direct writing technology, and on the basis of the traditional laser printing technology, a beam of hollow loss light beam (dark spot) is added and superposed on a direct writing light beam limited by a diffraction limit, so that a direct writing light beam is inhibited from causing a material photopolymerization area, and the direct writing resolution is improved to 50nm or even higher. However, the current technology is limited by single-path optical direct writing, has a slow processing speed, and cannot realize industrialized large-scale application. The parallel processing of multiple direct-writing light beams is the most direct and effective method for improving the processing speed, and therefore a high-flux dark spot array is needed to be matched with the multiple direct-writing light beams to realize rapid laser direct writing. Meanwhile, the method can also be applied to the stimulated depletion super-resolution imaging technology and is used for realizing parallel rapid super-resolution imaging.

Detailed Description
The device for generating the high-flux 3D dark spots comprises a transverse high-flux dark spot generating device and a longitudinal high-flux dark spot generating device, wherein the transverse high-flux dark spot generating device and the longitudinal high-flux dark spot generating device are transparent substrates with light shielding layers and anti-reflection films respectively plated on the surfaces of two sides; the transparent substrate is glass or plastic; the antireflection film is used for ensuring the transmittance of the device; in particular, if the transmittance requirement is not high, the antireflection film may be omitted. The two devices adopt a high-precision etching technology to etch the shading layer on the surface of the transparent substrate, the etching positions form an array, and the etching positions of the two devices are the same.
As shown in fig. 1, according to the selected laser wavelength, a 0-2 pi vortex phase plate is engraved on the transparent substrate of the transverse high-flux dark spot generating device, and the engraving position is the same as the etching position of the light shielding layer, so that a 0-2 pi vortex phase array is obtained. When the light beam array passes through the transverse high-flux dark spot generation device, each light beam is modulated by the 0-2 pi vortex phase plate, and a transverse hollow dark spot shown in figure 2 is generated after focusing. This example produces a 10 x 10 array of transverse dark spots comprising 10 x 10 0-2 pi vortex phase plates on the transverse high-throughput dark spot generating device, but the number and arrangement is not limited thereto.

When the light beam array passes through the longitudinal high-flux dark spot generating device, each light beam is modulated by the 0-pi phase plate, and a longitudinal hollow dark spot shown in figure 4 is generated after focusing. This example produces a 10 x 10 array of transverse dark spots, with 10 x 10 0-pi phase plates on the longitudinal high-throughput dark spot producing device, but the number and arrangement is not limited to this.
The arrangement of the two arrays determines the arrangement of the final dark spot array; the center of each phase mask in the two arrays is coaxial with the center of the light beam incident on the phase mask, and the phase delay is matched with the wavelength of the incident light.

The incident light is a square beam array, such as a square or rectangular array; the high-flux 3D dark spot focused on the sample by the beam array can be used for realizing double-beam laser direct writing processing or realizing super-resolution imaging; in order to make the light intensity distribution of the light spot projected on the sample more uniform, both the light beam passing through the device and the light beam before focusing should be converted into circularly polarized light.
Specifically, the linearly polarized parallel light beam array is divided into two paths by a beam splitter prism 1, and one path of the linearly polarized parallel light beam array is modulated into circularly polarized light after passing through a first half wave plate 1 and a first quarter wave plate 3; then passing through a transverse high-flux dark spot generating device 4, wherein the 0-2 pi vortex phase mask distribution in the device corresponds to the light beams in the laser beam array one by one, and each light beam in the laser beam array is modulated by the 0-2 pi vortex phase; the modulated light beam array is reflected to a beam combining prism 10 through a first reflector 5; the other path of light split by the beam splitting prism 1 is reflected by the second reflecting mirror 6 and is modulated into circularly polarized light through the second half wave plate 7 and the second quarter wave plate 8 in sequence; then, a longitudinal high-flux dark spot generating device 9 is used, the 0-pi phase mask distribution in the device corresponds to the light beams in the laser beam array one by one, and each light beam in the laser beam array is modulated by the 0-pi phase; the modulated light is incident on the beam combining prism 10 and is combined with the reflected light on the first reflector 5; the combined light passes through the micro lens array 11, forms a high-flux 3D dark spot array at the focal plane of the micro lens array 11, and is imaged at the focal plane of the second lens 13 by a 4f system consisting of the first lens 12 and the second lens 13. Taking a 10 × 10 beam as an example, the generated high-throughput 3D dark spot array is shown in fig. 6.
