Laser cleaning device based on light field regulation and control technology
Technical Field
The invention relates to a laser cleaning device, in particular to a laser cleaning device based on a light field regulation and control technology.
Background
The principle of the laser cleaning device is to focus laser on the surface of a material to realize the stripping of rust layers, oil stains and the like. However, the output light beam of the laser is mostly gaussian light beam, and the central light intensity of the gaussian light beam is greater than the edge light intensity, so that the edge light intensity is difficult to reach the laser cleaning threshold value in the laser cleaning process, and the heat effect is generated, thereby increasing the roughness of the laser cleaning surface. Although some manufacturers shape the round Gaussian beam through the beam, the round flat-top beam or the rectangular light spot is obtained through beam shaping, so that the thermal influence of laser cleaning is reduced, and the scanning speed of the laser cleaning is increased. However, the flat-top light beam or the rectangular light spot obtained by shaping the diffractive optical element has very sensitive spatial distribution of the light field intensity of the focusing field, is easy to generate larger distortion in front of and behind the focal plane, and is not beneficial to realizing the long-focus-depth focusing field.

Wherein, the axicon 31 is adopted to integrate the Gaussian beam 2 into a Bessel beam 41; the quarter-wave plate 32 is adopted to convert the linear polarization Gaussian beam into a circular polarization Gaussian beam, and the circularly polarized light 42 is shaped into a vortex beam 61 after passing through the variable vortex wave plate 5; and a half wave plate 33 is adopted to adjust the polarization direction of the Gaussian beam 2 and the direction angle of the surface fast axis distribution of the variable vortex wave plate 5 to obtain radial and angular polarization beams.
