3.2 A pulse signal is applied again to drive the stepping motor, the delay distance of the linear delay line 4 is changed, the position C with the terahertz signal phase difference of zero in the oscilloscope 12 moves backwards, finally coincides with the end B of the optical step as shown in fig. 6, and the position indication d of the linear delay line 4 at the moment is obtained by recording the number m of pulse signals received by the encoder in the moving process of the linear delay line 2
d 2 =d 1 +m·Δl (2)
Where Δl is the minimum step distance of the stepper motor.
Further, the step four is repeated three times, the average indication difference of the positions of the two ends of the optical step corresponding to the linear delay line 4 is calculated, and the actual delay time of the working period of the rotary optical delay line 6 to be calibrated is obtained specifically includes:

4.2 Using the relationship between the delay distance and the delay time of the linear delay line 4 to obtain the actual delay time deltat of the rotating optical delay line 6 to be calibrated:
Figure BDA0004005430690000092
where c is the speed at which light propagates in vacuo, n 0 Is the refractive index of air.
Further, the fifth step of repeating the second to fourth steps based on the working cycle of the to-be-calibrated rotating optical delay line 6 rotating one circle, to achieve delay calibration of all working cycles of the to-be-calibrated rotating optical delay line 6 rotating one circle specifically includes:
5.1 As can be seen from fig. 1, the working period of the to-be-calibrated rotary optical delay line 6 is determined by the number of plane mirrors in the delay line, and there are 6 working periods when the to-be-calibrated rotary optical delay line 6 rotates for one circle, so that the rest 5 working periods of the to-be-calibrated rotary optical delay line are sequentially shielded, and it is ensured that only one working period of the to-be-calibrated rotary optical delay line 6 is used for light transmission during each calibration;
