Description

Multiband laser beam combining system and beam control method
Technical Field
The invention relates to multi-band laser beam combining, in particular to a multi-band laser beam combining system and a beam control method.
Background
With the rapid development of laser technology, lasers are increasingly used in the fields of military, medical treatment, communication and the like. In recent years, applications of high-brightness, multi-band laser systems are urgently required in many fields such as high-energy laser light sources, laser cladding, advanced manufacturing, and the like. However, the single laser is affected by heat damage, nonlinear effect, thermal lens effect, element structure, heat dissipation condition, etc., and the wavelength and power of the output laser are limited. The laser beam combining technology is one of effective methods for breaking through single-path laser output power, ensuring beam quality and realizing wide wavelength.
The laser beam combining technology is divided into two main types, namely coherent beam combining, which means that a plurality of laser beams with the same wavelength, a certain phase relation and coherence are combined into one emergent laser beam. The technology has strict requirements on the phase, the line width, the frequency and the like of the sub-beams, and the phase difference of each sub-beam is controlled to be constant, so that the technology has great difficulty, is complex in system and cannot be practically used; and the incoherent beam combination is mainly the main spectrum beam combination of the main stream, and a plurality of lasers with different wavelengths are combined into one laser output by utilizing a specific optical device. The technology has no strict requirement on parameters of the sub-beam laser, so the technology is rapidly developed.
Currently, researchers put forward a plurality of laser beam combining system design methods based on the basic principle of spectrum beam combining, one type is that no beam adjustment or monitoring measures exist, and the laser beam combining method cannot cope with beam separation caused by laser self-jitter, assembly errors, vibration, environmental temperature change and the like, so that the system beam quality and efficiency are greatly reduced, and the method is not practical. As disclosed in application publication No. CN102289078A, a first laser beam is incident on a beam combining mirror at the brewster angle, so that two laser beams are combined into one beam, and the laser beam of the laser beam is linearly polarized. The method has the problems that the random polarized laser can not be combined, because the Brewster angle has polarization requirements on the reflected light beam and the transmitted light beam, and the accurate Brewster angle can not be achieved, the reflectivity and the transmissivity of the light beam are greatly reduced, most of the energy is absorbed under the action of high energy, the beam combining lens (a film polarizer) generates high temperature rise, the synthesized light spots are seriously separated, the Brewster angle is generally the ratio of the refractive indexes of two media, the angle is large, the film plating difficulty of the lens is large, and the lens is absorbed greatly, so that the lens is not suitable for being used as the beam combining lens. The beam combining method has the advantages of less combination quantity, complex system structure, huge system and high requirement on the sub-beam laser, and the cost is increased. The method is based on controlling the synthesized light beams, monitoring the precision of the synthesized light beams, ensuring the synthesis precision of the system through adjustment, improving the quality and efficiency of the light beams, and having certain practicability. However, the precision of the direction of the combined beam cannot be controlled, the position precision of the phase combination of each sub-beam can be only realized, high requirements are put forward on a subsequent beam expansion reflection system, the selected lens is required to consider the error of random light spot irradiation to the lens caused by random light spot shaking and environmental vibration, and the emission system is required to accurately control the direction of the combined beam, so that the error of light spot shaking caused by a laser beam combination system is compensated, and the subsequent control system is more complex. For example, the paper of the new method for monitoring and adjusting the beam of the high-energy laser emission system and the research of the method for directly monitoring and correcting the emission direction of the multiband laser are all to utilize the light spot of the direct or indirect monitoring composite beam to cooperate with the active control to adjust the precision of the composite beam. The above method has the problems that when multiple beams which are overlapped enter simultaneously, light spots are overlapped together, the wavelength of each sub-beam is difficult to determine, and the angle or position value of each sub-beam cannot be calculated through an algorithm. In order to distinguish the synthesized light spot sub-beams, an electric switching optical gate or a target wheel optical filter needs to be added, so that all the wavelengths to be monitored are forced to enter the detector successively and are distinguished, but the monitoring precision is reduced, and the complexity and the stability of the system are increased. Application publication number CN114006269a discloses a high power semiconductor laser direct output system and its polarization beam combining structure, but the number of beams that can be combined in this prior art is limited.
In summary, how to combine multiple lasers and determine the angle value of each sub-beam is a technical problem to be solved.
