Description

Michelson interference frequency discrimination device and method for ultra-wide band and ultra-large view field
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of laser radars, and particularly relates to a Michelson interference frequency discrimination device and method for ultra-wide band and ultra-large field of view.
Background
The high-spectral-resolution laser radar (HSRL) is a laser radar technology which is newly developed in recent years, and by introducing a narrow-band spectral discriminator, the Rayleigh scattering of atmospheric molecules or the Brillouin scattering of water body are separated, so that the detection precision of the optical characteristics of the atmosphere and the water body is greatly improved. Common spectral discriminators include atomic or molecular vapor absorption cells, F-P interferometers, michelson interferometers, mach zehnder interferometers, and the like. The iodine molecule vapor absorption tank has excellent frequency discrimination effect near the characteristic spectral line 532 nm, but cannot be used at other wavelengths; the F-P interferometer can be suitable for any wavelength, but the effective field of view is small (half field of view is about 0.2 degrees), the energy utilization rate is low, an alignment error can be introduced, and the actual frequency discrimination effect can not meet the requirement of HSRL high-precision detection yet.
In order to solve the problem of high-precision spectrum frequency discrimination of non-532 nm wave bands and promote the development of ultraviolet, blue-violet, infrared and other wave band HSRL systems, relevant scholars propose a Michelson interferometer (CN 201410025286.9) and a Mach-Zehnder interferometer (CN 202211713674.7) with field broadening. The two interferometers expand the effective half field angle of the interference discriminator to 3-5 degrees by matching the optical paths in the air and the glass of the two interference arms, so that the inherent problem of smaller field of view of the F-P interferometer is solved to a certain extent, and the interferometer has been used in HSRL systems for atmospheric aerosol detection.
However, for application scenes such as water optical characteristic detection, echo signals received by a HSRL system have larger scattering angles, the half field of view of 3-5 degrees still cannot completely meet the requirements, and frequency discrimination devices with larger field of view still need to be developed. Meanwhile, most of the existing field broadening designs are sensitive to wavelength and can only be used under single wavelength, which means that HSRL systems are required to be equipped with a single longitudinal mode continuous laser with the same wavelength besides the single longitudinal mode pulse laser, so that the frequency discriminator is assembled and tested, and the research and development cost is increased. In addition, for a multi-wavelength HSRL system, the interference discriminator of different wave bands needs to be designed and manufactured separately, which further increases the complexity and manufacturing cost of the system, and hinders the development of the multi-wavelength HSRL system to some extent.

Detailed Description
The invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawings and examples, it being noted that the examples described below are intended to facilitate the understanding of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention in any way.
As shown in FIG. 1, the Michelson interference frequency discrimination device with the ultra-wide band and the ultra-large view field comprises a Michelson interferometer with the ultra-wide band and the ultra-large view field, a sealing cavity and an air pressure tuning mechanism.
The Michelson interferometer with ultra-wide band and ultra-large view field consists of a glass arm compensation reflector 1, a mixed arm gap block 2, a mixed arm compensation reflector 3 and a beam splitting prism 4. The interferometer is enclosed in a sealed cavity 5, isolated from the external atmosphere. Wherein the sealed cavity 5 has a window sheet coated with an antireflection film at both the entrance port and the exit port of the interferometer (corresponding to both sides of the dichroic prism 4, respectively) for the light beam to pass through. The air pressure tuning mechanism 6 is communicated with the sealing cavity 5, and when the air pressure tuning mechanism 6 operates, the absolute air pressure in the sealing cavity 5 can continuously change within the range of 1+/-delta P/2 atm, so that the refractive index of air in the sealing cavity 5 changes, and the interference optical path difference and the center frequency of the whole device are changed.
Further, the optical structure of the michelson interferometer with ultra wide band and ultra large field of view is shown in fig. 2 and 3. The glass arm compensation reflector 1 is made of optical glass G 1, has the thickness d 1 and is coated with a high-reflection film on the outer surface S101; the material of the mixing arm gap block 2 is quartz, and the thickness is d 2; the material of the hybrid arm compensation reflector 3 is optical glass G 3, the thickness is d 3, the outer surface S301 is plated with a high-reflection film, and the inner surface S302 is plated with an anti-reflection film; the beam splitting prism 4 is made of G 1, and the beam splitting surface S401 is plated with a 50:50 beam splitting film, the surface S402 is not plated with a film, and the surfaces S403, S404 and S405 are plated with antireflection films, similar to the glass arm compensation reflector 1.
An external light beam (usually from a receiving telescope of HSRL system) enters from the surface S405 (or the surface S404), is split into two beams by the beam splitting surface S401, is reflected by the outer surface S101 of the glass arm compensating mirror and the outer surface S301 of the mixing arm compensating mirror 3 respectively, and then is combined and interfered again by the beam splitting surface S401. One path of the interference beam returns from the surface S405 (or the surface S404) to be called a reflection channel; the other path is turned by 90 degrees and exits from the surface S404 (or the surface S405), which is called a transmission channel. It is typically only necessary to receive the frequency discrimination signal from the transmission channel, the interference phases of the two channels being 180 deg. apart.
In the embodiment of the invention, the specific implementation manner of the sealing cavity 5 and the air pressure tuning mechanism 6 is shown in fig. 4.

After the sealing cavity 5 and the air pressure tuning mechanism 6 are combined, the air pressure tuning range delta P of the device is approximately equal to 0.2 atm. The electric push rod 603 can be controlled by a host computer and has various working modes including scanning and stepping.

The actual operating band of the interferometer will no longer be limited by the field stretching conditions, but by the optical coating. The simulated optical path difference-field angle curve at the short cut-off wavelength 450 nm, and the effective half-field-wavelength curve characterizing the dispersion effect are shown in fig. 5.
In the embodiment of the invention, the optical axis of the input light beam can be coincident with or slightly inclined to the optical axis of the interferometer, and the interferometer has the largest effective field of view when the optical axes are coincident, and the simulated interferograms under 6 typical wavelengths are shown in fig. 6, wherein the half field of view corresponding to the marked circle in the figure is 10 degrees.
