In order to improve device, between total reflective mirror 19 and nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22, also has catoptron 20 and 21, as shown in Figure 3.
Described right angle reflector (15) can move forward and backward along the incident light direction.
The device of described precision measurement ultrashort laser pulse time synchronized will be calibrated before use, and calibration comprises following measurement concrete steps:
(1) at first will approach reflection-diaphotoscope 8 and be placed on two pulsed light beams to be measured on the intersection point in space, regulate the direction of thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8, make a light beam incide thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8 parts and see through thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8 outgoing, and the light beam part that another bundle incides on the thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8 is reflected by thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8, and forms co-linear beams;
(2) reflect a branch of directional light that enters in the correlation-measuring instrument 17 by 45 ° of total reflective mirrors 7, at first regulate quarter wave plate 11 and make and become circularly polarized light, polaroid 10 is divided into the essentially identical two-way of intensity polarization direction vertical reflection and transmission-polarizing light with the circularly polarized light of incident;
(3) after a branch of polarized light of going out by polaroid 10 transmissions reflects through total reflective mirror 19, incide on the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22;
(4) a branch of polarized light by polaroid 10 reflections reflects the reverberator 15 that meets at right angles that enters by 45 ° of total reflective mirrors 13 and 45 ° of total reflective mirror 14 structures through total reflective mirror 12, through total reflective mirror 16 this bundle polarized light is reflexed on the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22 again;
(5) block a direction and incide the pulse that approaches on the reflection-diaphotoscope 8, only stay any one monopulse incident, regulate the position of right angle reflector 15 before and after careful, the second harmonic that feasible two bundle polarized lights on inciding nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22 produce nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22 is along the angular bisector outgoing of two bundle incident polarized light; Show this moment from the light path of the orthogonal two-way light beam arrival in the two-way polarization direction of beam splitter 18 outputs nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 identical.
(6 pulses that will incide on the thin reflection-diaphotoscope 8 all let slip, and produce three second harmonic pulses that the space exit direction is different on nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22, incide on the line array CCD 23;
(7) multipulse signal that on test linear array CCD21 on the oscillograph 9, collects.
(8) mobile then right angle reflector 15 changes the light path of one road polarized light, and movable length is L, is measuring the change amount T that incides the second harmonic position on the line array CCD 21 on the oscillograph 9 0, the recurrent interval Δ T time corresponding that then obtains on the oscillograph 9 is:
t=2LΔT/T 0C
C is the light velocity in the vacuum in the formula.
Principle of the present invention is seen Fig. 4.At first two ultrashort pulses in space are merged into the parallel beam of a branch of dipulse, are divided into the essentially identical two bundle dipulse parallel beams of intensity then.With mutual delay is that the dipulse of Δ t is an example, close A that Shu Houzai is divided into and B two-way dipulse light beam in nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 22, three kinds of interaction modes just like Fig. 4 (a), Fig. 4 (b) and Fig. 4 (c) description, the second harmonic that will produce the outgoing of three beams different directions in the space incides on the line array CCD 21, and shows the pulse waveform shown in Fig. 4 (d) on oscillograph 9.Three pulses are equally spaced, and interval delta T is with regard to the time-delay Δ t between the corresponding dipulse.According to the result of calibration, just can extrapolate pulse delay Δ t from the recurrent interval Δ T that oscillograph 9 shows.
The principle of measuring is, when A road light and B road light were staggered in crystal, two pulses in the light of A road and two pulse meetings in the light of B road were intersected four positions respectively.Wherein, Fig. 4 (a) is when the previous pulse in previous pulse in the light of A road and the B road light is intersected, because identical time-delay is arranged, a back pulse and the back pulse in the light of B road in nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 in same A road, the position light are intersected; When Fig. 4 (b) intersects when the back pulse in the light of A road and the previous pulse in the light of B road, because with different time-delay among Fig. 4 (a), so their intersection points in nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 are also different with the intersection point under Fig. 4 (a) situation, when Fig. 4 (c) intersects when the back pulse in previous pulse in the light of A road and the B road light, because with different time-delay among Fig. 4 (a), Fig. 4 (b), so their intersection points in nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 are also different with the intersection point under Fig. 4 (a), Fig. 4 (b) situation.Simultaneously because the time-delay of former and later two pulses is identical, so three intersection points in the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 are equidistant.Between the intersection point under intersection point on the time-delay Δ t of two ultrashort pulses in space and the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20 under Fig. 4 (a) situation and Fig. 4 (b) situation apart from x 0The pass be:
Figure A0311663200071
Wherein is that two-beam incides the angle on the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20, and n is the refractive index of nonlinear crystal KDP sheet 20.x 0The recurrent interval Δ T that shows on oscillograph 9 just can extrapolate recurrent interval Δ t from the recurrent interval Δ T that oscillograph 9 shows.
Compare with first technology, the present invention has outstanding feature:
1, adopt thin reflection-diaphotoscope that the pulse of two different directions incidents is merged into the directional light of a branch of dipulse, beam splitting converges in the nonlinear crystal sheet and produces second harmonic then.And be that two pulses directly produce second harmonic in the nonlinear crystal sheet in the technology formerly.
2, after calibration, do not need to change light path in the time of measurement, measuring method is simple, does not have machine error and reading error.And formerly in the technology, need measure interval between the pulse by the position of mobile right angle reflector.
3, the precision height of Ce Lianging can reach the magnitude of fs.And formerly in the technology, owing to be subjected to the restriction of screw rod precision, the magnitude of the precision>33fs of measurement.
4, two beam pulse light can be angles at any angle, and formerly in the technology angle of two-beam be subjected to the restriction of the matching angle of crystal.
5, do not need to adopt expensive components such as piezoelectric ceramics, and it is big to measure dynamic range, can reaches the magnitude of ps.

(6将入射到薄反射—透射镜(8)上的脉冲都放过来,在非线性晶体KDP片(22)上产生三个空间出射方向不同的二次谐波脉冲,入射到线阵CCD(23)上;(6 the pulse incident on the thin reflection-transmission mirror (8) is all put over, on the nonlinear crystal KDP sheet (22), three second harmonic pulses with different spatial exit directions are produced, and are incident to the linear array CCD ( 23) on; (7)在示波器(9)上测试线阵CCD(21)上采集到的多脉冲信号。(7) On the oscilloscope (9), test the multi-pulse signal collected on the linear array CCD (21). (8)然后移动直角反射器(15)改变一路偏振光的光程,移动长度为L,在示波器(9)上测量入射到线阵CCD(21)上的二次谐波位置的改变量T0,则示波器(9)上得到的脉冲间隔ΔT对应的时间为:(8) Then move the right-angle reflector (15) to change the optical path of one path of polarized light, and the moving length is L, and measure the amount of change T of the second harmonic position incident on the linear array CCD (21) on the oscilloscope (9) 0 , then the time corresponding to the pulse interval ΔT obtained on the oscilloscope (9) is: t=2LΔT/T0Ct=2LΔT/T 0 C 式中C是真空中的光速。where C is the speed of light in vacuum.
