The high precision of measuring, on a large scale, multiple degrees of freedom is the consistent target of pursuing of metering field all the time.Along with development of modern science and technology, multi-degree of freedom measurement to space object more and more demonstrates urgency and importance, and it has important effect in fields such as Aero-Space, biological cell engineering, robot, flexible manufacturing, assembling automatically, numerically-controlled machine detection, fiber alignment coupling and multiple degrees of freedom platforms.Common multi-degree of freedom measurement means comprise three coordinate measuring machine, the measurement of stereoscopic vision six degree of freedom, measure based on the six degree of freedom of holographic lens, the laser tracking measurement technology, based on multi-degree of freedom measurement of interference technique or the like, though these measuring techniques can reach certain measurement range, measuring accuracy is generally not high.Multi-degree of freedom measurement based on interference technique adopts ripe advanced laser interferometry technology to position and measure, and measuring process is simple relatively, and precision is higher.But the characteristic that this method one-parameter is measured has just determined it can only carry out the multiple degrees of freedom timesharing to be measured, and can't satisfy the multiple degrees of freedom dynamic real-time measurement.General three-axis numerical control class process equipment needs to detect 21 error components altogether, installs and once only measures an error component, and its testing process is loaded down with trivial details and very long.

Summary of the invention

The purpose of this utility model is to provide a kind of displacement and simultaneously-measured interference system of angle based on Faraday effect.Utilize the laser interference principle, promptly realized irrealizable nano-precision of other multi-degree of freedom measurement methods and large-range measuring characteristic, overcome one-parameter characteristic again based on the multi-degree of freedom measurement of interference technique.

The technical scheme that its technical matters that solves the utility model adopts is:

The orhtogonal linear polarizaiton light that two-frequency laser sends is divided into reference beam and measuring beam two-way through first beam splitter, and reference beam connects first detector behind the first analyzer beat frequency; Measuring beam is divided into transmitted light beam and folded light beam two-way by second beam splitter once more, transmitted light beam incident behind the former road of the incident light based on a Faraday effect return mechanism places the measurement plane mirror on the testee, incident is with another former road of incident light based on Faraday effect return mechanism of spline structure after the plane reflection mirror reflection for folded light beam, and incident places the same measurement plane mirror on the testee after the outgoing; Two-way light beam in the return mechanism of two former roads of the incident light based on Faraday effect of incident and outgoing is parallel to each other.

Be placed on the space micro motion platform measuring mirror, place a prism of corner cube nearby leaving micromotion platform, so no matter how the space micro motion platform moves, as long as reflection ray is caught by prism of corner cube, the light beam that utilizes the retro-reflective properties of prism of corner cube to guarantee to incide to measure mirror is parallel with the light beam strictness of returning through the measurement mirror reflection, by impinging perpendicularly on the fixed pan mirror after the second polarization spectro mirror reflection, according to the principle of reversibility of light path and the polarization characteristic of element, light beam will return by former road.But the laser emitting hole that can only cause measuring beam return laser light device like this, a therefore middle Faraday polarization apparatus that adds, the polarization state of change light beam makes measuring beam and reference beam beat frequency enter detector, realizes laser interferometry.

Place displacement angle real-time measurement system in the x of micromotion platform direction, realize the displacement measurement of micromotion platform x direction and around the measurement of angle of z axle based on Faraday polarization apparatus; Place one of displacement angle real-time measurement system based on Faraday polarization apparatus road interferometer in motion platform y direction, measure the displacement of micromotion platform in the y direction.

The beneficial effect that the utlity model has is:

1) the displacement angle real-time measurement system based on Faraday polarization apparatus has adopted laser interferometry, so the nanoscale measuring accuracy is arranged;

2) adopt prism of corner cube as laser reflex reflection device, the angular deflection of micromotion platform can guarantee that still light path returns by former road, constitutes laser interference.Therefore bigger displacement and measurement of angle scope are arranged;

3) overcome the shortcoming that common laser interferometer one-parameter is measured in the multi-degree of freedom measurement system, can carry out displacement angle and measure in real time simultaneously;

4) light channel structure is simple, and is easy for installation.

The utility model mainly is applicable to nanometer technology, micro photo-electro-mechanical technology, integrated circuit (IC) chip manufacturing technology, related electromagnetic levitation type, the air-flotation type nanoscale motion platform field of biotechnology field.

Embodiment

As shown in Figure 1, the orhtogonal linear polarizaiton light that two-frequency laser 1 sends is divided into reference beam and measuring beam two-way through first beam splitter 2, and reference beam connects first detector 4 behind first analyzer, 3 beat frequencies; Measuring beam is divided into transmitted light beam and folded light beam two-way by second beam splitter 5 once more, transmitted light beam incident behind the former road of the incident light based on a Faraday effect return mechanism places the measurement plane mirror 17 on the testee, incident is with another former road of incident light based on Faraday effect return mechanism of spline structure after plane mirror 6 reflections for folded light beam, and incident places the same measurement plane mirror 17 on the testee after the outgoing; Two-way light beam in the return mechanism of two former roads of the incident light based on Faraday effect of incident and outgoing is parallel to each other.

Inserting based on the former road of the incident light of Faraday effect return mechanism with transmitted light beam is example, the light beam that sees through second beam splitter 5 is divided into two different bunch polarized lights of frequency by first polarization spectroscope 7, by first polarization spectroscope, 7 beam reflected, its polarization state is parallel to paper, after it sees through the one 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 10, behind reference planes mirror 11 vertical reflections, see through the one 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 10 once more, owing to see through the 1/4th quarter wave plate 14 10 twice, its polarization state changes 90 °, become reference light after seeing through first polarization spectroscope 7, its polarization state is vertical with paper; See through the light beam of first polarization spectroscope 7, its polarization state is perpendicular to paper, through can optically-active 45 ° Faraday polarization apparatus 12, from incident direction, the polarization direction clockwise direction has changed 45 °, be incident to second polarization spectroscope 13, polarization spectroscope 13 is 45 ° of placements with the x-y plane, therefore its direction of shaking thoroughly is consistent with the direction of shaking thoroughly of incident light, it sees through polarization spectroscope 13, the measurement plane mirror 17 that is installed on the testee through the 2 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 15 reflexes to prism of corner cube 16, retro-reflective properties by prism of corner cube 16, again be incident to measurement plane mirror 17 after the parallel outgoing, after 17 reflections of measurement plane mirror, see through the 2 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 15 once more, because twice sees through the 2 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 15, its polarization state has changed 90 ° again, vertical with the direction of shaking thoroughly of polarization spectroscope 13, after polarization spectroscope 13 reflection, impinge perpendicularly on fixed pan mirror 14, the parallel placement of the direction of shaking thoroughly of the reflecting surface of fixed pan mirror 14 and polarization spectroscope 13.By the principle of reversibility of light path and the polarization characteristic of device, to be returned by former road behind the reference planes mirror vertical reflection: through polarization spectroscope 13 reflections, the 2 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 15-measurement plane mirror 17-prism of corner cube 16-measurement plane mirror 17-the 2 1/4 quarter wave plate 14 15, again be incident upon polarization spectroscope 13, because in return course, see through for twice once more in 1/4 quarter wave plate 14, its polarization state has changed 90 ° again on original basis, consistent with the direction of shaking thoroughly of polarization spectroscope 13, make it cross polarization spectroscope 13 by former Reuter, after after 45 ° of the clockwise optically-actives of Faraday polarization apparatus, become the linearly polarized light that the direction of vibration that returns by former road is parallel to paper, through 7 reflections of first polarization spectroscope,, enter second detector 9 with the reference light beat frequency through behind second analyzer 8.

Therefrom as can be seen, no matter measure mirror and how to move, its reflection ray just can guarantee that laser returns by former road as long as caught by prism of corner cube 16.If measure the plane motion of mirror do around the z direction, x is its translation displacement along X-axis, and θ is its angular displacement around the rotation of Z axle, and then the optical path difference of system can be expressed as:

OPD(x，θ)＝f(θ，α)x+g ₁(θ)Ls+g ₂(θ；n)Dr (1)

$f(\mathrm{\θ},\mathrm{\α})=\frac{8{\cos }^2(\mathrm{\α}-\mathrm{\θ})}{\cos \mathrm{\α}}---\left(2\right)$

g ₁(θ)＝-8sin ²θ (3)

$g_2(\mathrm{\θ};n)=\sqrt{{2n}^2-1+\cos 4\mathrm{\θ}}-\sqrt{2}n---\left(4\right)$

Wherein Dr is the diameter of prism of corner cube, and Ls measures the vertical range of the reflection spot of mirror to prism of corner cube the initial moment, and n is the refractive index of prism of corner cube, and α is the angle that initial time is measured mirror and incident laser.

In Fig. 2, the distance of the light beam that L1, L2 two bundles are parallel to each other is H, and two bundle laser are α with measuring the initial angle of mirror, when motion platform was done plane motion, 17 ' was the post exercise position of measurement plane mirror, and its anglec of rotation is θ, x1, the displacement of x2 for needing to measure.This moment, the optical path difference of two-way interferometer can be obtained by formula (1) formula:

OPD(x ₁，θ)＝f(θ，α)x ₁+g ₁(θ)Ls+g ₂(θ；n)Dr+g ₃(θ)cd (5)

OPD(x ₂，θ)＝f(θ，α)x ₂+g ₁(θ)Ls+g ₂(θ；n)Dr+g ₃(θ)cd (6)

Can obtain by formula (6)-(5)

ΔOPD＝OPD(x ₂，θ)-OPD(x ₁，θ)＝f(θ；α)(x ₂-x ₁) (7)

Can obtain by Fig. 2

$x_2-x_1=\frac{\sin \mathrm{\θ}}{\cos (\mathrm{\α}+\mathrm{\θ})}H---\left(8\right)$

Wushu (7) formula substitution (8) formula gets

$\mathrm{\ΔOPD}=\frac{8H}{\cos \mathrm{\α}}\cos (\mathrm{\α}+\mathrm{\θ})\sin \mathrm{\θ}---\left(9\right)$

Can obtain anglec of rotation θ by (9) formula

$\mathrm{\θ}=\frac{1}{2}[{\sin }^{-1}(\frac{\mathrm{\Δ}\mathrm{OPD}\cos \mathrm{\α}}{4H}+\sin \mathrm{\α})-\mathrm{\α}]$

Obtain after the motion platform anglec of rotation θ, just can obtain displacement x according to formula (5), formula (6) ₁, x ₂Place based on the displacement angle of Faraday effect at the y of micromotion platform direction of principal axis and one of to measure path laser interferometer simultaneously, just can measure the axial displacement of y simultaneously.Measure in real time when so just having realized the displacement angle of micromotion platform.
