Description

The two-chip type f theta lens of MEMS laser scanning device
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of two-chip type f theta lens of MEMS laser scanning device, relate in particular to and a kind ofly be the mems mirror of simple harmonic characteristic motion and produce the angle variable quantity that becomes sine relation in time, to realize the two-chip type f theta lens of the desired linear sweep effect of laser scanning device in order to correction.
Background technology
The used laser scanning device (LSU:Laser Scanning Unit) of laser beam printer (LBP:Laser Beam Print) utilizes the polygonal mirror (polygon mirror) of high speed rotating at present, with the scanning motion (laser beam scanning) that is used to control laser beam, as U.S. Pat 7079171, US6377293, US6295116, or as described in the patent I198966 of Taiwan.Its principle is as follows: utilize semiconductor laser give off laser beam (laser beam), earlier via collimating mirror (collimator), form parallel beam again via aperture (aperture), and after parallel beam passes through cylindrical mirror (cylindrical lens) again, can can be along the parallel focusing of parallel direction of the X-axis of main scanning direction (main scanning direction) and form wire imaging (line image) at the width on the Y-axis of sub scanning direction (sub scanning direction), be projected to again on the polygonal mirror of high speed rotating, and evenly being provided with polygonal mirror on the polygonal mirror continuously, it just in time is positioned at or approaches the focal position of above-mentioned wire imaging (line image).Projecting direction by polygonal mirror control laser beam, when continuous a plurality of catoptron high speed rotating, can be incident upon on the catoptron laser beam along the parallel direction of main scanning direction (X-axis) with identical tarnsition velocity (angular velocity) deflective reflector to f θ linear sweep eyeglass, and f θ linear sweep eyeglass is arranged at the polygonal mirror side, can be single-piece lens structure (single-element scanning lens) or is two formula lens structures.The function of this f θ linear sweep eyeglass is to make the laser beam of injecting the f Theta lens via the mirror reflects on the polygonal mirror can be focused into the ellipse luminous point and be incident upon light receiving surface (photoreceptor drum, be imaging surface) on, and the requirement of realization linear sweep (scanning linearity).Yet existing laser scanning device (LSU) has following point in the use:
(1) the manufacture difficulty height of rotary multi mirror and price are not low, increase the cost of manufacture of LSU relatively.
(2) polygonal mirror must possess the function of high speed rotating (as 40000 rev/mins), and precision requirement height, the minute surface Y-axis width that causes reflecting surface on the general polygonal mirror as thin as a wafer, thereby all need set up cylindrical mirror (cylindrical lens) in (LSU) of prior art, so that laser beam can be focused into line (on the Y-axis become a bit) through cylindrical mirror and be projeced on the catoptron of polygonal mirror again, thereby cause the increase of assembly cost and the increase of assembling operation.
(3) because existing polygonal mirror must high speed rotating (as 40000 rev/mins), cause Rotation Noise to improve relatively, and polygonal mirror must expend the long period from starting to working speed, increase the stand-by period after the start.
(4) in the package assembly of existing LSU, the laser beam central shaft that is projected to the polygonal mirror catoptron is not over against the central rotating shaft of polygonal mirror, so that when the f Theta lens that design matches, need consider simultaneously polygonal mirror from axle deviation (off axis deviation) problem, increase the design of f Theta lens relatively and make to go up difficulty.
In recent years since,, developed the mems mirror (MEMS mirror) of a kind of swing type (oscillatory) at present on the market, control laser beam flying in order to replace existing polygonal mirror in order to improve the problem of existing LSU package assembly.Mems mirror is torque oscillation device (torsionoscillators), has reflector layer on its top layer, can be by vibration swing reflector layer, the light reflection is scanned, can be applicable to the laser scanning device (LSU:laser scanning unit) of imaging system (imaging system), scanner (scanner) or laser printer (laser printer) future, its scan efficiency (Scanning efficiency) can be higher than traditional polygonal rotating mirror.As U.S. Pat 6,844,951, US6,956,597, produce at least one drive signal, the resonant frequency of the approaching a plurality of mems mirrors of its driving frequency, and with the drive mems mirror, to produce scanning pattern, similarly also have U.S. Pat 7,064,876, US7,184,187, US7,190,499, US2006/0113393; Or as Taiwan patent TW M253133, it utilizes mems mirror to replace existing rotary multi mirror and is arranged between the collimating mirror and f Theta lens in the LSU modular structure, controls the projecting direction of laser beam thus; Or as Jap.P. JP 2006-201350 etc.Described mems mirror has that assembly is little, and velocity of rotation is fast, advantage of low manufacturing cost.Yet because mems mirror is after receiving driven, to do simple harmonic motion, and the mode of this simple harmonic motion (harmonic motion) is that time and angular velocity are sine relation, the light that therefore is projeced into mems mirror after the mems mirror reflection reflection angle θ and the pass of time t be:
θ(t)=θ s·sin(2π·f·t) (1)
Wherein: f is the sweep frequency of mems mirror; θ sFor laser beam behind mems mirror, the scanning angle of monolateral maximum.
Therefore, Δ t under the identical time interval, pairing reflection angle become sine function (Sinusoidal) to change with the time, and promptly at identical time interval Δ t, reflection angle is changed to: Δ θ (t)=θ s(sin (2 π ft 1)-sin (2 π ft 2)), thereby be nonlinear relationship with the time, promptly when the light of this reflection is incident upon object with different angles, the spot distance that is produced in the identical time interval is at interval and inequality and increasing or decreasing in time.
For example, when the pendulum angle of mems mirror is positioned at sinusoidal wave crest and trough, angle variable quantity is increasing or decreasing in time, the mode of motion that forms the constant angular velocity rotation with existing polygonal mirror is different, if existing f Theta lens is applied to have on the laser scanning device (LSU) of mems mirror, can't revise the angle variable quantity that mems mirror produces, cause the laser light velocity that is incident upon on the imaging surface will produce speed scanning phenomenons such as non-, cause producing the imaging deviation that is positioned on the imaging surface.Therefore, for laser scanning device by mems mirror constituted, abbreviate MEMS laser scanning device (MEMS LSU) as, its characteristic is after laser beam scans via mems mirror, form the not equal angular scanning ray of constant duration, therefore press for the f Theta lens that development can be used in MEMS laser scanning device, with the correction scanning ray, thus can correct imaging on object.

Embodiment
With reference to Fig. 1, it is the synoptic diagram of optical path of the two-chip type f theta lens of MEMS laser scanning device of the present utility model.The two-chip type f theta lens of the MEMS laser scanning device that the utility model provides comprises first eyeglass 131 with the first optical surface 131a and second optical surface 131b, second eyeglass 132 with the 3rd optical surface 132a and the 4th optical surface 132b, is applicable to MEMS laser scanning device.Among the figure, MEMS laser scanning device mainly comprises LASER Light Source 11, mems mirror 10, cylindrical mirror 16, two photoelectric sensor 14a, 14b, and in order to the object of sensitization.In the drawings, object is a photosensitive drums (drum) 15.The light beam 111 that LASER Light Source 11 is produced projects on the mems mirror 10 by behind the cylindrical mirror 16.And the mode that mems mirror 10 swings with resonance is reflected into scanning ray 113a, 113b, 113c, 114a, 114b, 115a, 115b with light beam 111. Wherein scanning ray 113a, 113b, 113c, 114a, 114b, 115a, 115b are called sub scanning direction (sub scanning direction) in the projection of directions X, projection in the Y direction is called main scanning direction (mainscanning direction), and mems mirror 10 scanning angles are θ c.
With reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, wherein Fig. 2 is the graph of a relation of mems mirror scanning angle θ and time t.Because mems mirror 10 is simple harmonic motion, its movement angle is sinusoidal variations in time, so the ejaculation angle of scanning ray and time are nonlinear relationship.Crest a-a ' as shown and trough b-b ', its pendulum angle are significantly less than wave band a-b and a '-b ', and the unequal phenomenon of this angular velocity causes scanning ray to produce the imaging deviation easily on photosensitive drums 15.Therefore, photoelectric sensor 14a, 14b are arranged within mems mirror 10 maximum scans angle ± θ c, and its angle is ± θ p that laser beam is begun to be reflected by mems mirror 10 by the crest place of Fig. 2, is equivalent to the scanning ray 115a of Fig. 1 this moment; When photoelectric sensor 14a detected scanning light beam, expression mems mirror 10 swung to+θ p angle, was equivalent to the scanning ray 114a of Fig. 1 this moment; When mems mirror 10 scanning angles change as during a point of Fig. 2, are equivalent to scanning ray 113b position at this moment; LASER Light Source 11 will be driven and give off laser beam 111 this moment, and when being scanned up to the b point of Fig. 2, be equivalent to scanning ray 113c position this moment till (quite ± θ n angle is interior to give off laser beam 111 by LASER Light Source 11); When mems mirror 10 produced reversals of vibrations, as when the wave band a '-b ', LASER Light Source 11 was driven and begins to give off laser beam 111; So finish one-period.
With reference to Fig. 1 and Fig. 3, wherein Fig. 3 is the optical path figure by the scanning ray of first eyeglass and second eyeglass.Wherein, ± θ n is the effective scanning angle, when the rotational angle of mems mirror 10 enter ± during θ n, LASER Light Source 11 begins to give off laser beam 111, be reflected into scanning ray via mems mirror 10, when scanning ray is reflected by the first optical surface 131a of first eyeglass 131 and the second optical surface 131b during by first eyeglass 131, it is the scanning ray of linear relationship with the time with the time that the distance that mems mirror 10 is reflected becomes the scanning ray of nonlinear relationship to convert distance to.After scanning ray is by first eyeglass 131 and second eyeglass 132, optical property according to the first optical surface 131a, the second optical surface 131b, the 3rd optical surface 132a, the 4th optical surface 132b, scanning ray is focused on the photosensitive drums 15, thereby on photosensitive drums 15, form a luminous point (Spot) 2 that is listed as.On photosensitive drums 15, two farthest the spacing of luminous point 2 be called effective scanning window 3.Wherein, d 1Spacing, d for mems mirror 10 to first optical surface 131a 2Be spacing, the d of first optical surface 131a to the second optical surface 131b 3Be spacing, the d of the second optical surface 131b to the, three optical surface 132a 4Be spacing, the d of the 3rd optical surface 132a to the four optical surface 132b 5Be spacing, the R of the 4th optical surface 132b to photosensitive drums 15 1Be radius-of-curvature (Curvature), the R of the first optical surface 131a 2Be radius-of-curvature, the R of the second optical surface 131b 3Be radius-of-curvature and the R of the 3rd optical surface 132a 4It is the radius-of-curvature of the 4th optical surface 132b.
With reference to Fig. 4, it is for after scanning ray is incident upon on the photosensitive drums, the synoptic diagram that spot areas (spot area) changes with the difference of launching position.When scanning ray 113a is incident upon photosensitive drums 15 after optical axis direction sees through first eyeglass 131 and second eyeglass 132, because of the angle that is incident in first eyeglass 131 and second eyeglass 132 is zero, in the deviation ratio that main scanning direction produced is zero, and the luminous point 2a that therefore images on the photosensitive drums 15 is circle.When scanning ray 113b and 113c see through first eyeglass 131 and second eyeglass, 132 backs and when being incident upon photosensitive drums 15, non-vanishing because of being incident in first eyeglass 131 and second eyeglass 132 and the formed angle of optical axis, non-vanishing in the deviation ratio that main scanning direction produced, thus the formed luminous point of projected length relative scanning light 113a that causes at main scanning direction is bigger; This situation is also identical at sub scanning direction, departs from the formed luminous point of scanning ray of scanning ray 113a, also will be bigger; So the luminous point 2b, the 2c that image on the photosensitive drums 15 are ellipse, and the area of 2b, 2c is greater than 2a.Wherein, S A0With S B0Be the luminous point of scanning ray on mems mirror 10 reflectings surface length at main scanning direction (Y direction) and sub scanning direction (directions X).As shown in Figure 5, G aWith G bFor the Gaussian beam (Gaussian Beams) of scanning ray is the Y direction at 13.5% place and the beam radius of directions X in light intensity, only show the beam radius of Y direction among Fig. 5.
