In laser processing device 200, it is assumed that have the exchange of laser output section 300.This is because, according to workpiece 1 Specification, processing conditions etc., the wavelength suitable for the laser L of processing is different.Therefore, the laser L wavelength of injection is prepared mutually not Same multiple laser output sections 300.Here, the wavelength for preparing the laser L of injection is contained in 500~550nm wavelength band Laser output section 300, the laser L projected wavelength be contained in laser output section 300 in 1000~1150nm wavelength band and The laser L of injection wavelength is contained in the laser output section 300 in 1300~1400nm wavelength band.

[light path and direction of polarized light of the laser in laser processing device]
In laser processing device 200, the laser L of optically focused polarization is carried out to the workpiece 1 for being supported in supporting table 230 Light direction is the direction parallel with X-direction as shown in figure 11, and consistent with machine direction (laser L scanning direction). This, in reflective slms 410, laser L is reflected as P polarization light.This is because, being adjusted in reflective spatial light The optical modulation layer of device 410 processed use liquid crystal in the case of, in order to liquid crystal molecule with comprising to reflective slms 410 The face that the plane of the optical axis for the laser L that injection is projected is parallel is tilted, and during the orientation liquid crystal, is inhibiting the rotation in partial wave face In the state of to laser L implementing phases modulation (for example, referring to No. 3878758 publication of patent).On the other hand, dichroscope In 403, laser L is reflected as S-polarization light.This is because, compared with laser L is carried out into reflection as P polarization light, will swash Light L carries out reflecting this side as S-polarization light, for making the multilayer dielectric film corresponding with multiple wavelength of dichroscope 403 Number reduction etc. is applied, the design of dichroscope 403 becomes easy.
Therefore, in laser focusing portion 400, from speculum 402 via reflective slms 410 and 4f lens units The light path of 420 arrival dichroscopes 403 is set in the way of along X/Y plane, and reaches collector lens list from dichroscope 403 The light path of member 430 is set in the way of along Z-direction.
As shown in figure 9, in laser output section 300, laser L light path with along X-direction or Y direction (with interarea Plane parallel 301a) mode set.Specifically, the light path of speculum 303, Yi Jicong are reached from laser oscillator 310 Speculum 304 reaches the light of mirror unit 360 via the wavelength Slab element 330 of λ/2, polarization plate unit 340 and beam expander 350 Road is set in the way of along X-direction, reaches the light path and speculum of speculum 304 via shutter 320 from speculum 303 The light path for reaching speculum 363 from speculum 362 in unit 360 is set in the way of along Y direction.
Here, the laser L advanced along Z-direction from laser output section 300 to laser focusing portion 400 is as shown in figure 11, Reflected using speculum 402 to the direction parallel with X/Y plane, and it is incident to reflective slms 410.Now, with XY In in the parallel plane of plane, adjusted to the incident laser L of reflective slms 410 optical axis and from reflective spatial light It is angle [alpha] that the optical axis for the laser L that device 410 processed is projected, which constitutes acute angle,.On the other hand, as described above, in laser output section 300, laser L Light path set in the way of along X-direction or Y direction.
Therefore, in laser output section 300, it is necessary to not only using the wavelength Slab element 330 of λ/2 and polarization plate unit 340 as The output adjustment portion of adjustment laser L output plays a role, but also the polarised light side of the direction of polarized light as adjustment laser L Played a role to adjustment portion.
[the wavelength Slab element of λ/2 and polarization plate unit]
As shown in figure 14, the wavelength Slab element 330 of λ/2 has the wavelength plate 332 of support (first support) 331 and λ/2.Support 331 by the wavelength plate 332 of λ/2 can in the way of line is rotated centered on axis (first axle) XL parallel with X-direction, Keep the wavelength plate 332 of λ/2.The wavelength plate 332 of λ/2 is in direction of polarized light relative to its optic axis (for example, fast axles) tilt angle theta And in the case of incident laser L, line makes the θ of the direction of polarized light anglec of rotation 2 and projects laser L (reference pictures centered on axis X L 15)。
Polarization plate unit 340 has:Support (second support) 341, polarization plate (polarised light part) 342, light path are repaiied Positive plate (Light path correction part) 343.Support 341 can be with axis (second axis) with polarization plate 342 and Light path correction plate 343 The mode that line is rotated integrally centered on XL, keeps polarization plate 342 and Light path correction plate 343.The light of polarization plate 342 enters Penetrate face and light emergence face tilts predetermined angular (for example, Brewster's angle).Polarization plate 342 makes in the case of incident laser L The laser L consistent with the polarizing axis of polarization plate 342 P polarization light composition transmission, and reflect or absorb laser L S-polarization Light composition (reference picture 16).The light entrance face and light emergence face of light entrance face from Light path correction plate 343 to polarization plate 342 and light The opposite inclination of outgoing plane is oblique.Light path correction plate 343 makes to leave the light of the laser L on axis X L by transmission-polarizing tabula rasa 342 Axle is back on axis X L.
As described above, in laser focusing portion 400, in the plane parallel with X/Y plane in, to reflective slms 410 Incident laser L optical axis and the laser L projected from reflective slms 410 optical axis constitute the angle as acute angle Spend α (reference picture 11).On the other hand, in laser output section 300, laser L light path is with along the side of X-direction or Y direction Formula sets (reference picture 9).
Therefore, in polarization plate unit 340, line makes polarization plate 342 and Light path correction plate 343 1 centered on axis X L Body rotates, and as shown in figure 16, makes the direction tilt angle alpha that the polarizing axis of polarization plate 342 is parallel relative to Y direction. Thus, from the laser L of the injection of the polarization plate unit 340 direction of polarized light direction inclination angle parallel relative to Y direction Spend α.As a result, in reflective slms 410, laser L is reflected as P polarization light, and in dichroscope In 403, laser L is reflected as S-polarization light, and the laser L's of the optically focused of workpiece 1 to being supported in supporting table 230 is inclined The light direction that shakes turns into the direction parallel with X-direction.
In addition, as shown in figure 16, adjust the direction of polarized light to the incident laser L of polarization plate unit 340, and adjust from The luminous intensity for the laser L that polarization plate unit 340 is projected.To polarization plate unit 340 incident laser L direction of polarized light Adjustment is by being implemented as follows, i.e. in the wavelength Slab element 330 of λ/2, and line rotates the wavelength plate 332 of λ/2 centered on axis X L, And as shown in figure 15, the optic axis of the adjustment wavelength plate 332 of λ/2 is relative to the polarised light to the incident laser L of λ/2 wavelength plate 332 The angle in direction (for example, direction parallel with Y direction).
As more than, in laser output section 300, the wavelength Slab element 330 of λ/2 and polarization plate unit 340 serve not only as adjustment The output adjustment portion (in above-mentioned example, output attenuatoin portion) of laser L output plays a role, but also is used as adjustment laser L The direction of polarized light adjustment portion of direction of polarized light play a role.
[4f lens units]
As described above, a pair of lens 422,423 of 4f lens units 420 constitute the reflection of reflective slms 410 The face 410a and entrance pupil face 430a of condenser lens unit 430 is in the both sides telecentric optical system of imaging relations.It is specific and Speech, as shown in figure 17, the lens 422 of the side of reflective slms 410 and the reflecting surface of reflective slms 410 The distance of light path between 410a turns into the first focal length f1 of lens 422, the He of lens 423 of the side of condenser lens unit 430 The distance of light path between the entrance pupil face 430a of condenser lens unit 430 turns into the second focal length f2 of lens 423, thoroughly The distance of light path between mirror 422 and lens 423 turn into the first focal length f1 and the second focal length f2 and (that is, f1+ f2).Light path in the light path for reaching condenser lens unit 430 from reflective slms 410 between a pair of lens 422,423 For a straight line.
In laser processing device 200, from the laser L's on the reflecting surface 410a of increase reflective slms 410 From the viewpoint of effective diameter, the multiplying power M of both sides telecentric optical system meets 0.5 < M < 1 (reduction system).Reflective spatial The effective diameter of laser L on the reflecting surface 410a of optical modulator 410 is bigger, more with the phase pattern modulation laser L of fine. It is more excellent from the viewpoint of elongated from suppression reflective slms 410 to the laser L of condenser lens unit 430 light path Elect 0.6≤M≤0.95 as.Here, (the multiplying power M of both sides telecentric optical system)=(entrance pupil face of condenser lens unit 430 The size of picture on 430a)/(size of the object on the reflecting surface 410a of reflective slms 410).In laser plus Frock is put in the case of 200, the multiplying power M of both sides telecentric optical system, the first focal length f1 of lens 422 and lens 423 Second focal length f2 meets M=f2/f1.
In addition, the viewpoint of the effective diameter from the laser L on the reflecting surface 410a for reducing reflective slms 410 From the point of view of, the multiplying power M of both sides telecentric optical system can also meet 1 < M < 2 (amplification system).Reflective slms 410 Reflecting surface 410a on laser L effective diameter it is smaller, the multiplying power of beam expander 350 (reference picture 9) is smaller, with X/Y plane In in parallel plane, to the incident laser L of reflective slms 410 optical axis and from reflective spatial light modulation The angle [alpha] (reference picture 11) that the optical axis for the laser L that device 410 is projected is constituted diminishes.From suppress reflective slms 410 to Up to the laser L of condenser lens unit 430 light path it is elongated from the viewpoint of, more preferably 1.05≤M≤1.7.
In 4f lens units 420, the multiplying power M of both sides telecentric optical system is not 1, therefore, as shown in figure 18, when a pair it is saturating Mirror 422,423 along optical axis move when, the side of condenser lens unit 430 conjugate point movement.Specifically, in (the contractings of multiplying power M < 1 Mini system) in the case of, a pair of lens 422,423 along the side of optical axis direction condenser lens unit 430 move when, condenser lens unit The conjugate point of 430 sides is moved to the opposite side of reflective slms 410.On the other hand, in (the amplification systems of multiplying power M > 1 System) in the case of, a pair of lens 422,423 along the side of optical axis direction reflective slms 410 move when, collector lens list The conjugate point of first 430 sides is moved to the opposite side of reflective slms 410.Thus, in such as condenser lens unit 430 Installation site produce deviation in the case of, make the conjugate point of the side of condenser lens unit 430 and the incidence of condenser lens unit 430 Pupil plane 430a position alignments.In 4f lens units 420, as shown in figure 11, the multiple elongated hole 421a shapes extended along Y direction Into in the bottom wall of support 421, using the screw tightening via each elongated hole 421a, support 421 is fixed on to the bottom surface of basket 401 401b.Thus, along the position adjustment of a pair of lens 422,423 on the direction of optical axis by adjusting support along Y direction 421 implement relative to the bottom surface 401b of basket 401 fixed position.
