Description

掃描式光柵光譜儀 Scanning grating spectrometer

本揭露是有關於一種光譜儀,且特別是有關於一種掃描式光柵光譜儀。 The present disclosure is directed to a spectrometer, and more particularly to a scanning grating spectrometer.

進年來由於電子、生化、醫學、光電等各領域蓬勃發展,對各種材料的物理化學特性分析的需求日遽增加。光譜儀是物理化學分析儀器的一種,可依照其工作波長範圍區分為不同種類的光譜儀,如紫外-可見光譜儀、近紅外線光譜儀和紅外線光譜儀。紫外-可見光譜儀常用於顏色測量、水質分析以及生化檢驗等,禁紅外光光譜儀可應用於食品加工業、製藥業的製程監測,紅外光光譜儀則常用於氣體分析。光譜分析的特點包括非破壞性、具化學鑑別力、具波長變通性、靈敏度高及分析速度快。 In recent years, due to the vigorous development of various fields such as electronics, biochemistry, medicine, and optoelectronics, the demand for analysis of physical and chemical properties of various materials has increased. The spectrometer is a kind of physicochemical analysis instrument, which can be divided into different kinds of spectrometers according to its working wavelength range, such as ultraviolet-visible spectrometer, near-infrared spectrometer and infrared spectrometer. UV-visible spectrometers are commonly used for color measurement, water quality analysis, and biochemical tests. Forbidden infrared spectrometers can be used for process monitoring in the food processing industry and the pharmaceutical industry. Infrared spectrometers are commonly used for gas analysis. Spectral analysis features non-destructive, chemically discriminating, wavelength-variable, high sensitivity and fast analysis.

傳統光譜儀一般是以線性偵測元件如線陣型電荷耦合元件偵測器(charged coupled device line array sensor),光譜的波長即對應為此線性偵測元件上的相對位置,換言之,是一波長與光偵測元件位置的空間函數。 Conventional spectrometers are generally linear detection elements such as a charged coupled device line array sensor. The wavelength of the spectrum corresponds to the relative position on the linear detection element, in other words, a wavelength and light. A spatial function that detects the position of a component.

然而,線性偵測元件通常造價昂貴,特別是光譜儀中常 用的電荷耦合元件偵測器,其訊噪比不容易提升,因而需要搭配冷卻系統來降低雜訊。 However, linear sensing components are often expensive, especially in spectrometers. The charge-coupled component detector used does not easily increase the signal-to-noise ratio, so a cooling system is needed to reduce noise.

掃描式光譜儀是以掃描式光柵搭配單點光偵測元件,透過將掃描式光柵轉動進行掃描,可使得單點光偵測元件在不同時間得到個別光波長的訊號從而描繪出光譜圖,換言之,是波長與光柵掃描速度的時間函數。由於不需使用造價昂貴的線陣型電荷耦合元件偵測器以及冷卻系統,因此掃描式光譜儀的成本較低,並且可具有更高的訊雜比。 The scanning spectrometer is a scanning grating with a single-point photodetecting element. By scanning the scanning grating, the single-point photodetecting component can obtain the signal of the individual optical wavelengths at different times to describe the spectrum, in other words, It is a function of the time of the wavelength and the raster scan speed. Scanning spectrometers are less expensive and can have higher signal-to-noise ratios because they do not require the use of expensive linear array charge-coupled component detectors and cooling systems.

然而,掃描式光譜儀存在如下缺點:一般而言,掃描式光柵的轉動頻率都被視為固定常數,一旦掃描頻率因故發生不穩定(光柵掃描轉動的頻率改變、掃描的角度範圍改變等),如此一來會產生錯誤的光譜圖。 However, the scanning spectrometer has the following disadvantages: in general, the rotational frequency of the scanning grating is regarded as a fixed constant, and once the scanning frequency is unstable due to the reason (the frequency of the raster scanning rotation changes, the angular range of the scanning changes, etc.), This will result in an incorrect spectrum.

本揭露的一實施例的掃描式光柵光譜儀適於將一待測光轉換為光譜圖,掃描式光柵光譜儀包括一掃描式光柵、至少一參考光源、至少二光接收模組以及一處理單元。參考光源適於向掃描式光柵提供準直的參考光。光接收模組接收經掃描式光柵調製後的參考光,以分別產生多個參考訊號。處理單元擷取這些光接收模組所產生的參考訊號,並根據這些光接收模組所接收到的這些參考訊號之間的時間差校正光譜圖。 The scanning grating spectrometer of an embodiment of the present disclosure is adapted to convert a light to be measured into a spectrogram. The scanning grating spectrometer comprises a scanning grating, at least one reference light source, at least two light receiving modules and a processing unit. The reference source is adapted to provide collimated reference light to the scanning grating. The light receiving module receives the reference light modulated by the scanning grating to generate a plurality of reference signals respectively. The processing unit captures the reference signals generated by the light receiving modules, and corrects the spectrum according to the time difference between the reference signals received by the light receiving modules.

圖1是本揭露的第一實施例中的掃描式光柵光譜儀的示意圖,請參考圖1,在本實施例中,掃描式光柵光譜儀100適於將一待測光SB轉換為光譜圖,掃描式光柵光譜儀100包括一掃描式光柵110、至少一參考光源120、至少二光接收模組(本實施例中以二個為例)PD1、PD2以及一處理單元130。參考光源120適於向掃描式光柵110提供準直的參考光RB。光接收模組PD1、PD2接收經掃描式光柵110調製後的參考光RB,以產生參考訊號RS。處理單元130擷取光接收模組PD1、PD2所產生的參考訊號RS,並根據光接收模組PD1、PD2所接收到的參考訊號RS1、RS2之間的時間差校正光譜圖。校正的細節將於後續詳述之。 1 is a schematic diagram of a scanning grating spectrometer in a first embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, in the present embodiment, the scanning grating spectrometer 100 is adapted to convert a light to be measured SB into a spectrogram, a scanning grating. The spectrometer 100 includes a scanning grating 110, at least one reference light source 120, at least two light receiving modules (two in this embodiment as an example) PD1, PD2, and a processing unit 130. The reference source 120 is adapted to provide collimated reference light RB to the scanning grating 110. The light receiving modules PD1 and PD2 receive the reference light RB modulated by the scanning grating 110 to generate a reference signal RS. The processing unit 130 captures the reference signal RS generated by the light receiving modules PD1 and PD2, and corrects the spectrum according to the time difference between the reference signals RS1 and RS2 received by the light receiving modules PD1 and PD2. The details of the correction will be detailed later.

在本實施例中,掃描式光柵光譜儀100更包括一反射鏡組140,且掃描式光柵110為一反射式光柵。舉例而言,本實施例中的反射鏡組140可為具有聚光能力的凹面鏡,但本揭露不以此為限。其中,參考光RB以及待測光SB可由入射狹縫ST進入掃描式光柵光譜儀100,被反射鏡組140被準直化且反射以朝向至掃描式光柵110,再被掃描式光柵110反射至反射鏡組140後,朝向光接收模組PD1、PD2所位於的一側傳遞而能夠被偵測到。 In this embodiment, the scanning grating spectrometer 100 further includes a mirror group 140, and the scanning grating 110 is a reflective grating. For example, the mirror group 140 in this embodiment may be a concave mirror having a light collecting capability, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. The reference light RB and the light to be measured SB may enter the scanning grating spectrometer 100 from the incident slit ST, be collimated by the mirror group 140 and reflected to face the scanning grating 110, and then reflected by the scanning grating 110 to the mirror. After the group 140 is transmitted to the side where the light receiving modules PD1, PD2 are located, it can be detected.

此外,為了降低預期以外的反射光或散射光,可在掃描式光柵光譜儀100的遮光殼體160的內表面上塗佈著吸光材質,吸光材質的材料例如可以是氧氮化鉻(CrNO),且入射狹縫ST亦可製作於氧氮化鉻薄膜上。 In addition, in order to reduce reflected light or scattered light other than expected, a light absorbing material may be coated on the inner surface of the light shielding case 160 of the scanning grating spectrometer 100, and the material of the light absorbing material may be, for example, chromium oxynitride (CrNO). The incident slit ST can also be formed on a chromium oxynitride film.

圖1中所繪示的各元件的配置位置與光傳遞路徑作為例示說明,本揭露不以此為限,在其他實施例中亦可具有不同的變化。 The arrangement position and the light transmission path of the components shown in FIG. 1 are exemplified. The disclosure is not limited thereto, and may be different in other embodiments.

以下,為了便於理解,將在圖2A以及圖2B中省略待測光SB的光路。 Hereinafter, for ease of understanding, the optical path of the light to be measured SB will be omitted in FIGS. 2A and 2B.

圖2A繪示出圖1實施例中的掃描式光柵光譜儀的掃描式光柵在轉動呈某一角度時的光路示意圖。圖2B繪示出圖1實施例中的掃描式光柵光譜儀的掃描式光柵在轉動呈另一角度時的光路示意圖。請先參照圖1及圖2A,在本實施例中,掃描式光柵110進行往復式轉動掃描(如以A-A’方向往復轉動),連帶使參考光RB進行往復掃描(如以B-B’方向往復掃描),從而在不同時間點分別被光接收模組PD1或光接收模組PD2接收。 2A is a schematic view showing the optical path of the scanning grating of the scanning grating spectrometer in the embodiment of FIG. 1 when the rotation is at an angle. 2B is a schematic view showing the optical path of the scanning grating of the scanning grating spectrometer in the embodiment of FIG. 1 when the rotation is at another angle. Referring first to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A, in the present embodiment, the scanning grating 110 performs a reciprocating rotational scan (eg, reciprocating in the A-A' direction), and the reference light RB is reciprocally scanned (eg, as B-B). The 'direction reciprocating scan' is received by the light receiving module PD1 or the light receiving module PD2 at different points in time.

請繼續參考圖2A,參考光源120例如是具有一雷射光源,而參考光源RB例如是雷射光源所提供的具有單一波長峰值的光。在圖2A中,掃描式光柵110以A-A’方向轉動至某一角度,參考光RB經過入射狹縫ST而形成點光源並朝向反射鏡組140傳遞,經掃瞄式光柵110調製後而被光接收模組PD1接收。此時光接收模組PD1將所接收到的參考光RB的訊號轉換為參考訊號RS1傳遞至處理單元130,處理單元130紀錄接收到參考光RB時的時間點以及參考光RB的強度。 With continued reference to FIG. 2A, reference light source 120 has, for example, a laser source, and reference source RB is, for example, light having a single wavelength peak provided by a laser source. In FIG. 2A, the scanning grating 110 is rotated to an angle in the A-A' direction, and the reference light RB passes through the incident slit ST to form a point source and is transmitted toward the mirror group 140, which is modulated by the scanning grating 110. Received by the light receiving module PD1. At this time, the optical receiving module PD1 converts the received signal of the reference light RB into the reference signal RS1 and transmits it to the processing unit 130. The processing unit 130 records the time point when the reference light RB is received and the intensity of the reference light RB.

接著,請參考圖2B,在圖2B中,掃描式光柵110以A’-A方向轉動至另一角度,參考光RB經掃瞄式光柵110調製後而被光 接收模組PD2接收。此時光接收模組PD2將所接收到的參考光RB的訊號轉換為參考訊號RS2傳遞至處理單元130,處理單元130紀錄接收到參考光RB時的時間點以及參考光RB的強度。 Next, referring to FIG. 2B, in FIG. 2B, the scanning grating 110 is rotated in the A'-A direction to another angle, and the reference light RB is modulated by the scanning grating 110 to be light. The receiving module PD2 receives. At this time, the optical receiving module PD2 converts the received signal of the reference light RB into the reference signal RS2 and transmits it to the processing unit 130. The processing unit 130 records the time point when the reference light RB is received and the intensity of the reference light RB.

由於掃瞄式光柵110會往復地進行轉動掃描,因此參考光RB也會往復地輪流在不同時間點被光接收模組PD1、PD2接收。 Since the scanning grating 110 performs the rotational scanning reciprocally, the reference light RB is also reciprocally rotated and received by the light receiving modules PD1, PD2 at different points in time.

圖2C繪示出本揭露第一實施例中的掃描式光柵光譜儀100所偵測到的訊號強度對時間的示意圖,請參考圖2A至圖2C,在圖2C中,實線曲線代表參考光RB被光接收模組PD1接收到的訊號隨時間的變化,虛線曲線代表參考光RB被光接收模組PD2接收到的訊號隨時間的變化,由於參考光RB往復地輪流在不同時間點被光接收模組PD1、PD2接收,因此在圖2C中會呈現實線曲線與虛線曲線的峰值隨時間推演而有交錯的圖樣產生。其中,在圖2C中的實線曲線與虛線曲線的峰值之間的時間差△t,代表參考光RB被光接收模組PD1接收後,隨著掃描式光柵110的轉動掃描,至被光接收模組PD2接收之間所需的時間。 2C is a schematic diagram showing signal intensity versus time detected by the scanning grating spectrometer 100 in the first embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 2A to FIG. 2C, in FIG. 2C, the solid line curve represents the reference light RB. The change of the signal received by the light receiving module PD1 with time, the broken line curve represents the change of the signal received by the reference light RB by the light receiving module PD2 with time, since the reference light RB is reciprocally rotated and received by the light at different time points The modules PD1, PD2 are received, so that in Figure 2C, the peaks of the solid curve and the dashed curve are deduced with time and the interlaced pattern is generated. The time difference Δt between the solid line curve in FIG. 2C and the peak value of the broken line curve indicates that the reference light RB is received by the light receiving module PD1, and then scanned by the scanning grating 110 to the light receiving mode. The time required between group PD2 reception.

另一方面,在本實施例中,參考光RB被光接收模組PD1接收後,隨著掃描式光柵110的轉動掃描,至被光接收模組PD2接收之間的掃描波長範圍(相關於光接收模組PD1及光接收模組PD2之間的距離)若為波長範圍△λ,則可根據波長範圍△λ以及上述時間差△t的比值計算出實際的當前掃描式光柵的轉動掃描速度△λ(t),即:△λ(t)=△λ/△t On the other hand, in the present embodiment, after the reference light RB is received by the light receiving module PD1, the scanning wavelength range between the receiving of the scanning grating 110 and the receiving by the optical receiving module PD2 (related to the light) If the distance between the receiving module PD1 and the light receiving module PD2 is the wavelength range Δλ, the actual scanning speed of the current scanning grating Δλ can be calculated according to the ratio of the wavelength range Δλ and the time difference Δt. (t), ie: △λ(t)=△λ/Δt

並且,由於參考光RB的波長已知且可以根據需求設定之,因此在實際的當前掃描式光柵的轉動掃描速度△λ(t)被計算出來後,可利用外推法進行整個波長範圍△λ進行光譜定位,即:λunknown=△λ(t)×t’+λref其中,λunknown代表欲測量的待測光波長,λref代表所述參考光的波長,t’代表所述光接收模組所接收到的欲測量的待測光以及參考光之間的時間差。 Moreover, since the wavelength of the reference light RB is known and can be set according to requirements, after the actual scanning scanning speed Δλ(t) of the current scanning grating is calculated, the entire wavelength range Δλ can be performed by extrapolation. Perform spectral localization, ie: λ unknown = Δλ(t) × t' + λ ref where λ unknown represents the wavelength of the light to be measured, λ ref represents the wavelength of the reference light, and t′ represents the light receiving mode The time difference between the light to be measured and the reference light received by the group.

藉此,透過光偵測模組PD1、PD2以及掃描式光柵110進行如上的作動,實際的當前掃描式光柵的轉動掃描速度△λ(t)可以被精確地測量出來,因此訊號強度對時間的圖形可以準確地被定位,從而能夠依據此訊號強度對時間的圖形轉換而得到精準波長的光譜圖。 Thereby, the above-mentioned operation is performed by the light detecting modules PD1, PD2 and the scanning grating 110, and the actual scanning scanning speed Δλ(t) of the current scanning grating can be accurately measured, so the signal intensity is time-dependent. The graphics can be accurately located so that a spectral map of the precise wavelength can be obtained based on the graphical conversion of this signal strength versus time.

圖2D繪示出由本揭露之掃描式光柵光譜儀所偵測到的待測光的訊號強度對時間的圖形,圖2E繪示出由圖2D的訊號強度對時間的圖形轉換而成的光譜圖。 2D is a graph showing the signal intensity versus time of the light to be detected detected by the scanning grating spectrometer of the present disclosure, and FIG. 2E is a spectrum diagram showing the pattern of the signal intensity versus time of FIG. 2D.

其中,由於掃描式光柵110往復地轉動掃描,因此可得到如圖2D中隨時間輪流出現的二個特徵波峰,在轉換為如圖2E的光譜圖時,其資料可取樣自圖2D中時間區間S-S’內的訊號資料,根據參考光RB的波長值並透過如上所述的外推法,可得到如圖2E所繪示的待測光SB的光譜圖。 Wherein, since the scanning grating 110 reciprocally rotates and scans, two characteristic peaks appearing in turn according to time in FIG. 2D can be obtained, and when converted into the spectrum diagram of FIG. 2E, the data can be sampled from the time interval in FIG. 2D. The signal data in the S-S', according to the wavelength value of the reference light RB and through the extrapolation method as described above, can obtain the spectrum of the light to be measured SB as shown in FIG. 2E.

另一方面,本揭露的掃描式光柵光譜儀100由於可以透過二個(或以上)的光偵測模組PD1、PD2偵測實際的掃描式光柵 110的轉動掃描速度,因此即使掃描式光柵110的轉動掃描速度因為某些原因而加倍時,仍能夠校正為正確的光譜圖。換言之,本揭露的掃描式光柵光譜儀100即使在不同掃瞄條件下仍能夠正確反應待測光SB的特徵波長峰值,同時亦能夠以較低的成本達到良好的解析度(小於5nm)。舉例而言,透過本揭露的掃描式光柵光譜儀100,經由控制掃描式光柵110的共振頻率,可達到商用拉曼光譜的解析度(小於0.3nm)。 On the other hand, the scanning grating spectrometer 100 of the present disclosure can detect the actual scanning grating through two (or more) light detecting modules PD1 and PD2. The rotational scanning speed of 110, therefore, even if the rotational scanning speed of the scanning grating 110 is doubled for some reason, it can be corrected to the correct spectral image. In other words, the scanning grating spectrometer 100 of the present disclosure can correctly reflect the characteristic wavelength peak of the light to be measured SB even under different scanning conditions, and at the same time, can achieve a good resolution (less than 5 nm) at a low cost. For example, through the scanning grating spectrometer 100 of the present disclosure, the resolution of the commercial Raman spectrum (less than 0.3 nm) can be achieved by controlling the resonant frequency of the scanning grating 110.
