Abstract

We presented a novel type of liquid refractometer. It is composed of a heterodyne light source, a coupling lens, a polarization maintaining fiber, a collimating lens, a probe module, a phase meter, a chip, and a digital display. The probe module consists of an isosceles trapezoid prism with a known refractive index, a beam-splitter, a mirror, two analyzers, and two photodetectors. The light coming from the heterodyne light source is guided by polarization maintaining fiber and incidents on the isosceles trapezoid prism of the probe module. And it is totally reflected three times in the prism. The total-internal-reflection will induce the phase difference between s-polarization and p-polarization. If the bottom of the isosceles trapezoid prism contacts the test liquid, the phase difference will be varied. According to the Fresnel's equations and the phase difference variation, the refractive index of the test liquid can be obtained.

Description

β液體折射率的量測一直是化學工業上的一個重要課 題。例如,單純液體種類的辨識與混合液體成分的分析, 都可以由其折射率的量測來完成。為了滿足實驗或加工產 品的尚品質,必須要求液體折射率量測的高精罐度。而在 快速的生產線上,即時的量測系統變的更為重要。在一般 光學測量文獻中,有介紹利时涉儀【Κ3】^量液體折 射率的方法;雖然有报好的解析度,但是由於體積過於龐 大,而且又容易受到外界擾動的影響,所以干涉儀的方法 不適用於任何的場合,特別是在環境震動強烈的地方/ 在市售的液體折射率計中,以Abbe折射率計【4】 ^為常見。它主要的工作原理是根據幾何光學中的全反射 時之臨界角與SneU'slaw而來的,操作時需以望遠鏡或顯 微鏡來定出臨界角的位置。並用此臨界角推算出待測液體 折射率。另外,根據幾何光學原理所製成的折射率計還有 Pulfrich折射率計【4】,miger_Chance折射率計【*】 等。這些折射率計雖有體積小的優點,但是仍然有些缺點 存在. 1 ·由於需要做臨界角角度的量測’所以液體折射率的測 量精確度會受限於尺規的最小刻度。 2·由於它是測量光強度的關係,在測量全反射的臨界角 時,报容易受到環境背景光的干擾,所以必須在有遮 蔽或隔離其他不必要光源的情況下進行測量。同時它 也容易受到光源穩定度的影響。 本紙張尺度適财關家縣(CNS ) &amp;4祕(21GX297公產) - 1— .1— · .------!

For example, identification of pure liquid types and analysis of mixed liquid components can be accomplished by measuring their refractive index. In order to meet the high quality of experimental or processed products, high precision cans of liquid refractive index measurement must be required. On fast production lines, the instant measurement system becomes more important. In the general optical measurement literature, there is a method for measuring the refractive index of liquids [K3] ^; although there is a good resolution, but because the volume is too large, and it is easily affected by external disturbances, the interferometer The method is not suitable for any occasion, especially in places with strong environmental vibrations / in the commercially available liquid refractive index, Abbe refractive index [4] ^ is common. Its main working principle is based on the critical angle of total reflection in geometrical optics and SneU'slaw. The position of the critical angle needs to be determined by a telescope or microscope in operation. And use this critical angle to calculate the refractive index of the liquid to be measured. In addition, the refractometers made according to the principles of geometric optics include Pulfrich refractometer [4], miger_Chance refractometer [*], and so on. Although these refractive index meters have the advantages of small volume, they still have some disadvantages. 1 · Because the critical angle angle measurement is needed, the measurement accuracy of liquid refractive index will be limited by the minimum scale of the ruler. 2. Since it is a measurement of light intensity, when measuring the critical angle of total reflection, the signal is susceptible to interference from ambient background light, so it must be measured under the condition of shielding or isolating other unnecessary light sources. It is also easily affected by the stability of the light source. This paper is suitable for Guancai County (CNS) &amp; 4 secrets (21GX297)-1— .1— · .------!

The liquid to be measured must be moved to the instrument for measurement. Cannot be printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Central Standards Bureau of the Ministry of Economics (2) Summary of the invention Based on the advantages and disadvantages of the above methods, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a liquid refractive index meter with small size and high precision And it can meet the requirements of stability, no external disturbance, no interference from ambient background light, suitable for various occasions, and real-time measurement. The most important part of the present invention is the design of the probe module, which includes an isosceles trapezoid made of a glass material with a high refractive index, a half mirror, a mirror, two analyzers, and two detectors. Modular device made up of measuring devices. When a heterodyne light source [5] enters this module, it is first divided into two parts: reflected light and transmitted light by the beam splitter; the reflected light enters the detector after passing through the first analyzer plate, and the detector ’s The output signal is a reference signal. On the other hand, the penetrating light enters the isosceles trapezoid 稜鏡 vertically. The light will have three total reflections at a fixed angle between the waist and the bottom of the chestnut. At this time, the medium that is in contact with the waist and the bottom of the chestnut is air. After the light leaves vertically, it passes through the mirror and passes through another analyzer, and is received by another detector. The signal received at this time is a test signal. Send the reference signal and test L number to the phase meter to get an initial phase difference. Then the bottom surface of the isosceles trapezoidal prism is brought into contact with the liquid to be measured. The phase difference also changes because the medium in contact with the total reflection surface of the base is changed. Then the phase meter directly calculates the amount of phase difference caused by the liquid to be measured, and substitutes this amount of phase difference into the formula derived from the Fresnel equation.

Description of the invention (4) 17: single chip (chip); 18: digital display (digital display). First, the light emitted by the heterodyne light source 11 is introduced into the polarization maintaining fiber 13 through the coupling lens 12 and then transmitted by the collimating lens [4, which collimates the light and enters the probe module 15. Then, the light is divided into reflections by the beam splitter 15m. Light and transmitted light; after reflected light passes through the analyzer 152, s-polarized light and p-polarized light The components in the 45 direction interfere with each other, and then the interference signal is taken out by the light detector 1 54. The output signal of the detector is used as a reference signal. It is a sine wave signal with a frequency that is the difference frequency of the heterodyne light source. We set it Is eight, then 'r can be written as a stage [1 + coffee (2 硪 + also)]' (1) and the phase clamp is the phase difference caused by the s-polarized and p-polarized light reflected by the beam splitter 15 5. On the other hand, the 'penetrating light' enters the isosceles trapezoid 稜鏡 156 vertically. In an isosceles trapezoidal ridge (see Figure 2), the light leaves the ridge's waist surface 21, bottom surface 22, and waist surface 23 each after a total reflection at a fixed angle (60 °). ; At this time, the medium in contact with the total reflection interface is air. After the light exits the beam, it is reflected by the mirror 15? And passes through the analyzer 153; similarly, the 3 polarized light and the chirped light are also 45. The separation of the directions interfere with each other ', and then the interference signal is taken out by the light detector 1 5 5. This is called the output signal of the detector as the test signal. It is also a sine wave signal with a frequency of the heterodyne light source.

Then, the bottom surface 22 of the isosceles trapezoid 稜鏡 1 56 is brought into contact with the liquid to be measured. Due to the change of the medium in contact with the total reflection surface of the tritium bottom surface, the test signal becomes / 2 = | [l + cos (2 iodine + Mo + buckle)], (3) and the phase sum is the bottom surface 22 and the liquid to be measured After the contact, the sum of the phase differences introduced by total reflection at three points B, D, and F between s-polarized light and p-polarized light. At this time, the phase difference measured by the phase meter becomes (朽 + ίZO & M_ 化). By sending the values of (Hm-A) and (iZ> 2 + 0M- <r) to a single chip, the amount of change in phase difference before and after contact with the liquid can be calculated as (# 2_ 化).

In the present invention, the refractive index of a liquid is measured based on the principle of the phase difference change caused by total reflection, so the light must meet the conditions of total reflection in the light. Due to the special design of ytterbium in the present invention, the total reflection angle is fixed at 60 '. Under the condition that the total reflection conditions are satisfied, the relationship between the refractive index of the liquid to be measured and the ytterbium refractive index is:' n = «psin60 ° = ^« p , ⑻ In other words, the measurable range of the refractive index of the liquid to be measured will be limited by the refractive index of 稜鏡. In order to make the measurement range sufficiently large, it is necessary to select a glass with a higher refractive index as the material of the rubidium. Taking the commonly used SF11 glass as an example, the refractive index of He-Ne laser at 632.8nm is} _77862. According to formula (8) ', it can be known that the maximum refractive index of the liquid that can be measured is about ι · 5; that is, any liquid whose refractive index is in the range of i to i 5 can be measured. This range is already sufficient for most liquids. ---; ------ installed -------- order-.. {Please read the notes on the back before filling in this page j 'line --- Staff Consumer Cooperatives, Central Standards Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed 408220 A7 ---____ V. Description of the invention (8) The optical elements in the present invention, including a beam splitter, isosceles trapezoid, a reflector, an analyzer and a light detector, can be assembled into one Small size probe hardware module.
