The invention belongs to the field of
laser interference measurement, and relates to a
quadrature error-free single-path polarization interference and double-
Wollaston prism light-splitting type homodyne
laser vibration meter. An interference part generates a single path of
linear polarization reference light and
linear polarization measurement light whose polarization directions are orthogonal and light paths are overlapped through a quarter-wave plate and a polarization-eliminating
beam splitter NBS, and in a detection part, reference light and measurement light generate four paths of photoelectric signals with a
phase difference of 90 degrees through two Wollaston prisms whose
spatial rotation angles around light beams form a specific relation, thereby obtaining an outstanding characteristic of inhibiting a nonlinear error from a light path structure and in principle. The
quadrature error-free single-path polarization interference and double-
Wollaston prism light-splitting type homodyne
laser vibration meter provided by the invention adopts less optical elements to realize four-channel homodyne quadrature
laser interference measurement, can effectively solve the problems in an existing technical scheme that polarization leakage and polarization
aliasing exist in the light paths, a
direct current biased error and a non-
quadrature error exist in an output
signal, and a nonlinear error of a measurement result is obvious, and thus has remarkable technical advantages in the field of ultra-precise
vibration measurement.
