Abstract

The invention provides a Mach-Zehnder point diffraction interferometer, comprising an optical matching system, a first optical spectroscope, a second optical spectroscope, a first reflector, a second reflector, a first Fourier lens, a second Fourier lens, a third Fourier lens, a fourth Fourier lens, a pinhole filter, a CCD (charge coupled device) detector and a computer system. A method for reconstructing laser complex amplitudes comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out Fourier transform on collected carrier frequency interference fringes to acquire spectral distribution of the interference fringes; carrying out frequency-domain filtering to acquire zero-level frequency spectrum components and one-level frequency spectrum components, carrying out Fourier transform on one-level frequency spectrums to acquire wavefront phase distribution of lasers to be measured and amplitude modulation degree functions of the interference fringes, and carrying out Fourier transform on the zero-level frequency spectrums to acquire background light intensity of the interference fringes; and combining the amplitude modulation degree functions with the background light intensity to acquire amplitude distribution of lasers to be measured. The interferometer and the method provided by the invention are in no need of special reference light, and can be applied to detecting complex amplitudes of various lasers dynamically and evaluating light beam quality.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of optical detection, and in particular relates to a Mach-Zehnder point diffraction interferometer and a method for reconstructing laser complex amplitude through the point diffraction interferometer. Background technique [0002] In recent years, the application of laser technology has become more and more extensive. Beam quality is an extremely critical parameter for evaluating lasers. It is generally believed that it can essentially evaluate the transmission characteristics of the output beam of the laser. extremely important. [0003] The existing beam quality parameters generally describe the static performance index of the output laser of the laser system, and do not take into account the dynamic characteristics of the output laser. For high average power lasers (such as heat capacity lasers and all-solid-state lasers), under the combined effects of thermal effects, self-acting mode fields and other ...
