Problems solved by technology

The method of adjusting the position of the attenuating film to attenuate the laser light intensity has the following disadvantages:1. The production process of the film is complicated. In order to realize that the light intensity attenuation is different and changes continuously at different positions, the thickness of the film should also change continuously. This is difficult to control during the production process, and it is not easy to achieve mass production. high; 2. The adjustable range of light intensity attenuation is not very large; 3. Under the same working condition (the position where the light beam passes through the film is the same), the light attenuation of different wavelengths is relatively different, so it is not easy to achieve uniformity when realizing the display of the attenuation

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a laser light intensity attenuation device, in particular to a small mechanical variable laser light intensity attenuation device, which belongs to the field of laser devices. Background technique [0002] Due to the high intensity and power of the laser itself, in some applications, it often exceeds the ability of the subsequent device to withstand the light intensity. Therefore, if the light intensity is not properly attenuated, it will inevitably cause damage to the subsequent device. A light intensity attenuator is a device inserted into an optical circuit. Its purpose is to artificially controllably attenuate the light intensity so that the output light meets the requirements in terms of intensity or power. After literature search, it is found that the U.S. patent application number is: 6130984, the application date is: 2000.10.10, and the invention name is: small adjustable light intensity attenuator. This patent introduc...
