Problems solved by technology

[0007] The existing closed-loop control technologies are all proposed on the premise that the target light intensity distribution of the compensation laser beam is uniform by default. If there are modulation factors in the laser light intensity distribution, a single evaluation function setting will easily make the The closed-loop process enters the local optimal solution and cannot achieve the global optimal solution, so the focusing ability of the laser beam cannot be perfectly improved

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of laser beam control, in particular to a method and a device improving laser beam focusing capacity. The method comprises the steps of S1, extracting near field light distribution information of a laser beam, S2, calculating target far field light distribution information according to the near field light distribution information, S3, setting an evaluation function according to the target far field light distribution information, S4, extracting far field light distribution information, and S5, combining the evaluation function and the far field light distribution information to control far field light distribution in a closed-loop mode and improve the laser beam focusing capacity. According to the method and the device improving the laser beam focusing capacity, due to the adoption of the evaluation function which is more attached to an actual focusing limit, an optimal process of the laser beam focusing capacity is easier to control, the method and the device improving the laser beam focusing capacity is not prone to falling into a solved locally optimal solution, and therefore a better focusing character is capable of being obtained.
