Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of optical heterodyne interference, and discloses an optical heterodyne interference method for removing a non-linear error based on capacitance timing and multi-stage filtering. The method comprises the steps that at least three paths of signals are obtained from an optical path where non-linear error interference elements exist, phase angles, on signal frequency elements to be removed, of the periodic non-linear error interference elements of the at least three paths of signals are made to be different in a corresponding circumference angle range or in a corresponding circumference angle range after integral multiples of circumference angles are removed, meanwhile, signals are filtered through a multi-stage resonant filter in an analog electrical signal channel, a phase difference between each path of measuring signals and a reference signal is computed by the adoption of a capacitance charging timing method, and then displacement calculation, weighting and iterative calculation are conducted through analog-digital conversion so as to remove or restrain the interference elements conveniently. The optical heterodyne interference method for removing the non-linear error based on the capacitance timing and the multi-stage filtering can remove specific harmonic elements of the non-linear error or the interference, the regulation process is very easy, system performance is improved, and cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of optical heterodyne interferometry (Heterodyne Interferometry) measurement, and in particular relates to an optical heterodyne interferometry method for eliminating non-linear errors based on a capacitor charging timing method and multi-stage resonance filtering without fine adjustment. Background technique [0002] The laser heterodyne interferometry system can be used to measure physical quantities such as displacement and length, and is one of the best nanometer measurement methods. The system converts the measured displacement into the frequency or phase change of the heterodyne signal, and then measures this change. Since the frequency of the heterodyne signal is much lower than the optical frequency, the photoelectric signal is easy to process and can be electronically fine-tuned. Points to achieve higher measurement resolution, the resolution can reach picometer (pm) or better. [0003] However, nonlinearity...
