Abstract

The invention relates to a large aperture uniaxial crystal light absorption coefficient measurement apparatus and a method thereof. A collimating mirror, a polarizer and a semitransparent mirror A are sequentially arranged in the emitting light path of a laser; the semitransparent mirror A makes incident light form reflected light A and transmitted light A; a convergent mirror A is arranged in the path of the reflected light A and converges the reflected light A into a supervision integrating sphere power meter; a semitransparent mirror B is arranged in the path of the transmitted light A and makes the transmitted light A form reflected light B and transmitted light B; a convergent mirror B is arranged in the path of the reflected light B and converges the reflected light B into a supervision CCD; a convergent mirror C is arranged in the path of the reflected light B and converges the reflected light B into a measurement integrating sphere power meter; a large aperture uniaxial crystal to be measured is placed between the semitransparent mirror A and the semitransparent mirror B; and a computer is respectively connected with the large aperture uniaxial crystal to be measured, the supervision integrating sphere power meter, the supervision CCD and the measurement integrating sphere power meter. The apparatus and the method can be used to measure the P light and S light absorption coefficients of the large aperture uniaxial crystal, and guarantee the measurement precision.
