Abstract

The invention relates to a self-calibration method for the thermal deformation of a distorting lens under the effect of high-power continuous laser irradiation and belongs to the technical field of strong laser techniques and adaptive optics. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the thermally deformed surface shape of a distorting lens is self-calibrated. That means, without adopting any heat-exchange measure or changing the structural parameters of the distorting lens, the thermally deformed surface shape of the distorting lens is adjusted in real time by means of a set of driver control signals that are varying along with the time, so that the real-time compensation on the thermally deformed surface shape of the distorting lens is realized. The self-calibration method is applicable to the self-calibration for the thermal deformation of distorting lenses having different laser parameters and under the effects of different laser irradiation time periods. The calibration effect of the self-calibration method is prevented from getting deteriorated along with the increasing of the incident laser power and the laser irradiation time. Meanwhile, the self-calibration method is not dependent on any extra device and can realize the self-calibration function for the thermal deformation of existing discrete drive type distorting lenses.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a technology for controlling a deformable mirror to compensate its thermal deformation surface shape, in particular to a self-correction method for thermal deformation of a deformable mirror under high-power continuous laser irradiation, and belongs to the field of strong laser technology and adaptive optics technology. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of laser technology and the continuous expansion of its application range, how to obtain higher power and high beam quality laser has become a focus of attention and a goal of struggle. However, in a high-power laser system, under continuous laser irradiation, the optical element will form a temperature gradient distribution inside. At the same time, due to the thermal expansion of the optical element material, thermal deformation will occur, and wavefront distortion will be introduced to the incident beam. Although the adaptive optics technology can monit...
